He is, but the organisation is totally dependent on basically one country anyways. You can say a lot about the US, but unlike most European countries their defense is well organised. Guess spending around 3% for decades on defence does buy you a really good defence.
Most European countries are historically below 1.5% on average over the decades. So Europe needs to spend more to play catch-up. Currently Europe strategy is holding off till US help arrives and unless Europe steps up in a big way we will forever totally dependent on US.
Trump could leave NATO or simply not uphold article 5, which would be a disaster for the Baltic's, Moldova and bad for Europe in general.
Please excuse my (probally) poor grammar
