Then you certainly didn't headed Trump's threats to pull the US out of NATO.

That's your high bar on Trump's reliability with regard to EU's vital interests.

I don't need to explain the sheer idiocy of complaining about the EU's... skeptical attitude towards the Trump administration in general, and Trump specifically.

I think you’re confused - NATO isn’t an alliance if the US is the only one putting in any effort. Trumps specific complaint is (from your own article):

> complained about the defence spending of European allies who committed less than the agreed 2% to defence, particularly Germany

The US wants the alliance, it’s the Europeans who feel they don’t need it (since they aren’t fulfilling their obligations).
