He said he would have a deal done in 24 hours when he was campaigning and calls himself the master deal maker but this was an absolute shit show. Him and Vance embarrassed America in front of the world.
If anything should be abundantly clear about Trump to general public after the past decade, if not the past two, it's that he has absolutely no negotiating skill at all.
He's a bully, plain and simple. He couldn't negotiate a round-about, much less an actual business deal.
I ditto your ditto. Very ashamed what Comrade Krasnov and his GOP (Group Of Pathetics) have done to this country. In the past month I've said the word fck more times than my age. That's saying a lot.
Today just proved what everyone, including Zelenskyy, knew since November 5. Ukraine is on its own now, or at least Europe is its only friend. The Putin stooge and his couch-fornicating sidekick will be of no help moving forward.
Trump screwed it up for himself too. Trump didn't have anything to offer in return so he tried to strong-arm him instead. Did he really think Zelinskyy would just sign over the resources without a promise of peace in return?
Can you blame him? He was ganged up on by Trump and the V.P. Trump knew he was on television. So he pretended to be the tough guy. Mr. Zelensky would have none of it. So whatever Trump says on social media is complete garbage.
BEST thing that ever could've happened for Zelenskyy... he would've been screwed over by the US. We are not allies any longer. America has gone rogue...
I’m Anti-Trump, because I’m Anti-Stupid! What a freaking joke… that was the worst moment in US presidential history. I’m so glad Zelenskyy stood up for himself and the Ukrainian people🇺🇦
Good. I hope he never signs that deal and his European allies step in and fill the void the US created. We are about to be part of the new evil axis in alignment with Russia and North Korea and it’s horrifying.
Sorry, but what kind of deals can you make with someone who first calls Zelensky a dictator and then, just a couple of days later, takes it back and can’t believe he even said it? What are we even talking about here?
Good for him! We know this kind of stuff happens behind the scenes in Africa and Latin America and that should be discussed much more but I've never seen a sitting American president publicly shakedown the leader of another nation. He acts like a mob boss demanding Zelensky pay the pizzo.
Zelensky is literally in another league from these Morons...he's from the grownup world of reality where people are dying from these antics = not taking any shit, not kidding butt, not playing the game.
The fact that trump said he wanted to keep the cameras rolling so the American ppl can see this. Yes! Thank you! He just proved yet again what a fucking asshole he is!!
Trump is a liar so when he tried to post that he ended their meeting early, I knew Zelensky was the one who ended their talks and left. Good for him. That man walked up in the WH solo and Trump needed back-up to try to bully 😒. He is not Trump’s flunky, he is President of a sovereign country.
I’m not sure that Ukraine was brimming with rare earth minerals to start, and the we didn’t offer them any security guarantees for signing, so Zelensky probably figures his time is better spent figuring out how to defend his nation without us
I'm so proud of Zelensky!
As to the failed US experiment... many people are referring to the French revolution's answer to dictators & kings... the guillotine.
I'm now thinking even more old school than that... the old English tradition of drawing & quartering treasonous traitors.
Trump's Art of the Squeal Like a Pig... he could have gotten a massive deal on rare earth minerals that America needs... but he couldn't keep his mouth or his lap dog's mouth shut for ten minutes... any of the $140 billion we don't get back is now Trump's fault... plain and simple...
What seemingly everyone is missing, including the press, is that the mineral deal did not have what Trump wanted. His only way of out of signing it was to ambush Zelensky and then throw him out of the White House. Read it.
I have never seen such a rude, undiplomatic president in my life. He truly thinks this is a TV show (he even said this will make great TV). I honestly believe trump has lost his marbles and is living in a different reality.
Good! I believe this would’ve been a step toward Trump getting a foothold in Asia and wanting more and more and more…just like another infamous dictator.
Trump talked like it was a done deal but for the signing. I'm so glad that didn't happen. Trump is a bully. Zelenskyy hurt his feelings by talking back and Trump kicked him out of the White House. Trump's actions are humiliating. JD Vance is taking notes.
The GOP is happily, PRAYERFULLY gutting its own base’s services, and of course Elon is gleefully running amok, so perhaps the base will direct their ire at them. Elon’s a furriner, too. Trump can throw him to the ravening horde and cry victim and it’s just the sort of tabloid melodrama they love.

We are the United Disgrace of America!
About time the Scottish folk kicked him off his golf course and out the U.k.
It’s bullying and it didn’t work
It’s disgraceful watching Zelenskyy come to the United States of America to combat Putin wearing an orange mask!

I am so glad he told Trump to shove it up his ass!
LOL NO MINERALS FOR YOU AND YOU MUSK!

Putin absolutely gleeful
Probably not 😞

This behavior is so appalling that we all need to be doing this right now!
It was Mafia-style strong-arming, and Trump is not accountable for ANY deal he makes except those with Putin and the Devil.

…..I don’t stand with dictator/king wannabes.
Trump basically lost US all it's longtime allies in 10 minutes because of vanity and idiocy and greed.
Watch how they are coping with not being able to afford rent, gas, healthcare and ...G-R-O-C...erh... ?? - E--R-O-E-S 😊
