WASHINGTON — President Trump told Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky that he was “gambling with World War III” during a fiery Oval Office exchange Friday — before canceling a press conference and declaring that the wartime leader was “not ready for peace.”
The high-stakes visit — initially expected to include the signing of a framework deal giving the US a stake in Ukraine’s rare-earth elements — went off the rails when Zelensky seemed to condescend Vice President JD Vance.
“What kind of diplomacy, JD, you are [sic] speaking about?” Zelensky asked in a critical tone of voice after a relatively cordial first 45 minutes conversation in front of reporters — responding to the VP’s criticism of former President Joe Biden’s management of the war and statement that “the path to peace and the path to prosperity is maybe engaging in diplomacy.”

Left empty handed, facing total defeat.
Will we break with NATO? and EU?
The war must END.
before Trump became president this time, I said, my family, even if he doesn’t accomplish anything, at least it’s going to be really interesting, really entertaining. Trump has not disappointed. Are you not entertained?!!
Everyone will hate Zalinsky by night fall.
Trump needs to invite Putin to the White House.
Make a mineral deal with him.
Trump needs to work with Congress to change laws.
The clock is ticking.
Did Zelensky called Vice President J.D.Vance a “JD”? If yes, that’s not appropriate. At all...
were is the money z...

The goal should be a neutral, independent Ukraine.
Perhaps 20 years out pleblicities for Russian held areas to vote on rejoining Ukraine. That way Ukraine has 20 years to make itself attractive.
I don’t think J D Vanced cares about what you call him. He is showing his total support for President Trump’s view of the situation.
Zelensky cannot save the Ukraine, Trump’s credibility offers a change to end the war.
NATO and the EU are threatening going their own way. They do not have an effective military without the USA.
End Trans.
How are those Biden crime family deals working out for him?
They have already discussed that.
Need a pro to decipher it. They were totally off script, maybe something was said.
Z was the most inappropriate. Trump was ready to floor him if he even flinched to get up. And Vance just kept beating him with that ball bat, while Trump reloaded. Then Trump laid down the law and told him exactly how it was.
This is better than “Blue Dress Monica”. I am pleasantly entertained.
Zalensky is trapped. Russia wants to bury Ukraine. The US wants our money back
Ronaldus Magnus used to say about deals “A half loaf of bread is better than no bread”
Z needs to evaluate from whom he wants bread or no bread. His call.
Not everyone, the EU and NATO want to keep sucking the teets of the USA.
They fully intend to destroy us by bleeding our system.
Trump refuses to accept that. He has a plan to recover our financial situation.
I believe it will work.
I see nothing else, except total defeat of Ukraine.
Not the Brits, I am monitoring the comment section of Daily Telegraph and it is 70 per cent pro-Zelensky.
And the Telegraph is supposedly pro-conservative.
They have seemed to conflate Trump Derangement Syndrome with Putin Derangement Syndrome and somehow ended up favorably viewing Starmer which a month ago would have been unimaginable.
Already happened.
Is it too late to add Zelensky’s name to the Epstein logs?
Apparently, the one piece you are missing is that Z already signed the mineral rights deal away to the very effeminate leaders of the UK, France, and Germany (cutting the US out).
If that’s true, just wow.
Britain is irrelevant.
