You clearly don't understand how NATO operates. Or that the US military spending is not driven by NATO, we have our own priorities. But that is just reality. The 2% goal was set in 2014. But even at that time, the US was not the only one who met or exceeded that target. Even then, many were fairly close and the estimate for 2023 had the median at 1.81%. Given that the 2% goal is for 2025, there has been a lot of progress. You know what didn't change the spending? Trump's posturing. While spending has been increasing since 2014, it really took off when Russia invaded in 2022. Besides, it is rich that a career scofflaw like Trump complaining about others not meeting their financial obligations... You can't make that up.
