Let it all come out. There will be a reckoning. Zelensky is a hero.

Donald Trump is the most embarrassing person in the world! Who agrees? 🖐️

Trump and JD Vance are embarrassing! Very disrespectful towards President Zelenskyy.

Three months ago under Biden the prediction was +3.9% growth. Welcome to the Trump recession.

Trump: You've allowed to be in a very bad position...You're not in a good position. You don't have the cards right now. You're gambling with World War three. Vance: Have you said thank you once? Zelenskyy: A lot of times. Vance: Offer some words of appreciation for the US and [Trump]...

The federal civilian worker payroll totaled $271 billion in 2022.  The annual cost of permanently extending Trump's tax cuts that primarily benefited rich individuals? $400 billion.  Keep this in mind as Trump and DOGE lay off thousands of federal workers.

Trump and Vance yell and trash talk Zelensky while sucking Putin’s dick. That’s where we are at. A century of global leadership vaporized in a month.

President Trump’s simpering fealty to Vladimir Putin and Russia is embarrassing and dangerous. Illinois stands with Ukraine, and so should the White House.

Well, Trump’s ass can’t kiss itself so…

Never forget this day, February 28, 2025, when an American president abused and betrayed a democratic ally in the midst of a barbaric war with Russia. This grotesque stain will never wash away.

Where are the Democrats? ✨ Does anyone know?!

“We’ve almost fully switched sides here” — Mark Kelly

Fuck JD Vance. Punk-ass.

They look like they accidentally wore each others’ suits

Fighting for democracy is not going to be easy. It’s going to be uncomfortable at times. Our money. The money we earn is our power. Particularly how we spend it. We became too comfortable. Everything became so convenient. And corrupt people got wealthy from it. Enough!

We just witnessed an ambush - a media lynching - from the President of the United States toward President Zelensky & a democratic nation. The POTUS just said pull out & side with Russia or we’re out. Ukraine didn’t start this war. Putin is a dictator & a murderer. We must stand with Ukraine.

Countries around the world are standing with Ukraine tonight. I think Trump made it very clear that he doesn’t care about allies. That as a Russian agent. He will stand for Putin.

To be clear: Vance and Trump blew this up on purpose. Yet another gift to Putin. Pathetic.

Trump is too much of a coward to say a bad thing to Putin, yet he dares lecture Zelensky? Russia is on the verge of collapse and Trump/Vance are desperate to save them

Today, in a meeting at the White House, the only person actually defending American interests was Zelenskyy. Let that sink in.

Mark Kelly points out how Trump, in trying to look tough, is doing Putin’s bidding

Massive protests need to erupt across America against Trump after this disgraceful PR stunt against Zelensky.

The way Zelenskyy was treated was absolutely disgusting.

Did MAGA Republicans really believe that if Trump were to cut Medicaid and Social Security, that it would only affect Democrats?

Any psychologist or psychiatrist (or former abused spouse) will tell you that President Zelensky gave a master class today on how to deal with a malignant narcissist. He is an amazing man. We can all learn from him.

Aligning with Russia sure as shit ain’t “America first.” youtu.be/5HJviwBVb-E?...

Exactly

More class in his pinky than Trump has shown his entire life.

Trump's CFPB just dropped its lawsuits against: -Capital One, for cheating depositors out of $2B+ in interest -Rocket Homes, for providing kickbacks to agents and brokers -Vanderbilt Mortgage, for trapping customers in risky loans  It's open season for corporate crooks.

McCarthyism is alive and well, apparently.

This is a bigger scandal than people realize. It really makes it look as though this entire meeting was a setup by Trump that was planned in advance. If you watch the video it is clear that they are deliberately and almost derangedly blindsiding Zelenskyy. Now we know who the audience was. Putin.

Period.

Donald Trump has betrayed America. If you couldn’t see it before, you just saw it today.

Donald Trump to Zelensky: “You’re not being thankful enough… This is going to be great television, I’ll tell you that.” I hate this man with every fiber of my cells with a passion going back to my ancestors.

Hey Brian Glenn (Mr. Marjorie Taylor Greene), what say you?

‘Dummies for Putin’: Dem lawmakers rushed to Zelenskyy’s defense after tRump’s absurd outburst in the Oval Office. tRump claimed Zelenskyy was “gambling with world war three,” while his vice-pos Vance jumped in, effectively sabotaging crucial peace negotiations. www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

Lemme get this straight... JD Vance has a meltdown in the Oval Office because Zelenskyy points out that he's never visited Ukraine once. Donald Trump cancels the press conference. President Zelenskyy doesn't sign the minerals deal. And MAGA thinks this was a win? Clown. Show.

President Zelenskyy is the leader of the free world. Donald Trump and JD Vance are Putin's little playthings.

Trump and Vance needed to create an incident to provide a justification for their pre-planned abandonment of Ukraine now, then separation from NATO in the near future. That’s what that was all about, and that was always the way a second Trump term was going to go.

Zelenskyy: During the war, everybody has problems, even you. But you have a nice ocean and don't feel it now, but you will feel it in the future. Trump: You don't know that. Don't tell us what we're going to feel...You know you're in no position to dictate what we're going to feel.

This presser was a horror show. Ukraine will not have US support going forward, because Trump and Vance are completely lost. Europe will step-up and this war will continue. Trump blew this bigger than any foriegn policy folly in recent history.

Shameful

I will never forget the photo of Zelenskyy’s face after he saw Russia’s war crimes in Bucha in 2022. He seemed to age years in an afternoon. Watching him constantly cross the world asking for aid that should have been thrown at him is one of the deepest shames of our age.

Just so we are clear - the reason why JD Vance has constantly refused to go to Ukraine is because he is a coward. He would NEVER go there and meet with their soldiers or talk with their leaders. Because their courage and integrity would show him for what he is - a sniveling jerk.

Might be the most shameful moment of this Presidency so far. Zelensky vs two of Putin's attack dogs.
