The Trump White House is weighing punishments for NATO allies that do not give their full support to the presidents war in Iran.
President Donald Trump has been furious with several key U.S. allies for not pledging to give their full military might to help him reopen the Strait of Hormuz.
The Strait has emerged as a key point of leverage for Tehran, so much so that Trump threatened to kill off the entire Iranian population if it did not open back up, a threat which he later walked back.
One punishment for U.S. allies would involve moving U.S. troops out of NATO countries, the Wall Street Journal reported. The plan could also include closing a U.S. base in one member country, potentially Spain or Germany.

Petty Trump Revives Bonkers Greenland Threat as He Freaks Out at NATO
Donald Trump resurrected his threat to acquire Greenland after NATO countries refused his demand to intervene in the Iran war.
Trump, 79, on Wednesday wrote an all-caps message on Truth Social about the semi-autonomous Danish territory, the acquisition of which he has claimed is a necessity for U.S. national security.
NATO WASNT THERE WHEN WE NEEDED THEM, AND THEY WONT BE THERE IF WE NEED THEM AGAIN. REMEMBER GREENLAND, THAT BIG, POORLY RUN, PIECE OF ICE!!! he wrote.
Trumps post came 24 hours after a ceasefire between the U.S. and Israel and Iranone which is currently filled with uncertainties, including about the Strait of Hormuz, which Trump had called on NATO members to wrest from Iranian control. But they didnt, causing Trump to make yet another threat: pulling the U.S. out of NATO.

Seriously, everything he does hurts the US in the short and long term. No one fears him anymore. They see him as the clown that he is.
