Explaining that time Donald Trump said he'd encourage Russia to invade NATO countries, and just what his endgame is with the North Atlantic Treaty Organization.

At a South Carolina rally last week, Trump conjured up a vague story of telling an unidentified NATO member that he would withhold U.S. help and “encourage” Russia to do as it wishes with allies that do not contribute enough to military spending. Trump said, "'You didn’t pay? You’re delinquent? No, I would not protect you. In fact, I would encourage them (Russia) to do whatever the hell they want. You gotta pay. You gotta pay your bills.’”
