I think Donald expects your faithful allies to do more efforts in that respect, which would be some relief to your country. He's right, at least if that's what he actually meant. You still don't know what that guy is actually about. We'll see in a couple of months.
Here's my point about this. You guys need upscale, faster transit means to connect everything in your country, while we need some more serious defense to be more credible on the global stage.
You may not care (which I myself don't care about), but if the French consertives are elected over here in 6 months, France's economic and foreign policies are very likely to suddenly get more aggressive. Their policies will be harsher to ourselves first (if that's any comfort to you, yes, we're going to have our asses kicked), then to foreigners as well. And we're just about to notify the Germans that they really need to spend more of their taxpayer money in our common defense, cause we're getting tired of paying for them.
Assuming all people on both sides of the Atlantic will agree on that point, to the least.
