Spicer to CBS: Silly to Ask Who Removed Article 5 Commitment from Trump’s NATO Speech
EXCERPT:
SPICER: "I think as we've commented before, the president's speech, the top talked about Article 5, we were at a NATO Article 5 commemoration, the idea that we would recommit ourselves to something that we're clearly there to celebrate, seems a bit silly, but I -- I don’t about the context of the speech. But I think, frankly, it's -- it's a bit of a -- of a silly discussion, because as we addressed at the time, the president's presence at an Article 5 commemoration and his discussion about NATO invoking Article 5 for the first time ever after 9/11, pretty much speaks for itself in terms of our commitment to both NATO and all 13 articles that make up being part of that treaty."
GARRETT: "Would it be a silly [indecipherable] to find out exactly what happened?"
SPICER: "Well again, there’s a lot of things that happened."
