President Donald Trump has dropped another truth bomb that has the establishment clutching their pearls - suggesting America should have tested NATO's commitment by invoking Article 5 over the ongoing invasion at our southern border.

Speaking with Fox News, Trump floated the brilliant idea that the United States should have called upon NATO's mutual defense clause to address what is arguably the greatest national security threat facing our nation: the complete collapse of border security under the Biden regime.

Article 5 states that an attack on one NATO member is an attack on all - and what else would you call the coordinated invasion of millions of illegal aliens flooding across our border? If that's not a threat to American sovereignty, what is?

Exposing NATO's One-Way Street

Trump's suggestion exposes the fundamental hypocrisy of our so-called "allies" in NATO. For decades, America has been Europe's security blanket while they freeload off our military might. We rush to defend them at the drop of a hat, but when America faces an existential crisis at our own border, where are they?

"We should have tested their commitment," Trump noted, highlighting how NATO nations would likely scramble to avoid actually helping America in our hour of need.

The genius of this proposal isn't just tactical - it's strategic. Imagine forcing Germany, France, and the UK to either put up or shut up about their supposed alliance commitments. Watch how quickly these globalist nations would reveal their true colors when asked to actually defend American sovereignty.

The Border Crisis IS a National Security Emergency

While the Biden administration treated our border like a welcome mat for cartels, human traffickers, and foreign nationals from hostile countries, Trump recognizes the obvious truth: this IS an attack on America. When millions pour across your border illegally, bringing drugs, crime, and unknown threats, that's not immigration - that's invasion.

Now that Trump is back in the White House, expect more of this kind of outside-the-box thinking that puts America First. Our NATO "allies" have gotten comfortable with a one-way relationship where America gives and they take.

Maybe it's time they learned what reciprocity actually means. What do you think, Patriots - should America have tested NATO's true commitment to defending us?

Finally someone with the guts to think outside the box! This border invasion is absolutely an attack on our sovereignty and NATO allies should be backing us up.

Exactly right Mike. We've spent decades defending Europe and they won't even support us on our own border crisis.

Living in Arizona, I see this crisis firsthand every day. If millions of people crossing illegally isn't an invasion, what is?

As someone who served overseas, I can tell you we've always had America's back but rarely get the same in return. Trump's absolutely right that this border situation threatens our national security just as much as any foreign invasion.

Thank you for your service. You're spot on about the one-way street we've been traveling with NATO.

Brilliant strategy! Would love to see how our so-called allies would have responded to that call.
