In the video, she discusses her work “for NATO here in Italy” and expresses her dismay about U.S. actions, including “the U.S. going to attack NATO.” However, she does not go into detail about the operation itself. It should be noted that the U.S. started NATO, a 32-member military alliance formed in 1949.
“NATO is amazing,” she says in the video. “It’s a wonderful thing. And it’s something that we need to stay.”
She discusses how the U.S. is not economically self-sustaining and needs to rely on foreign trade to survive.
“America is not self-sustaining,” she says in the video. “We don’t have the resources to uphold our lifestyle.”
She criticizes foreign policy, stating, “We’re not making friends, folks, and we can lose friends at a rapid rate.”
She drops a curse word in the video and apologizes “on the Cheeto’s behalf,” a reference to President Trump.
Do you think this sergeant should be kicked out of the military?
