Political Thread in memory of David Reid. (R.I.P.)

Do you mean Zelenskyy just rolls over give’s Trump the keys to his kingdom and the mineral rights? European politicians and their supporters are not going to let that happen. No chance.

No, of course not, Zelensky should not be rolling over and giving anything away, he simply signs the deal which compensates the USA for the billions of dollars worth of financial and military help the USA has given Ukraine over the last few years, or he can be stroppy, tell Trump and the USA to do one and try negotiating with Putin, or continue the war with just Europe's backing. Best of luck with that one.

Zelensky must know what Trump is like, he should know how to deal with him, it's not hard, even Two Tier Kier can do it, but with the future survival of his country at stake he allowed himself to get drawn into a war of words with Trump, another war he was always going to lose. Hopefully for Ukraine the situation can be retrieved but Zelensky will have to get off his high horse first.

Having watched the exchanges on TV, it is obvious to me that Trump and Vance were exceptionally rude, which appears to be Trumps way, to Zelenski.

While Zelenski was trying to answer questions they continually talked over him and started finger pointing, this was totally uncalled for, but the arrogance of Trump was more than apparent.

If I had been in Zelenski's position I would have got up and told Trump & Vance where to go, before walking out.

It is obvious the bullying Trump & Vance were not getting their own way so as per normal they turned to personal insults.

Again this was some payback to Putin for the support he gave to Trump. Since Vance actually stated he theought Zelenski had supported Karmila Harris for president.
