If Trump becomes president is Nato doomed?

It seems Donald Trump doesn't have much regard for Nato, he has recently said that America cannot be solely responsible for defending Europe's borders. He has also said nato members must pay what's owed from the past, I can't see how he can enforce this as the usa is just one nato member, would the usa under a Trump administration tear up the north Atlantic treaty? Im worried about this, Trump has a point but his talk is dangerous in a world with leaders such as Putin about. After all in winter you can walk onto US soil from Russia.
It was either that.....or the priesthood

Only members who " pay their way" the rest are slackers. Anyway Europe will have
It's own army in a few years. )
I think Trump will seriously damage and weaken NATO because he has said there is no garantee the US will honour their NATO pledge to defend any NATO member country from attack. The basis of NATO has always been that if a member is attacked, the other members (especially USA) will come to the resque. I remember during the cold war when the job of the Norwegian military was to hold the major airfields for three days in case of a Soviet attack. Three days was the time the US needed to fly over s significant force.
The security of Europe and the USA will be severely threathened if Trump wins.
