I love how the criticism is that he's an embarrassment to the international partners. The UN is a failed experiment, the US has been providing the majority of funding while Russia and China have veto power over anything meaningful. If another country has equal footing to the US in the UN they need to step up the funding. NATO has also been a problem. The purpose of NATO isn't to let the US defend Europe, it's a treaty to come to each other's aid in the event of war. If these countries can fund ever expanding social programs, then they can fund a military that keeps Russia in check. It's been a pretty sweet deal for then for the last 70 years to be able to keep their military on the back burner, that was necessary when they where recovering from war, but at this point they have no excuse. It's great we have a president that finally started pushing back.
