Sen. Rick Scott Projectile Vomits All Over History To Sh*t On NATO
Classic Rick Scott. Nothing says "nuanced foreign policy" like reducing the entire Allied success in WWII to "we saved Europe's butts" and then using it as a guilt-trip cudgel because some NATO allies aren't cheering hard enough for U.S. actions in Iran. It's the geopolitical equivalent of that uncle at Thanksgiving who reminds you he paid for your college every time you disagree with him about anything. "We bailed you out in '45, so shut up and back our play in 2026, or else NATO gets the boot!"
Scott lined up behind Trump and some in this party like an obedient seal to shit all over NATO on Fox Business, and it got really stupid.
"Well, first off, I mean, Europe would all be speaking German if it wasn't for the American service members," he insisted. "And what we did to save their butts in the Second World War, for them to not support what we're doing in Iran, to make them safer and Americans safer, is just foolish."
"So NATO is going to have to change," he added. "It doesn't make any sense, them not supporting what we're doing over in Iran, not letting us use military bases."
Oh, shut the fuck up already. Firstly, German is the most widely spoken native language in the European Union. And his history is selective.
