John Kelly was annoyed he couldn't get a "full breakfast" in Brussels on Wednesday.

At least that was the explanation from White House spokesperson Sarah Sanders when asked about the apparently agitated body language displayed by President Donald Trump's chief of staff during a meeting with NATO Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg.

Sanders told The Washington Post that Kelly "was displeased because he was expecting a full breakfast and there were only pastries and cheese."

A number of news outlets, including the Post, speculated that Kelly's body language was related to the remarks Trump was making at the time about Germany being "totally controlled by Russia."

Trump made the comment while voicing frustrations about how much Germany pays into NATO and the amount of Russian natural gas the country relies on. Trump also said Germany, one of America's closest allies, was "captive to Russia."

Kelly was upset about the food at NATO breakfast, not Trump Germany remark, Sanders says

If I was Nato I would impose a fine for crying wolf.

A published e mail to the countries involved indicating he wants to change the agreed upon goals would have been better for Coal Miners, he just cost the country a couple dozen lung transplants.

petulant child.

What I don’t get is where the fuck did he come up with the “you owe us money” thing? What the hell does a countries defence spending have to do with owing anybody anything? Yes Canada has a crap defence budget as we all know but how does that correlate into owing money? We have met all NATO funding obligations per say but yes we lag behind in “our” defence budget. It’s like watching a bad late night talk show host every time I listen to him :(. Please let me know what I’m missing about the “owe” thing because I’m befuddled lol.

I agree with other countries upping NATO contributions so we can decrease ours, with goal of all paying the same rate. We got our own debt issues that must be dealt with.

Trump is doing Putin’s bidding to try to destroy nato and you applaud it like the dipshit you are

But you play the role of innocent bystander so well

I had a conversation the other day with a Trump retard. He told me we need to stop paying for the UN army. I wanted to see how this conversation would go, so I asked how many people are in the UN Army and where did they come from. I was told millions and they come from the UN. I went further and asked does this UN army have an Airforce or Navy. I was told they have it all. I then asked how do you join. I was informed you have to go apply at a UN recruiting office, that will decide if you qualify. I said Oh so its just like joining our Army. He said yes but most of their recruiting offices are over seas.:shock:
It was so damn hilarious for me at the time. I was cracking up inside, but I got home and realize these type people are voting and I suddenly got real scared and afraid for the future of this nation. We have dumb this country down to idiots and fools

How in the fuck can you debate or conversate with this kind of fucking stupidity.
I don't speak to them and save myself the aggravation and stress. They fear those with a high school, not home schooled, education.
i wish some of these NATO leaders would stand up, grab their balls and tell trump 'to suck their dick" !!!!!
I agree with the sentiment, but I wouldn't infect my dick with his mouth. He has syphilis and it's infected his brain, too.

All of the countries are paying their fair share to NATO. It’s not the NATO contribution that is the issue, it is each countries own defence budget. If the States is willing to pay above the agreed upon amount good for them. Your contribution to NATO has nothing to do with this. You need to get the facts and stop listening to one of the dumbest governments in the world and the biggest generator of fake/false news.
