They were not unfounded. What is unfounded is ludicrous suggestions that


our allies "fear" us, don't trust us, or that we'll tear apart NATO. That's absurd and irrational. The leaders might not be happy that Trump indeed pushed them to contribute more of what they pledged to do, and has pushed them for more fair and free trade. Sure they would prefer to have leaders of the past like Biden that only paid this stuff lip service, but I don't think Macron is concerned that we'll attack him or not have his back should France be attacked.

As an aside, despite all the absurdity about Russia the last 4 yrs, and Trump bowing to Putin and other dictators, while I hope it doesn't happen, it would not at all surprise me if Russia starts to ramp up their aggressiveness towards Ukraine, and elsewhere, after Jan 20. Let's hope Sleepy Joe doesn't have to draw another Red Line.
