Only if you were the President (you are intelligent) You see, Trump is a non intelligent entity.

Should we laugh or cry? Hmm, laughter is the best medicine.Who can stand before Trump without trembling in fear?

Seriously now, your President asked NATO to double/raise spending to 4%.The majority of NATO members agreed to to reach the 2% target by 2024.
BUT - we will never pay 4%, because Europe’s biggest threats are not military.As already said, it's quite clear that the larger threat to Europe is ideological, for example the rising authoritarianism in the Eastern Europe. Read my lips, Russia will never invade Estonia, Lithuania, and Latvia. We prefer spend more money on education, on health care, social spendings. We don't want to spend excessive money on military junk we don't need.
And more, a brief historical reminder:
Let's keep in mind that many, many years ago, the Polish dissidents /workers like the Solidarity's leader/like Walesa were inspired by democratic ideals; in Czechoslovakia the Prague Spring was also inspired by values of democracy and liberty at a time when their countries were in the Warsaw Pact. In 1989 the Civic Forum of Vaclav Havel pressed for democratic reforms, and later, under his presidency, the Czech Republic joined the NATO. Those were the real heros who defeated, from inside (from inside, I repeat) the communism, and contributed to the fall of the Berlin Wall.
And now, your racist, isolationist, xenophobic, idiotic President seems determined to reduce NATO to a monetary transaction.In fact,he doesn't give a to the so called western values and democracy. The good old times when the advance of American interests was also linked to the advance of universal values like freedom, democracy, tolerance/diversity are now dead.Caput.
