The constant calls for restraint on Israel's part as Israeli children as young as 6 months were being stabbed to death in their beds by "freedom fighters" lauded by PLO and PA media also comes to mind.
The blind eye towards how PLO officials spoke to their own people (bloodthirsty talk of killing all the jews) vs what they said in English (calls for peace if only Israel was willing to compromise).
But just googling "Obama and Israel" will give you tons more.
Obama's weak stance on NK and china at the expense of Japanese security was seen as failing an ally.
I'm wondering if you could provide concrete examples of Trump sabotage. I'm curious mostly because I'm guessing we're gonna see it very differently.
Not sure what I said that was crazy?

Apart from that, he was generally a source of chaos at the 2018 NATO summit, 1) demanding that NATO allies increase per-GDP spending ahead of schedule or the US would "go it alone" (and hijacking a meeting already in progress to make these demands), 2) accusing Germany of being "totally controlled" by Russia, 3) and giving a parallel-reality final press conference touting that NATO partners had agreed to significant increases in spending (which said partners denied).

There is a difference between being "a source of chaos" and actual sabotage of alliances.
1) Still doesn't seem that unfair of a demand.
2) You gotta admit that he had a point that using Russia as a source for oil kinda undermines independence. We ran into the same thing in the 70's, it sucked.
3) Classic Trump. but not sabotage.
The same could be said for his predecessor. See Israel, Japan, hot mic with Medvedev.
I think we see what we want to see and forgive "our guy" because we believe his intentions.
