Even NATO has said other countries need to pay their fair share:

You do understand don't you that "paying their fair share" is somewhat unusual and "foreign" to the entitlement crowd who voted for HillaryNoMore and Sanders? As a result they have difficulty "wrapping their brain" around the concept ... which could be challenge anyway based on the lack of sufficient size to wrap a friggin toothpick.

After all ... it's just their tax dollars going to waste!

And since only the poor, uneducated deplorables supported Trump they don't have the funds to cough-up that kind of money. But the rich, intelligentsia have that kind of money to throw away. So they'd rather blow it.

I do think that American needs to play a reduced role in NATO and perhaps leave Nato.

Make NATO more of a true European security organization.

NATO in its current form made sense from 1950 - 2000. Its form does not make sense in todays world.

Countries were added in an attempt to legitimize our efforts to create a binding coalition, but the responses of the newly added countries is muted by their internal laws regarding international conflicts that were imposed by the Allied countries at the end of WWII.

This would be Germany, but did this also include other western European countries who were formerly under german occupation during wwII?

I'm glad to see that Europe intends to go forward with more responsibility for their own defense - it could lessen our future burdens.
