Under trump, America will not defend NATO.

The last two times he issued drone strikes on Iran, which isn't in NATO, it retaliated.

The first time by hitting an Iraqi military base housing U.S. troops, where over 100 U.S. service members suffered traumatic brain injuries.

The second time by hitting two of Iran's nuclear facilities -- the success of which is much disputed -- Iran retaliated by hitting a US military base in Qatar -- no injury reports, which doesn't mean no injuries, of course, since he won't tell the truth to the public.
Twice he hasn't admitted to previously injured troops, but he did get a ceasefire.

So far NATO looks smart enough to command its airspace and take prisoners who'll be a source of useful intel.
