Samantha Power came rushing in to defend their honor against Trump with this bit of information: Quote Samantha Power ✔@SamanthaJPower Just another diversionary lie from @realDonaldTrump. Other countries in fact pay 78% of @UN budget. They also provide nearly 100 percent of the 100,000 soldiers & police who help stabilize dangerous places like Mali & Lebanon where the US has important national security interests Expand Many spotted Power making a great point, albeit not the one she thinks she’s making: Quote Stacey@ScotsFyre So...195 countries pay 78% percent & the US pays 22% and you don’t see this as an imbalance?
