John Kerry rips Trump's ‘disgraceful' NATO speech
 [NYPost] Former Secretary of State John Kerry issued a scathing statement about what he called a "disgraceful," "disgusting" and downright "strange" appearance by President Trump at the NATO summit in Brussels."No, I don't own a mirror, why do you ask?" "I've never seen a President say anything as strange and counterproductive as President Trump's harangue against NATO and Germany," Kerry wrote in a statement on Wednesday. "It was disgraceful, destructive, and flies in the face of the actual interests of the Kerry questioned why President Trump was rebuking our allies publicly while turning Russia, "who has been attacking America's democracy, into his fawned-over ally." Trump, who has publicly praised Russian president Vladimir Putin, brashly criticized his NATO allies for not spending enough on defense during a summit early Wednesday. "The President set America back this morning," Kerry wrote. "He is steadily destroying our reputation in the world. he is undermining our interests." Trump ‐ whose presidential campaign in under investigation for possible collusion with Russia during the 2016 election ‐ is set to meet with Putin in Helsinki, Finland on Monday.
