Summary

Trump and Zelenskyy’s confrontational Oval Office meeting advanced “mob boss foreign policy” serving Russian interests.

Trump and Vance bullied Zelenskyy when he refused their “extortionate” minerals deal or to thank them despite Trump’s stated intent to reduce support for Ukraine.

Zelenskyy effectively countered their claims by noting Russia’s 2014 invasion and correcting historical inaccuracies, which angered the Americans.

This represents the first openly “anti-US, anti-Western, anti-democracy foreign policy in American history.” Russians embraced it, and Putin ally and former Russian president Dmitry Medvedev celebrated the exchange.

    Acting tough is not what his supporters want. No longer funding endless wars is. It’s really not that hard.

      No, that’s what they claim to want

      What they actually want is a command to trick them into feeling like they’re powerful

        Interesting that you disregard what they are telling you they want and then invent a different motive that coincidentally makes you feel superior. Weird.

          Actions speak louder than words

          Conservatives are lying idiots, believing what they say is what an idiot would do

      Haha sorry that makes no sense. What does shouting at and humiliating a president in front of cameras achieve that just stating the US won’t be a side anymore does not? It was clearly for show.

      And I like your emphasis on endless wars. Stoking up endless wars and enabling the slaughter of children and civilians is apparently fine as long as you are turning a profit since %100 of republicans (and %90 of democrats for that matter) said no to Bernie Sander’s stop arms sale to Israel resolution.

        It is true that Israel holds some power over both parties and they fall over themselves to grovel at their feet. That I cannot explain.
