Trump/Zelensky interview in the White House

Somethings going on here…. 🤷‍♀️
I’ve got a funny feeling Trump and Putin are carving up the spoils of Ukraine.

If Trump pulls out this WILL be a dangerous game.

He’s up to something. He’s looking to China that’s his biggest threat. He doesn’t want to get tied up in Europe.

But why humiliate Zelensky?

Accusing Zelensky of maybe starting World War 3 was nonsense but it’s all down to Trump if that actually happened!
Can’t begin to guess how Starmer, Macron and King Charles are feeling now, after all their good diplomatic words.

This was absolutely appalling. Two grown men acting like playground bullies, shouting down a third . Trump proves again and again that he is not Presidential material.
I wonder what Mr and Mrs America thought of it. A shame really that this came after Starmer's visit. Shameful .

If you have the time to watch, the CNN feed is interesting to get a US take on it.

Vance was wrong asking Zelensky if he’d said “thank you”?
“Yes” said Zelensky “many times”.
“No I mean here, today, in the Oval Office”.

How to kick a man when he’s down.

I can’t quite see what Trump is even offering Zelensky?

But facts are facts. This IS the end game Zelensky. Holding out any longer just puts more Ukrainian lives at risk. It all has to stop somewhere.

I am truly astonished by this 😮

From The Independent -

"Donald Trump appeared to tease Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyas he arrived at the White House on Friday, telling him “oh look, you’re all dressed up.”"

"Turning to members of the press who captured the exchange Trump added “he’s all dressed up today” as the Ukrainian president smiled sheepishly. A clip of the interaction circulating on social media was seized on by “First Buddy” Elon Musk, who quoted “all dressed up” with a crying laughing emoji."

Just despicable.

I thoroughly enjoyed the scene. Trump speaks his mind...no pussyfooting about with this man. How refreshing after Biden and Obama....sucking up and appeasing.

That probably says more about you than we wish to know, disgusting!

I've never seen anything like it. Bizarre. Public display of bullying, 2 against one, by one Head of State to a guest fellow Head of state.

And no sucking up, says a poster above? Of course he's sucking up, to Putin.

I was in tears watching this. Cannot quite believe what I’ve just seen.

Whilst sitting on his bed eating endless burgers and drinking Coke - bring it on - silt up his arteries .....

Pardon my language, but b……s. He’s got more dignity in his little finger than either of them.

I agree with you 100%.

It was very uncomfortable viewing and I think Trump’s behaviour and belittling of Zelenskyy was dreadful.

How simply dreadful Trump and Vance behaving like a pair of bullies.

Trump is no statesman just a vile grandstanding bully. I felt fir Zelensky. The media was no place for that.

Pardon my language, but b……s. He’s got more dignity in his little finger than either of them.

What! Are you for real?

This is a man whose country has been invaded and whose people have been bravely fighting for 3 years.

How can you ‘enjoy’ watching his public humiliation? Sickening!

I’m seeing plenty of rightly-shocked comments about this, but where are our leaders, our politicians? Trump is holding trade sanctions over all of them and seems intent on doing Putin’s bidding. No way should this man be given an unprecedented second state visit here. Appeasing a bully will not bring peace.

Does the draft dodging Trump think that his behaviour has made him look big in the eyes of the world?

Go Zelensky for walking out.

I hope he slammed the door behind him too.
Trump’s appalling behaviour both demeans and degrades his office.

It’s disgusting that, after the insurrection that he supported Trump is trying to remove Zelensky as a democratically elected leader of his country.

It was very painful to watch. Whatever the difficulties in the negotiations there should never have been two bullies humiliating a man in front of a global audience. Donald wasn’t going to get what he wanted so he shouted!

I am absolutely stunned.

Of course very heated arguments take place between allies, but never in public to give the enemy succour.

The only person of any stature in the Oval Office was Zelenskyy, a brave man fighting with everything he’s got for his country.

America must hang its head in shame and frankly all take the blame for the spectacle we have just witnessed.

Absolute disgrace, pair of bullies. I couldn't believe what I was watching.

I hope what this does if nothing else has yet shown how in adequate and inappropriate it is to support Trump!
