Donald Trump again disparages Nato allies, claiming troops “stayed a little back, a little off the frontlines” while fighting in Afghanistan in support of US against Taliban.
Only time Nato has ever invoked article 5 – that attack on one member represents attack on all – came after September 11.

Has anyone serious considered the possibility that Trump says things which create market volatility to boost sales of crypto (which his family & friends sell) and gold (which Farage helps sell)? 🤔

Gold notched another record high on Friday, while silver and platinum also extended gains to hit all-time peaks, powered by diminishing confidence in U.S. assets on account of geopolitical tensions and economic uncertainty.
