President Donald Trump, Vice President JD Vance and Ukraine President Volodymyr Zelenskyy sparred during their meeting at the White House to end the Russia-Ukraine War, including Trump telling the Ukraine leader that he’s “gambling with World War III.”
“We signed a deal with Putin. He did not keep it, what kind of diplomacy are you talking about?” Zelenskyy told Vance.
Vance told Zelenskyy his remarks were “very disrespectful.” “I think it’s disrespectful to come into the Oval Office and try to litigate this in front of the American media,” Vance said. “Have you said thank you once?” Vance asked Zelenskyy. “What you’re doing is very disrespectful to the country, this country, that’s backed you,” Trump said to Zelenskyy. “Have you said thank you once?” Vance asked Zelenskyy.
“You’ve talked too much,” Trump said to Zelenskyy. “You’re country is in big trouble. You’re not winning this,” Trump said. “You have a damn good chance at coming out okay because of us.” “If you didn’t have our military equipment, this war would have been over in two weeks,” Trump said to Zelenskyy.
“In three days, I heard it from Putin, in three days,” Zelenskyy responded.
“It’s going to be very hard to do business like this,” Trump added. Trump also remarked during his remarks to the media that a trilateral meeting between Russia and Ukraine, as well as the U.S., would be no “love match” and likely difficult. “They don’t like each other, I can tell you that, it’s not a love match,” Trump told the media when asked how he envisions a trilateral meeting between the U.S.-Russia-Ukraine.
“I think it’s good for the American people to see what’s going on,” Trump said. “I think it’s very important.”

I’ve seen bits and pieces of this throughout the day, but wasn’t aware of the lead up. Like I’ve said elsewhere. You get the measure of the “man” when you place them under stress. All too clear here.
