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.

    Eyeliner VP boy.

    Maybe he’s born with it, maybe it’s maybelline.

    The “we are out” was the point of the whole thing. Trump never negotiated in good faith.

    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.

      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.

      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.

        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

    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.

    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.
