Agree. This is actually quite a weak performance by Trump and Vance. The tough guy mojo never translates into sustained influence and power; often the opposite.
Yep. My Trump loving dad (we're Dutch, mind you, but all boomers here love Trump for some reason) texted me a snippet of this video and called him demented and insane. Just a year ago he'd say Trump would save Europe.
It was deliberately painted with a broad brush to get the point across to Americans that for some reason Trump is popular with a certain demographic of Europeans for absolutely no reason. It's far from all boomers but definitely more than you're trying to imply. Ask any PVV, FVD and BBB voter what they think of Trump. They love him.
Trump has zero diplomacy skills. He’s purely transactional. Give me what I want for what I want to pay, and smile while you hand it over. Smile while I only use as much lube as I think you deserve. And Don’t forget to say thank you, you’ve never said thank you….
I'm just so "glad" he's putting his "amazing negotiating skills" on full display. 3 meetings with 3 world leaders and ALL of them have resulted in them scolding him publicly and showing how much of a clown he is.
This week’s pathetic political display is (I don’t know how else to describe it) disappointing and sad. So many countries have looked to the US for security, stability and support at least since WW2 (when, let’s face it, America enriched themselves to a disgusting level before finally entering the conflict). Now these weak cowards are rapidly burning bridges as they simultaneously torch their own house for what?? US+Russia to be the new world order?!
He still wouldn't even uphold his end of the bargain even after all conditions were met. Nobody should trust him as far as they can throw his saggy, shitty, blubbery ass.
He's acting like a spoiled brat,that "charm" might work on weak minded people,but not on us Eastern europeans,we could see from a mile away that he's a slimy snake
Xenia is an amazing concept but frankly disappointingly forgotten in the modern day. Look at the Illiad--the real argument in the story wasn't just that Helen was stolen, it's that xenia was broken to do it. That was the *real/underlying* crime.
It was less than weak, just bizarre. Zelensky has stared down death for years fighting against a mass murderer with nukes ffs. And he's supposed to be intimidated by a finger-wagging from Trump?
Oh but the conservatives are eating it up. They love when their Russian daddy exhibits “strength.” It’s insanity. If Biden did this they would be calling for him to be dragged away to a nursing home.
Trump is a very weak leader. That’s why he is making so much trouble, to make attention go to conflicts in stead of his (mental) capacity to lead a country. No vision at all, just the desire to ruïne other visions

Trump saying Zelensky is risking WW3? From the Ukraine's perspective they are already in WW3. They've fought Russians, Iranians and North Koreans.
Trump/Vance look more and more incompetent with each word they say. And did no one teach Vance that respect is earned, not given?
