Former President Donald Trump thanked a surprised-looking Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky for ending the “impeachment hoax” ahead of their Friday meeting.
“[Zelensky] said, ‘President Trump did absolutely nothing wrong,'” Trump said as Zelensky stood silently by his side ahead of their New York City meeting. “He said it loud and clear, and the impeachment hoax died right there.”
The comment referred to Trump’s first impeachment in 2019, which centered on accusations that Trump pressured Zelensky to investigate his political opponent, Joe Biden, and his son Hunter Biden, in exchange for military aid from the United States to fight off Russian-backed separatists.
Zelensky spoke up at the time and said there was “no blackmail,” and Trump was acquitted in the Senate.
“I’ve never told you this, to be honest,” Trump said Friday, “but he was like a piece of steel.”

Apparently so, Larry.
The art of the deal. Trump will end the war quickly. The expression on Zelensky’s face when Trump said he had a good relationship with Putin was priceless. And Trump’s comment that it “ takes two to tango,” was a shot across the bow. Trump let Zelensky know who has the leverage.
Trump’s praise of Zelensky re the impeachment hoax was a way to say he did nothing wrong.
Why doesn’t Putin just fly to NY and present his side of the argument to Pres. Trump?
Oh right, because he’s a wanted war criminal and would be arrested immediately
(wouldn’t that be fun?? lol)

That ain’t relaxed and the leadership being talked about was not Zelensky, it was Trump, you nincompoop.
Zelensky found out Trump is going to end this war and he looked miserable.
Putin is afraid of President Trump.
Putin will have to give up some land but will keep his land bridge to Crimea (and the coal mines). He will have to strike a deal to help Ukraine re-build and let them have Odessa and a way to black sea. Maybe a pipeline for natural gas. Trump could help in the rebuilding of Ukraine. We shall see. No war is a good thing.
Think so, huckleberry?
XI is also afraid of Trump. On the world stage, Trump is NOT a doormat.
Trump is always gracious, even to those who don’t deserve it.
Doesn’t mean he likes you or supports you.
It is how he deals with people.
Yeah, jackazz. Go back to your puny Trump hatin’ hole and tell your two followers all about it.
Zelensky can not be trusted at any time 3 years and the hasn’t done anything except take billions in tax money his gig is war
$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$
Nork rocket man is scared of Trump, too.
Guess Trump has the last laugh on Zelensky
The Donald spent half the post meeting presser gushing on how wonderful it was that Zelensky totally debunked the Ukrainian impeachment hoax and confirmed Trump absolutely and most certainly did nothing wrong and everything right
All the while Zelensky was shuffling his feet nodding in semi agreement trying not to look uncomfortable. The little prick got a lesson
I’m still laughing about that one
Rebuild Ukraine? Zelensky estimates it will take a trillion dollars. We are broke. If there is any rebuilding to be done, it is in America. Our budget deficit this year will be close to $3 trillion. Annual debt servicing costs on our $36 trillion national debt are over a trillion dollars, more than the annual defense budget.
We can’t afford these endless wars, which don’t involve our strategic national interests. Ukraine was/is one of the most corrupt countries in the world. Pumping in hundreds of billions of dollars, which we must borrow, into the rathole of Ukraine must end now.
Never forget that the snek exiled itself from Free Republic for FIVE YEARS because it hates President Trump so much...
This is classic Trump here and it made me laugh so hard.
He has the little snot nose standing right next to him and Trump squashes him with faint praise as Z looks so miserable knowing that Trump knows the real story.
Hilarious. 🤣🤣🤣🤣

It is so much fun to show that slimy reptile all the disrespect he deserves.
“no references re: Ukraine the most corrupt country on the planet?”
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
You are spewing utter false information. Not good.
Here are the official corruption index scores by country :
Denmark corruption index score : 1 (champion of anti-corruption, bravo!)
France corruption index score : 20 (good)
USA corruption index score : 24 (good)
Ukraine corruption index score : 104 (tolerable)
Mali corruption index score: 136 (bad)
Russia corruption index score : 141 (catastrophic)
Liberia corruption index score : 145 (catastrophic)
Iran corruption index score: 149
Venezuela : 177 (dead zone, no hope, total corrupt abomination)

So, of the three, who has leverage?
Could it be the person who captured 30% of the former Ukraine territory and wiped out over 600,000 of his enemies fighters along with his Western contributors who have sent billions and billions, including years of training and boatloads of game-changer weapons (that did not actually game change)?
Or, is it the grifter and conman who has "lost" all of the above?
Inquiring minds would like to know.
