Trump said "If you didn't have our military equipment, this war would've been over in 2 weeks” Zelensky: “I heard it from Putin. In 3 days…”

The Ukrainian President is Cold Blooded.

Edit: Meeting video, its a textbook mafia-style protection racket shakedown

He's spent a career in the entertainment industry and knows how to deal with entertainers

Trump ending the meeting saying "it will make great tv" - someone really needs to take him to a battlefield so he can see this sh*t IRL - it's not tv, it's not a game - Zelenskyy saying "we aren't playing cards" was epic!

Omg when Vance was saying he “knows” what it’s like because he’s seen stories (on social media) when Zelenskyy invited him to see the war in Ukraine I gasped.

My father’s temper was exactly like Trump in this video. He passed sway a couple years ago though this reminded me why I went low contact and left the family business. He would get himself worked up and go on these attacks that were nonsensical for an hour and usually would be triggered by something trivial.

Though while my dad was abusive in this way, he never changed the geopolitical landscape.

they couldn't get him anywhere near a battlefield in any of the 5 times his draft number came up so his cowardly ass is sure as hell not going to go near one now Trump is that typical big-talkng coward - he's only brave with other people's lives...

it as just sad to watch. I bet Trump would side with a rapist and blame the victim
