Hi, yes. So restricting press access while siding with an invading country while targeting allies while exploting fears of immigrants/trans people while cutting social and government services to those who need them- this has a name

Holy shit I just watched the meeting between Zelenskyy and Trump/Vance. I have never in my life cringed so hard, they were acting like drunk frat bros in a bar. Zelenskyy has more patience and endurance than anyone I’ve ever seen.
That press conference was painful. Watching Zelenskyy, a man who stayed at his post when the entire Russian army was at the gates of Kyiv, being hectored by a whiny little pissant like JD Vance.
It was definitely planned as a setup, I don't think it worked as intended, and it's been very illuminating seeing who tries to make Zelenskyy out to be at fault here. Let alone the one responsible for it being televised.
I'm really curious, if there's any answer to that question, cause your dad is like really involved in ongoing things and it's important for me personally, cuz I'm from occupied parts of Ukraine, with all due respect 🙏
for context, linked twitter account belongs to some Ukrainian youtube channel that was really into space theme and so they followed Musk heavily, before he became that he is now
What pisses me off is the video proves he was very civilized and was ambushed and the Press on the right are saying Zelensky was the disrespectful one when clearly it was the other way around. It's an embarrassment.
Zelensky deals with Putin's bullying since years
But managing to stay that long next to Trump without punching him in the face looks like superhuman to me
The "you haven't thanked us part" got me cos Trump and Vance demanding gratitude for something they've been against this whole time anyways. Trump's reference to Biden as 'Stupid' was a part of that. Zelenskyy has always thanked Biden and the American people (and other countries that helped).
Watched BBC interview w/Geneva Center & occurred to me that additional benefits of #Trump double-teaming #Zelensky for
#Putin & removing aid for #Ukraine drama, #DISTRACTS from start of #PHASE2 of #GazaWarCeaseFire which #Netanyahu doesn’t want, & the #3BillionInUSMilitaryAid approved for #Israel
The time we had to handle drunk frat bros in a bar that is for people that are not quite like frat bros, we easily sweeped them out, and even then the frat bros showed far more respect to the bar than these two clowns showed respect to the White House since Jan. 20.
Sidebar: I've come to understand that while we should always treat each other respectfully, genuine respect is earned. If one is to be truly respected, one must earn it. The same is true for respect's opposite: contempt. Contempt is earned in the same way as respect: by our actions.
For the entirety of Trump's rant I just wanted Zelenskyy to slap him in the face. Not a punch, the slaps you throw at kids (reminder that you shouldn't hit kids tho). Goes to show that I could never be a stateperson. It requires you to debase yourself to those more powerful, and I couldn't.
Why does Zelensky wear BDU's eveywhere? Because everywhere he goes he is fighting a war for Ukraine. He was prepared going in, he knew the oval office was another battlefield.
I can think of a few names for it, evil, fascist, dictatorship, authoritarian... It is also incredibly isolating in the long run. The american gov't is breaking so many relationships with other countries.
Did you see the look on Donald Dunce’s face the day before w/Starmer during a Q $ A session when a British journalist pointed out that #Canada and the #UK shared the same #monarch? (The look of of confusion on his face was quite telling…)

somehow it makes me feel a bit better every time I watch them:
The stakes for Ukraine and UKRAINANS are far too high to do otherwise.
The man is a HERO!
🤔
... it's like they think Zelenskyy saying something absolves those two of their poor performance and childlike temper tantrum.
😶
The POTUS and VP are pathetic.

Putin would even be embarrassed by the way his message was delivered.
