Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.) responded to former President Trumps recent comments on NATO, saying that he supports the former presidents calls to get members of the alliance to contribute what would be considered their fair share.
In recent days, Trump has doubled down on comments in which he claimed to have told a foreign leader while he was in office that if their country didnt contribute enough to NATO, then Russia can do whatever the hell they want. Graham said that he supports members of NATO paying a fair share to the alliance during an interview on CBSs Face the Nation.
I want to have a system where if you dont pay, you get kicked out. But no, Im not inviting Russia to invade Ukraine, Graham said Sunday. President Trump is right to want NATO nations to meet their obligation of 2 percent.

Lindsey, you butt licking creep, you know it's not a pool of money but a commitment by NATO countries to spend 2% of their GDP on the military. Trump is trying to impress his hero Putin and you're trying to impress Trump.
