It was very very clearly an ambush

Intentionally or unintentionally, the White House doing stuff like this is going to leave the impression that was an ambush, which might do even more damage to America's international reputation than what just unfolded.

Trump is the end of the US dominance.
As trump said, "this will make great television".
Embarrassing for anyone who supports our allies.
Not ever going to happen.
SCOTUS gave DJT full reign to do as he likes and therefore,unimpeachable.
America= mortified for anyone to see our leader who answers the door in his underwear, holding a Coors, picking his nose and eating it while plotting how to destroy it all

Intimidation and force are well known as unethical negotiating gambits

diplomacy seeks mutual benefit
extortion relies on intimidation and force
A watching world knows the difference
#StandWithUkraine
#StandWithNATO
Just this morning I heard a MAGAt chortling about how astute this was and how it "dealt" with a warmonger.
Trump should be embarrassed as well but he’s too stupid
#impeachtrump
God bless Ukraine
I stand with Ukraine and democracy.
DISGRACEFUL.
No one can argue who they work for any longer.
Trump picked the wrong country.
"This will make great TV".
As soon as Trump learnt that Zelenskyy wasn’t going to give him minerals (to the tune of at least 3x the value of US support), he and Putin decided to bully Zelenskyy publicly.
Shame, shame, shame!
This was embarrassing, and shameful.

"Are you running for something?" ... "No, sir, Mr. President. Are you?"

But it will backfire. American's love freedom and Ukraine is fighting for their freedom. Russia is the enemy of every freedom loving country.
Long live Ukraine
Long live Zelenskyy
He kept looking at the camera making clips for his master Putin & his cult.
I'm hoping that the EU has made a deal to support & protect Ukraine w/o 🍊
Trump is NO deal maker!!
*Extortion of Ukraine by US Pres *DJT says Zelensky gambles with WWIII if he refuses to comply with EXTORTION *DJT Threatens WWIII
Let the voices be heard.

US alignment is with who?
-- NATO?
-- Putin?
-- EU?
War is inevitable if Trump and Red Hats stay in power.
Inevitable.

Demand Putin commence withdraw next 72 hours. Else we release the hounds.
Z should go home tonight. NATO/EU should put serious troops and war machines into Ukraine. Call them "peace keepers." Or whatever.
Zelensky is a seasoned and very popular leader who is fighting against the very aggression we promised we would protect Ukraine from.
He’s not an idiot like Vance, Drumpf & Little Marco. And they didn’t get the shakedown they wanted.
They wanted to put on a show for Putin. (And how does a Russian reporter get into a high level meeting like that with them knowing? They don't.)
And Trump still holds a gruge against Zelensky for not announcing a fake investigation into Biden to help his election.

Stop trying to reason with a crazy bully!
How cute…💕💕
Only argument needed.
Succinct and factual…👍👍
TASS was only ejected bc journalist let the public know about.
It wasn't "accidental" by the WH staff.
What happened today was an encounter with a bunch of cowardly, schoolyard bullies, and I am confident people will see that for what it was.
Here's your Mad King Republicans ... look at what you've created.
But…The saddest is yet to come…
Monday, all Republican lawmakers will justify Trump & Vance and blame Zelenski
Monday 3rd March 2025 will be:
-The end of America’s free world
-The day America is a Russia Ally
-The day EU has a new Alliance
-The day NATO died
-The day WWIII ignites
It’s easy to talk sh** when you’re surrounded by security and crazed sycophants…
Go on Ukraine’s soil… by the way…the American felon in chief never spoke in russia like that…wonder why…acted like church mouse 🐭
I guess in the heat of the moment he forgot the lie they were supposed to be pushing .
80 years of US diplomacy down the drain for...nothing is going to piss a lot of people in the GoP,army etc...
IF trump get squashed for that and if he want to be a"real"president he need to pave the way/
It was a publicity stunt!!
Russia can throw men as cannon fodder for a whole lot longer than Ukraine can. Anyone with half a brain knows this.
