PBS NewsHour

I just watched Mark Shields on the PBS NewsHour and he made some statements that I thought were very insulting and incorrect. He said that the United States has relied on Europe since the ending of World War Two. I guess it is pertaining to Trump not letting Europeans know that he was going to knock out that Iranian general who had a bad track record. Mr. Shields really should know it's been Europe that has been relying on the United States since World War Two. They spend one percent of the economic prosperity on their defense. We've been defending their asses since the end of World War Two. They have free health care, five weeks vacation, retire when they're sixty. All because the United States has been defending them. Mr. Shields really needs to get his facts together. It was insulting to anyone with a high school degree or higher to listen to what he had to say. It was obvious that he did not like Donald Trump, like everyone else at PBS. Get used to it. He's going to be the next President, again. Thank you for taking my comments.
