Trump tells Zelensky 'make a deal or we're out' in angry White House meeting
-
Dude... I am saying this from the most unobjective place I can possibly manage. That was was of the most difficult and annoying things I've watched in a very long time. It honestly felt like watching a rational adult deal with his children complaining they can't have a sleepover or something.
I am shocked that A) the White House wanted that embarrassment broadcast and B) zelensky actually remained remarkably calm.
Man what annoying people to talk with lol I'm trying so hard to see this from a different perspective but I can't even fathom how that could be seen as anything other than rude and embarrassing.
"You haven't even thanked us once" lmao

...
Yes. What is different is that now it is going to be every European country in NATO protecting their own interests... from the US and russia.
-
Zelensky knows who he is dealing with: Putin.
-
To be fair, he would also deserve it for slapping that geriatric blowhard to the floor.
-
So Trump and Putin meeting next week? I mean it is about time he finally gets his blowjob, the sexual tension between these two is really something.
-
And in social media comments, people are cheering Trump on, like we finally get to see the “real” Zelensky.
…This is so surreal.
-
If only Zelensky could give steel spine lessons to Starmer, among others.

I keep asking myself if i'm being radicalised by recent events.
It's not normal to be this angry
-
Same here. I actively avoid watching Trump or his administration talk so seeing both him and Vance during this meeting was... exhausting to say the least. I can only imagine what was going through Zelensky's head throughout the whole thing. His face sure said a lot.

That doesn’t stop any toddler from saying they are disrespected at home… Are you saying he wants the numerous tariffs negotiations to fail?!?
I tend to agree with you 100%, yet the stock market hasn’t reacted.

If we're lucky this will be (another) kick for the European leaders to get serious about a possibility of US bailing out completely. Maybe. Hopefully. Please?

This article has some of the grossest stuff I've ever heard.
Trump and Vance accused Zelensky of being ungrateful for three years of American support, telling him he was in no position to tell the US how it should feel about it.
Those years of support were certainly due to no thanks to you. You hated every bit of help that was given to them, and now you want them to thank you for it??? I believe the US could go in and do to the Russian occupied territory what the Russians thought they could do to Ukraine and roll them over almost immediately. But instead, this admin is ready to leave them for dead unless they give up their only key to financing their rebuild without foreign "help." This is not seeking cooperation of an ally, it is extorsion.
Trump accuses Zelensky of "gambling with World War Three". He points his finger at the Ukrainian leader.
"What you are doing is disrespectful to the country - this country that's backed you far more than a lot of people said they should have," Trump says.
Zelensky calmly interjects: "I'm with all respect for your country".
Vice-President Vance interrupts: "Have you said 'thank you' once this entire meeting?"
Zelensky replies: "A lot of times".
Vance again says: "No, in this entire meeting, have you said 'thank you'?"
"You went to Pennsylvania and campaigned for the opposition in October. Offer some words of appreciation for the USA and the president who is trying to save your country."
Zelensky shakes his head and looks away, and says the US will also eventually feel the consequences of the war.
Trump appears visibly frustrated, interjecting: "Don't tell us what we're going to feel. You're in no position to dictate what we're going to feel.
"We're going to feel very good and very strong."
Sorry Don, I'm not feeling the alliance here. Never seen him once talk about Putin this way. I do think he's working on an alliance in this war, only it's not from Ukraine.

The guy as a reputation for having the hardest balls one can carry, of course he wasn’t going to surrender like that.
-
Trump has been craving a Nobel ever since 2016. Sweden can do something extremely funny right now.

Fuck Trump and Vance

Just watched the 4 min video what a pair of a holes. I need to take a shower.
