    I think Trump is going to rumble about withdrawing, but I doubt it would actually happen. The US wants to be able to swat down any membership applications that they don’t like. That whole “unanimous decision” thing means the US can stonewall potential new members if they want, the same way Hungary has done for Sweden.

      Trump does what Putin wants. And Putin wants the NATO to fall apart. This is not the usual TACO stuff. If it was, then Trump would threaten the other members at least once per week to withdraw which is not the case.
