Throughout his time as president,
#Trump has continuously threatened
#NATO allies with invasion (#Canada,
#Greenland) and continuously insulted and disparaged NATO countries. To distract from the
#EpsteinFiles, Trump starts a war of choice with Iran that the USA is not prepared to fight ( 1 to 10M$ Patriot system missile vs thousands of $30K ISR and attack drones) and without consulting with or building any alliance with NATO members or any other allies. Trump is then angry when these allies do not want to send their personnel and material to fight Trumps war of choice.
BTW I am in no way defending the Islamic Republic of Iran. The Islamic Republic of Iran is theocratic, authoritarian, terrorists regime that has injured and killed thousands of USA service members, hundreds of thousands of Iranian citizens, and victims of terrorism around the world. The Islamic Republic of Iran needs to be destroyed and be replaced with a democracy. The problem is, the Trump administration is exceptionally incompetent and will likely fail to do this or anything similar. However, the Trump administration is very good at causing chaos and breaking things.
A glaring example of this incompetence:
The Trump administration did not take seriously the use of
#ISR and attack drones (UAS) in Ukraine. It was widely known that Russia has been using
#Shahed drones from Iran for the last 2+ years and nearly every night to attack Ukrainian cities. The heroic defenders of Ukraine have developed defense drones and other inexpensive drone defense systems to effectively defend against Russian drones. Ukraine has also developed a large number of ISR and attack drones, which is allowing Ukraine to continue to defend against the much larger Russia. Does Trump partner with or assist Ukraine with developing inexpensive defenses against attack drones? Nope. A week or 2 ago, Trump tells Ukraine that the USA doesn't need their inexpensive drone defense technology.
