Trump Plotting Twisted Revenge on Key Allies That Don't Like His War

The Trump White House is weighing punishments for NATO allies that do not give their full support to the president’s 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 WASN’T THERE WHEN WE NEEDED THEM, AND THEY WON’T BE THERE IF WE NEED THEM AGAIN. REMEMBER GREENLAND, THAT BIG, POORLY RUN, PIECE OF ICE!!!” he wrote.

Trump’s post came 24 hours after a ceasefire between the U.S. and Israel and Iran—one 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 didn’t, causing Trump to make yet another threat: pulling the U.S. out of NATO.

In the balls as revenge of his wife cheating on him.

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.

He still thinks Greenland will be an easy conquest. He has completely forgotten that Denmark and several other countries have said they will fight back if it even looks like t is moving toward greenland.
