Summary
Trump just presided over one of the greatest diplomatic disasters in modern history, with flared tempers, raised voices, and shredded protocol.
Never before has a U.S. president bullied and berated an adversary, never mind an ally, in such a public way.
During a tense Oval Office meeting, Trump and JD Vance attacked Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy, demanding he accept a peace deal with Russia or lose U.S. support.
The conversation devolved into shouting, with Trump accusing Zelenskyy of being ungrateful and “gambling with World War III.”
The meeting ended in chaos, with no agreement reached.
I should watch West Wing some time, I have limited experience with it but am familiar with the premise. :)
You’re right…I think a show inspired by the actual Whitehouse would be more like a “Real Housewives” situation. Gossip, screaming, backbiting, probably throwing stuff. . .and then they’d show outside the oval office itself lmao.
“Housewives” is also one I’ve got the general idea of but haven’t watched, except this one I’m not going to bother with. 😂
I remember the Netflix show Space Force poking fun at the new branch. It was silly, and goofy. (I mean, the legend, Steve Carell, c’mon haha.)
But it was light-hearted incompetence. Like people really wanting to make a difference but they were sabotaged and underfunded.
It’s awful watching one of the most powerful offices in the entire world being run by spiteful ego-fueled monsters that just want to watch the world burn.
Definitely give The West Wing a chance. It’s warm and fuzzy, which we can all use a bit more these days.
I really liked Space Force! That was a fun show; I was sad it got cancelled.
