Senator Mike Lee and Elon Musk have called for the United States to consider dumping the North Atlantic Treaty Organization, also called the North Atlantic Alliance, NATO.

The House lawmaker had previously called the alliance which includes the United States and 31 other nations a “Cold War relic.”

According to the senator, the NATO alliance has to come to a halt, describing it as a “great deal for Europe,” but a “raw deal for America.”

We used to stand for the greater good of the planet.

I know Trump is bad but let's not get ahead of ourselves. The reason that asshole is in office is partially because America refused to stand for the greater good of the planet, at least in the Middle East.
