This is Diplomacy?

JD Vance incited the altercation when he denigrated the Ukrainians. Zelensky had to defend his country.

“As with the war, Mr. Zelensky didn’t start this Oval Office exchange,” The Wall Street Journal’s editorial board writes.

Shameless display of ignorance and bullying.

Trump abruptly ended the meeting, saying it was “going to be great television.” He then asked President Zelensky to leave the White House.

Liz Cheney (R-WY) posted:

“Generations of American patriots, from our revolution onward, have fought for the principles Zelenskyy is risking his life to defend. But today, Donald Trump and JD Vance attacked Zelenskyy and pressured him to surrender the freedom of his people to the KGB war criminal who invaded Ukraine. History will remember this day—when an American President and Vice President abandoned all we stand for.”
