Trump Anti-NATO?
In the United States, throughout Europe, and all around the world, the public is clamoring for imaginative solutions and new leaders to meet the challenges of our global society. Increasingly voters are rejecting old, tired and misapplied 20th-century solutions to the real, important and pressing issues of the 21st century.
Whether or not you agree with Donald Trump, it is painfully obvious he has some fresh, imaginative and futuristic visions, possibly inspired by his and others famous television programming. He is willing to explore strange new ideas, to breathe new life into the Republican Party and the civilization it created, and to boldly go where no politician has gone before.
During the ongoing 2016 Republican National Convention Donald Trump “…explicitly raised new questions about his commitment to automatically defend NATO allies if they are attacked, saying he would first look at their contributions to the alliance“.
By initiating a political and public discussion of a possible US exception to, or exit from, the NATO Military and Political alliance Trump is getting the national and international attention he craves. More importantly, he is providing a great public service by opening up the heretofore closed Overton window of mainstream media discourse regarding NATO failings and abuses.

There are many closed minds that will try to readily and quickly dismiss any change in the US commitment to NATO as impractical and impossible. However, a closer look at the construction and mechanics of NATO will provide a plethora of viable options for redefining the US participation in NATO. Of particular interest is the NATO Partnership for Peace (PfP) program.
