Oh great, just what we need—Spain getting the boot from NATO ’cause they can’t dig deep enough into their pockets! I mean, who needs a sunny holiday destination when you can have a military budget, am I right? 😂💸

Look at that, even Trump thinks Spain’s a bit of a slacker in the NATO gym. Maybe it’s time for a siesta from those defense budgets, eh? 😏💸
