No, not if it comes with the strings attached that Trump thinks that the size of the US military gives him the power to demand. He will have no allies soon, which for the sake of American people, is not a good place to be.

Mr Trump. Withdraw from NATO.
And I mean that.

We will take what comes.

Trump threatens to do a lot of things then doesn't fancythat and maybe like you he doesn't understand how NATO works.

A one word answer won’t suffice with such a loaded question. All I will say is it’s obvious you don’t understand how NATO operates.
To put it simply, they are there to defend other member countries who are Attacked
Trump attacked Iran.

It's an Alliance so I sort of thought the name was the clue.
Trump may think the US is invincible but I still believe united we stand etc etc

Trump is threatening to pull out. And I dont blame him.
[I dont think he can expect NATO to help with Iran though, personally].

Do we want the US financial support to NATO?

A yes or no answer will suffice.

Yes.
