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.
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.
What this fuck is this even. Not a single coherent sentence spoken, I wouldn’t say you can even call this a conversation, just unintelligible babbling from both sides.
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.
He did handle it well.
That: “I heard it from Putin” should go down in history.
This is one of those clips I just don’t really want to watch, you know? Like two beheadings one cup sort of thing
Vance is a moron. Did you say thank you? Uh, yeah just today and previously in front of the entire house of representatives Bozo.
I didn’t think it was possible to find a more irritating person to listen to than Trump. But this idiot proved me wrong. What a sniveling little evil henchman.
It’s insane that Trump has both manchild JD and mega cringelord Elon on his team. If Elon and Vance ever do an event together the venue will implode from their lack of charisma.
Jesus fucking Christ. What a fucking slug Trump is.
Its all going according to Russias plan. Make Zelensky look like a bad guy to the MAGA freaks who wont argue when the full invasion happens.
Its pretty clear its on Europe to keep the continent safe. The US is out of the conflict.
The US is out of the conflict.
Maybe, if Europe is lucky. The other very real possibility is that the US has switched sides.
The US is out of the conflict.
Until they turn to focus on Greenland, Canada, Mexico, and Panama.
Zelenskiy should turn around and give that mineral deal to the EU
Yeah, my first thought what that they were really giant thin skinned snowflakes, but it’s more likely their plan was to latch onto anything and get heated in an attempt to bait Zelensky into an outburst.
- Make Zelensky the bad guy
- Walk away from negations
- Declare the only way to bring PEACE to Ukraine is to send US troops in to halt the fighting
- Continue working towards giving it to Putin
Yeah.
Fuck.
I think it’s disgusting that trump and Vance are so blind to the fact that Zelenskyy has done a lot more for his country in a war than trump or Vance would do in 4 years for America.
They’re not blind, they are fascists trying to normalize invasions and dictatorships.
They are not idiots, they are evil.
Trump is definitely also an idiot.
“Idiot” is an understatement
Did Vance ever serve?
Military journalist in the USMC.
Who’s the dictator here exactly?
That video is hard to watch.
Do not under any circumstances give into the Orange Turd.
I was just looking at another post of this in the same instance and it was deleted. Tf?
Might be because it was a twitter link.
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!
