Former Trump Defense Secretary Mark Esper said he is "concerned" about international relations under a second term for his ex-boss, and then predicted what it might look like.
Esper appeared on CNN Newsroom with Jim Acosta, where the two discussed everything from Trump's recent attacks on a deployed service member to the former president's story about denying NATO allies assistance when they're attacked by Russia, unless they put up cash.
On the latter subject, Esper said Trump views NATO as "transactional" like a golf club where only paying members can get access.

Esper also said he was concerned about what would happen if Trump became president and then took away all support from Ukraine.
