The Trump Presidency : Year V
Naturally, the leftist vultures in the news media and the "I stand with Ukraine" idiots are painting the picture you would expect, but American public opinion will side with president Trump.

Unbelievable exchange between a person in strong negotiating position and a person that has jack shit. Unbelievable that Zelensky is that stupid. His IQ must hover around room temperature.

Zelenskyy proved what most of us already knew. That he is a petulant child wanting more money to pad his wallet.

The Gold Digging Whore thought he could go in and tell the Trump administration how things were going to be. And stating that the U.S.under Obama, Trump, and Biden did nothing but talk. Me thinks that he had zero intention of signing a deal. Fucking idiot, now Ukraine has a higher chance of being carved up like a Thanksgiving turkey. And Trump knows that putting one under severe pressure from two sides will lead to the buckling of the knees. This guy is on my short list in the Dead Pool, not long for this life.

And kudos to JD Vance, a true soldier.

I can see the general tenor of opinion on Twitter I SAID TWITTER, and it supports Donald Trump.

And no, I'm not just looking at posts in my TL. If you have an account on Twitter, perform a search on 'Trump Zelenskyy' and you'll see.

Just like Harvey Dent, "You either die a hero or you live long enough to see yourself become the villain." Zelenskyy is still believing his own press, and if he's half as smart as he thinks he is, he'll catch up to reality either quickly or never.

The Collapse of Zelensky: Donald Trump, JD Vance Destroy Ukrainian Leader in Oval Office Beatdown

President Donald Trump and Vice President JD Vance exposed Ukraine President Volodymyr Zelensky’s faltering efforts to fight peace in Europe in a blockbuster Oval Office appearance Friday.

The joint coup de grâce laid bare Zelensky’s portrayal of Ukraine as a lone David fighting the Russian Goliath by itself, and that all it needs is an escalation of involvement from Europe and the United States to slay the Muscovite giant.

“You’re gambling with World War III,” Trump told Zelensky, adding “your country is in big trouble. You’re not winning… You have a damn good chance of coming out okay because of us.”

The press conference, during which Trump announced an agreement with Ukraine on rare earth elements that would allow an end to the war, went sideways after an irate Zelensky attempted to relitigate the agreement before the press.

Trump and Vance attacked Zelensky, a professional actor, for portraying that Ukraine had been fighting Russia without aid.

“You haven’t been alone. We gave you, through [our] stupid president, $350 billion. We gave you military equipment … If you didn’t have our military equipment, this war would’ve been over in two weeks,” Trump said.

That was amazing to watch. I don’t recall ever seeing the actual, unfiltered, discussion of events between heads of state with such world impact.


As others have said, Z is a petulant child stomping his feet and wanting his way. I get he wants Ukraine back. The simple fact of life, right or wrong, is that is not going to happen. The best Z can hope for at this point is to stop his losses, lick his wounds, and bring this to an end.

Moving forward hopefully there can be plans put in place to check Putin’s expansionist ideas but what he has lost he won’t be getting back. He can choose to stop it or lose more lives and territory.



It’s a big, bad, ugly world out there and the good guys don’t always win. It’s time to compromise and get a deal both sides can live with.






What part of "...Shall not be infringed" don't you understand???

I’m starting to think Zelensky will be taken out not by Russia but by a very pissed off father or mother of a son that this clown’s press gangs kidnapped and threw into the back of a van to never be seen again having been fed right into the meat grinder.

Also, Ukraine is under martial law right now. So the longer the war goes on the longer he’s in power and can keep the money flowing.

I’m betting when and however that war ends he will flee the country.

That was an amazing press conference. It made great TV and Zelensky managed to make Trump look like the statesman. Everyone was all set to fuck the US taxpayer for years to come... Biden told these people money would always be available and that they were doing the lord's work. We do have a huge contingent of war hawks and Russia haters in the country, but surely people can see this isn't sustainable.

With a nod to Toby Keith: Trump (and Vance) put a boot in Zelensky's ass - it's the American way.

Zelenskyy is already on social media, thanking President Trump.

Tonight, has will be on Fox, on Hannity's show I think, unfortunately. He had better take this opportunity to swallow his pride and apologize, even if feels he he has to tap dance around without actually saying "I apologize".

No, Trump doesn't need Zelenskyy or anyone to "make" him look like a statesman. He is, and looks like, a statesman.

I wouldn't make too much of this. Little Lindsey sucks whatever dick is available at the moment. Next week, we'll see him on Ukrainian television glad-handing Zelenskyy.

I love that Trump and his administration is the most transparent in our history. The exchange between Trump, Vance, and Zelensky was amazing. JD Vance was incredibly good pushing back. It was almost a good cop bad cop on him. I absolutely loved the entire exchange and Zelensky was put in his place despite his best efforts to posture. Its incredible to watch. What a great inside view into American diplomacy, especially from a position of strength.

Absolutely. Trump cares more about Ukrainian and Russian lives than their elected leaders. Everything is a contest, and Trump just won that press conference battle.

It's hard to believe this POS keeps getting voted back into office in SC.

"Some things are apparent. Where government moves in, community retreats, civil society disintegrates and our ability to control our own destiny atrophies. The result is: families under siege; war in the streets; unapologetic expropriation of property; the precipitous decline of the rule of law; the rapid rise of corruption; the loss of civility and the triumph of deceit. The result is a debased, debauched culture which finds moral depravity entertaining and virtue contemptible."
