European Leaders Appear United Behind Ukraine With a Coordinated Message After White House Smackdown
Gateway Pundit ^ | 2/28/25 | Brian Lupo

Posted on 02/28/2025 6:06:13 PM PST by hardspunned

During what was supposed to be a cordial meeting, followed by a lunch and a joint press conference between President Trump and Volodymyr Zelenskyy, fireworks erupted when Vice President JD Vance urged diplomacy and called Zelenskyy out for “trying to litigate this in front of the American media” and pointed out that he is “going around forcing conscripts to the frontlines because [he] has manpower problems.”

After making a veiled threat to the United States, claiming we don’t “feel it” now because we have a “nice ocean” around us but “will feel it in the future,” President Trump inserted himself telling Zelenskyy not to “tell us what we’re going to feel.”

“Don’t tell us what to feel. We are trying to solve a problem. Don’t tell us what to feel because you’re in no position to dictate that. Remember that. You’re in no position to dictate what we’re going to feel,” President Trump said. “You don’t have the cards right now. With us, you start having cards…you’re gambling with the lives of millions of people. You’re gambling with World War III.”

Soon to be Muslim countries. At that point, Russia is a better ally.

LOL yaa they are full of empty promise and feint praise, lets see them put money and blood where those words are.

They won’t, it will be a glorious embarrassment if they end up having to go it alone, they will watch Ukraine get destroyed while sipping cocktails smelling their own farts debating how it was enviable and they really could do nothing.

Without America as a backstop they know it fails, they have even said as much. Effete morons.

The Europeans put Zelenskyy up to it? They wouldn’t behave that way but they can send Z to show up in a black sweatsuit.

“going around forcing conscripts to the frontlines because [he] has manpower problems.”

Hard for me to believe Vance is that stupid: we forced conscripts to the front in WWII-- even the Marines had to ask for reinforcements from conscripts once the casualty lists started coming back from the Pacific.

Europe has shown the world twice over how collectively stupid it can be, if it feels it needs to do so again it’s on them

Here's what I got out of this.

1. Trump was honest and didn't hold back. He told Zelensky that we were his best option for peace. And he needed to sign a deal for mineral exploration with us.

2. The Euroweenies desperately want access to Ukraine's oil and mineral wealth, worth possibly trillions of dollars. Trump let them know if they want it, then THEY have to do the fighting.

3. Trump just let the Democrats know that their money laundering operation in Ukraine has ended for good.

And you what the true irony is? Trump may yet get a deal for Ukraine's minerals, AND he may get a deal from Putin for huge supplies of aluminum! Biden could NEVER have even come close to pulling that off!

The Euroweenies have been living in our basement mooching off us long enough.

It’s time they moved on and found there own way in the world.

The atom bomb saved us. We had it. Hitler & Yamamoto did not have it.

They are united as leftists with the Democrat party. This is all about preserving their political power.
