Very well said.

All Trump wanted was this mineral deal signed.
I think it was becoming clearer that Zelensky wasn't going to sign something without some guarantee for his Nation's security in the future.

Trump goes on about a deal but WHAT is that deal he is to set out to negotiate.
How much or what minimum of Ukraine would be surrendered to Russia.
What guarantee would be in place were Russia to invade again.
What else would he think Russia should have for ending its invasion into Ukraine.

That's before he paints the picture of UKRAINE's security in the future

Trump never answers any of THAT.

All he's come up with is this mineral deal, in order to get back funds the USA has given Ukraine.
That's the only deal he's set up.

Now fine, USA workers in Ukraine in the future with this minerals deal.
MAY prevent Russia invading again, for as long as USA workers are there.
Still again, where is the security for those workers and Ukraine from Trump.
He NEVER answers that.

What about Russia being made to bear costs of rebuilding Ukraine.
Or is his plan to leave them with the bits of Ukraine they've taken so they need to see to that themselves.

However how is anything more handed to Russia on a plate, ( not as to Crimea that is gone).
Going to be anything other than a reward to Putin and Russia for this invasion.
Plus if Ukraine is denied NATO and/ or EU membership to further give in to Russia.
Where is there any idea of a real and lasting peace plan for UKRAINE's future security in anything Trump is advocating at present?

Trump is clearly unhinged, he's also surrounded by backside licking creeps.
How can anyone deal with a leader who unless you agree 100% with him, then he'll get angry and cut you off and OUT.
( Starmer got nothing from Trump other than on things, I think we can, I think we will,.
THINK isn't a firm positive, it's a possibility and possibilities can easily turn into not being possible after all).

That's tyranny and dictatorship not leadership.
He likes crawlers and only yes people.
He shows no real respect to most others.
Plus once anyone may dare to disagree with him, his paranoia of him always having to be right, kicks in and he explodes as like yesterday.

Really frightening for the USA that is in my view, plus for the World too.

What people don't seem to realise is that ukraine has it's own manufacturing capability now for drones and ammunition. They are actually in a pretty strong position now to defend the land they have. It's of course a very different thing to push the enemy out as they are dug in, but Russia need a break in hostilities to re-arm and re-group, Ukraine don't need this time.

Going forward over say the next 12 months, if America continue to side with Russia .... are they going to arm russia and put boots on the ground in support of russia? I don't think thats possible at this point, but you never know

Trump is not taking an inward looking posture at all, he has made america a predator. Take greenland, take panama, take Gaza, take minerals from ukraine and we are only 5 weeks in to his presidency

America put a mineral deal on the table to Zelenskyy and told him to sign it without reading it. That doesn't equate to a deal to me

Trump and Vance looked like bullies, neither of them covered themselves in glory. They wouldn't let Zelensky speak, and it was more difficult for him as his first language is not English. Yet they suck up to Putin. Pair of idiots and they showed it.

Nothing was lost in translation. The world see two morons, with no intelligence, both incredibly unfit for their jobs, trying to bully a solider.

Here is the full 50-minute conversation between President Trump and President Zelensky.

There are a lot of politicians claiming Zelensky was "ambushed."

There was a full 40 minutes of dialogue before the "fireworks" started.

The president insisted throughout the first 40 minutes that he was focused on peace.

Zelensky responded by strongly pushing back on a ceasefire with Russia and demanded that Putin pay for the entire war.

JD Vance jumps in at the 40-minute mark to clarify the difference between Trump and Biden and their approach to the war.

This apparently ticked off Zelensky which is when the fireworks started.

I agree.
It was very uncomfortable viewing indeed.

However it's at Trump's and Vance's door that this shameful event unfolded.
It was more like they saw Zelensky as the aggressor in the conflict with Russia and not how it really is, that Putin and Russia ARE the aggressors AND invaders.

Best thing to end this war is for an election in Ukraine, get him voted out, then they can bring about ending the war.

No, what Zelenskyy was saying was that Putin could not be trusted, in 2012 he signed along with Merkel, Macron and Putin a ceasefire deal and then in 2014 Putin invaded Crimea, pointless going for a ceasefire with no guarantees .....Putin would just rearm and go again in a few years time ...I have not heard one word of criticism towards Putin with regard to the invasion of Ukraine, dont you think that is odd for someone who says he is not taking sides? yet Trump has plenty to say about Zelenskyy...he is a dictator, unelected, a comedian....etc maybe if you watched for yourself and wrote your own thoughts rather than copying and pasting what someone put on X it would be better

Zelensky disrespected the Oval Office by not wearing a suit and tie

Someone even pulled him up on that.

Even members of the Ukrainian are now calling for him to be impeached.
