They already had these sorts of things (and Denmark, as a NATO member, was already pretty unlikely to permit Russian basing there). https://avalon.law.yale.edu

      Ah, a truly classic ad hominem. I do not have to take the Trump administration at its word. I'm not a moron.

        Snarky comments deserve snarky replies so there you have it. You won’t have to take the Trump administrations word you’ll just have to read the agreement and accept the facts of it even if it doesn’t fit your preconceived political narrative.

        > Snarky comments deserve snarky replies so there you have it. You started the snark. Shallow dismissals do not merit detailed replies. > You won’t have to take the Trump administrations word you’ll just have to read the agreement and accept the facts of it even if it doesn’t fit your preconceived political narrative. Here's an idea: Why don't you read the agreement and if it is actually a significant change then you can come back with some facts instead of just blindly trusting the administration just because it makes you feel good. Until some actual evidence is presented, none of us are required to accept the word of people who have demonstrated repeatedly that they are allergic to the truth.

Shallow comments shouldn’t be posted to begin with. > Here's an idea: Why don't you read the agreement and if it is actually a significant change then you can come back with some facts instead of just blindly trusting the administration just because it makes you feel good. Why do you think it makes me feel good? Donald Trump belongs in jail. He has completely mishandled our relationships. Doesn’t mean that this agreement is the same thing we already had or whatever.
