73. He says Spain owes NATO funds....

Right now, the U.S. is $4 BILLION in arrears to the United Nations. He doesn't have much room to talk.

Taking over Spain's air bases would be another act of war. Is he willing to take on NATO? Or, I should say, is he willing for the U.S. to be bombed out of existence?
