Summary

Trump and Zelenskyy’s confrontational Oval Office meeting advanced “mob boss foreign policy” serving Russian interests.

Trump and Vance bullied Zelenskyy when he refused their “extortionate” minerals deal or to thank them despite Trump’s stated intent to reduce support for Ukraine.

Zelenskyy effectively countered their claims by noting Russia’s 2014 invasion and correcting historical inaccuracies, which angered the Americans.

This represents the first openly “anti-US, anti-Western, anti-democracy foreign policy in American history.” Russians embraced it, and Putin ally and former Russian president Dmitry Medvedev celebrated the exchange.

        That was the most beautiful building? I hate Trump but it’s so plain. I was expecting something actually cool looking.

            No one said Trump Tower is better, only that the original building should, by basically any metric, be considered “among the most beautiful in New York”.

              Did you look through the second link? Or just open one grainy b&w photo and make a snap judgement?

                Yea dude, it’s got a fancy entryway visible even in the first photo that I suppose I should have mentioned, and a lot of interior stuff that is specifically not part of the façade, which is what people had asked him to keep on the lower floors.

                I’d say try harder but you might hurt yourself.

                  Sure campbells enjoy your McDonald’s, and bucky’s gas station architecture some of us appreciate art and class.

                  I’d say try harder but you already have hurt yourself and it won’t help anyway.

          Maybe it looked better in person and the photos don’t do it justice. That said, the front entrance is gorgeous. I think the second link outlines its details better. I’m a fan of art deco.

            I didn’t see the entrance. Yeah that’s a big loss for sure. Come check out Detroit, all our old buildings are Deco.

            I live near Detroit, The Guardian Building especially the interior. I did a move job there for Wayne County. Beautiful building. One Detroit Center and The Fisher Theater too. The Renaissance Center can get pushed into the river though.

              Not really. It has more of a “show us what you consider good so we can tell whether your taste is actually decent and your opinion is worth considering, or your taste is kinda whack in the first place” energy.

        Wow, they replaced boring with tacky. Yea it was a downgrade but c’mon, that thing’s a plain block of concrete with a couple of carvings so high up that no one can even really see them. I was expecting it too at least look like the Flat Iron building or something(which isn’t wild, but at least it has texture).

          Definitely a Brutalist structure. A building designed by an architect like Paul Rudolph would have done that style justice

            I even gave you an example of where my preference was leaning and sure as shit wasn’t that. You’re either too stupid to communicate properly or one of those broken people who think trolling is fun and frankly I don’t have time for either.
