If European allies are being called on to "defend" the US, why hasn't Trump asked our Gulf Allies to pony up some troops, military equipment and $ to open up Hormuz? Probably because they are too busy gifting planes and "investment" money to Trump and his family. Wouldn't want to burden them with too much after they did all this for our President, right?

And make sure our Gulf Allies get their pictures taken with Trump and Netanyahu so we can have pictures for posterity. I'm sure the folks in the Middle East will post that picture up on their walls honoring their heroes.
