Sounds like the Defense Industry doesn't want anybody upsetting the apple cart.
I wonder if these powerful businesses could come up with a solution?

As I always said, the US never cared about the defense expenditure of European countries except as a way to bolster US exports.
It was always about extortion and never about defense.

Yep, they were fine with 'footing the bill for European defense' as long as enough members bought F35s and whatever other pointless toys the US produced. Only France basically stuck with producing everything domestically.
Trump never really understood what that unspoken part of the bargain really was about. If Europe is going to actually spend 2% of GDP, they're going to keep that money domestically as much as possible instead of sending all that spending overseas in dollars.

I wonder if he understands the conflict between "open market" and "tariffs," or if this is just a case of him not understanding that other countries get to make their own policy, or what.
I don't want the patient of the US to be operating under Maxim 13.

We want Greenland. We think you are all worthless freeloaders. We wish to kill your businesses with tariffs because you dared to sell us things (and we don't care how bad that will be for our people. My voters are too stupid and brainwashed to care and the opposition doesn't matter)... Also buy our weapons!
