A meeting at the White House between Ukraine’s president Volodymyr Zelenskyy and Donald Trump descended into a bitter argument in front of the press in extraordinary scenes as Trump demanded that Zelenskyy show more gratitude to his administration, while accusing him of ‘disrespecting the US’.
Trump also told him that he needs to make a deal with Putin or ‘we are out’, threatening to cut US support for Kyiv.
Gotta say, that was surprisingly hard to watch.
Zelenskyy was gonna get screamed at no matter what. This is just a matter of controlling the narrative and manufacturing consent to stop military aid.
The “we are out” was the point of the whole thing. Trump never negotiated in good faith.
HE’S NOT SPEAKING LOUDLY!
I’m still baffled that so many people think this toddler is competent.
As insane as this is, Trump and Vance have not forgotten that Zalensky aligned himself with Kamala Harris before the election. So, they are wanting to see some ‘Humble Pie’ eaten. Its difficult for Zalensky to nagivate this hard feeling, and addressing it directly might be counter productive. It will probably work out in the end. Edit: its shocking how many downvotes this comment has already. Particularly as its just an overview of that position of things, not a personal opinion!
Trump proposes bad deal for Ukraine, expects Zelensky to sign it and lick their boots tso they can say they’ve “shown his his place”.
It was never about Ukraine, it was a power move that failed because the whole fucking USA president office is a giant bad joke.
Don’t fucking run apologetics for the filthy fucking nazi traitor scum. This shit is absolutely unexcusable. Trump needs to be removed and tried for treason immediately.
Jesus fucking Christ. What a fucking slug Trump is.
