When it comes to women in leadership roles this country is very backwards ! It’s shameful that the ERA still hasn’t been passed! What is wrong with this country? We always brag that we are the greatest country on earth but we can’t even pass the Equal Rights Amendment? That’s pretty pathetic and Americans voted in a very backwards thinking Trump!

What Trump tried to do to Zelensky is what he insists on from his adversaries when coming to a “deal”. He insists in a final humiliation. It’s a game. It’s a pattern.

He is a bully. He miscalculated and became the humiliated one!

Trump stomped on America that day for Putin. That’s the message. He is a Russian asset. Treat him as such! Don’t treat him like he’s the POTUS.

If everything he’s done and behaved are not the actions of a Russian asset, tell me what is. 🤔

The GOP now supports Russia over America.

It’s going to be a long and dangerous four years and I will be wearing these kinds of shirts everyday until this nightmare ends 👇

This is right to the point. Trump changed his mind about the deal which I’m pretty sure Zelenskyy wasn’t too happy with. But Zelenskyy was subjected to abject bullying and meanness, in public. Trump pivoted, perhaps pirouetted to spoil the deal and humiliate Zelenskyy rather than take heat for what some might have felt to be a bad deal. For Putin!

The felon had no intentions on any agreement with President Zelensky, he was only going to take the minerals and help putin with the war, after all, putin owns the felon and musk. Even musk's son poke what he heard his father state more than once, he told the felon he was not the POTUS, he even said after that, he told the felon to shut his mouth.

Trump is playing Putin's cards. Trump is afraid of Putin. Mark Meadows told that to Congress after January 6th insurrection. Its Putin who wants all of those precious minerals in Ukraine. Hitler wanted to get his hands on it too. The people of Ukraine burned down their cities and set the oil wells on fire so Hitler wouldn't have access to it. Russia has always hated Ukraine. Also, Ukraine in history never was under the Russian government until the end of the second world war. Ukraine belonged to the Mongolian Empire. And Russia was never able to defeat Ukraine until the end of the second World War.

They supported Russia Over America since before Trump became president the first time. That's why Trump visited Putin while he was campaigning back then. When I saw that trip in real time I decided right then I would never vote for Trump. Why in the world would a non-politician go visit the head of another state while campaigning?

Bonnie Rudolph's avatar

Putin probably gave Trump illegal campaign money. Putin and Trump have been having dealing all the way back to the 1970's. KGB buddies! I read that one in the Irish paper. The land areas that Putin is holding right now and Ukraine is trying to push Putin's Army out of, is where the mines and the minerals are located. Ukraine could be a very wealthy nation. Europe will deliver Ukraine. It's just a matter of time when one of Russia's drones makes a mistake and hits Poland or Romania or some other NATO country. I am praying that it happens. That will get America off her ass and force the stinking Republicans to oust their rotten master in the White House.

You are so right and it’s up to us to get rid of him because there isn’t one decent person in the Republican party who wo admit that they are after a dictatorship with Republicans only. This is their goal they are all TRAITORS ! It doesn’t appear that there is even one Republican who is an honorable person! We have to protect our country with help from the Democrats we must volunteer! I am still stunned that Trump with all his crimes was allowed to run for the Presidency! Not that many years ago a candidate from Colorado a Democrat was demonized for being in a boat with a woman not his wife but with others too! His campaign was over big scandals! Now we have a rapist felon, monster who wants to impoverish millions of American citizens so he can give the money they earned through Social Security to multi millionaires!

Zelensky will never resign. He has a 54% approval rating from his people. And Trump showed just how ignorant he is on the cameras. Ukraine is under Martial Law because they are at war. When a country is at war and under Martial Law, there are no elections. It can't be done. This is the reason President Roosevelt remained in office till he died during the second World War. And Churchill continued as the Prime Minister of England. Trump is truly unfit for office. He has no idea of how to run a country or anything except to destroy everything he touches. And like Zelensky said to both Trump and stooge Vance, you don't care because you are protected by 2 oceans. But when World War 3 gets started, then you will care. Our oceans will no longer protect us.

Donald was determined NOT to help Ukraine. He planned to publicly offend Zelenskyy. He did the same with Mike Pompeo and Mitt Romney when they crossed him. He gave them false hopes, then he let them down. Typical psychopathic behavior!

Zelenskyy is the West's first line of defense against Putin, and we had better recognize it like Europe and Britain obviously did. Musk is Putin's puppet, not unlike Donald.

President Zelensky was the only adult in the room, and the only person with courage. All that Bigmouth could do in his ignorance was shout him down with lies and baseless attacks, his trademark, as Vance's blather was a pure insult. A minder for Donald never does any good, because he runs his vile mouth no matter what. A disgusting display of depravity. JD is a disgrace to the uniform he once wore.

President Zelenskyy has dignity and courage. Not to be mistaken with machismo and posing - Bigmouth and Guyliner, if you are listening. Sure it is impossible to get Donald shut his ugly mouth.

I support Ukraine’s fight for their homeland, culture, and language 100%. I found it heart-rending that Russians bombed a tiny village, the only thing they could destroy was a library, rich with Ukrainian books. Ukrainians want to belong to the EU, hoping for European standard of living. Life in Austria or Germany looks like dream for the average Ukrainian citizen. They want NATO and EU membership and Putin actively stops them.
