Here’s an interesting bit of reporting from the NYT:

“Earlier this morning, Republican and Democratic senators met with Zelensky, some posting smiling selfies with him and some anticipating a signing ceremony for a mineral deal in a few hours. The contrast between that meeting and what transpired inside the Oval Office is a strikingly public display of the divide between President Trump’s approach to this war and the sentiment of many Republican defense hawks on Capitol Hill.”

I wonder if the neocons whispered enough sweetness into Z to make him want to keep the game on for more funding deals.

He learned something about the Executive Branch today

Previously he had been dealing with a “stupid” president as Trump said

So the Senators Wormtongued Zelensky by stroking his ego prior to the meeting with President Trump?

Zelensky went into the meeting with Trump thinking that he had Congress on his side?

Who knows. I and my wife are going to celebrate.
Why? Because nothing can get done with this little gypsy in the middle.
