Almost a third of Allied troop deaths in Afghanistan came from non-U.S. NATO Allies. Our Allies deserve an apology.
Trump on NATO: "I've always said, will they be there if we ever needed them? That's really the ultimate test. I'm not sure of that. We've never needed them. They'll say they sent some troops to Afghanistan and this or that. And they did. They stayed a little back, off the front

When does a statement like this morph into foreign interference.
Bessent pushes Albertan independence from Canada: "Albertans are very independent people. There's a rumor they may have a referendum on whether they want to stay in Canada or not. People are talking. People want sovereignty. They want what the US has got."

Canada is our friend and ally—and one of our biggest trading partners. Threatening Canada like this hurts America. Our citizens will pay for it—literally, as trade and travel plummet. Trust and friendship, by the way? Easy to damage, pretty hard to repair.
