KTLA Washington DC correspondent Trevor Shirley just said Gulf of America. And then Frank Buckley says he looks like JD Vance. I don’t know whether to applaud Frank on that burn or to start being concerned with KTLA…

Part of the lesson here is that Trumpists, like many bullies, don’t handle it well if you stand up to them rather than caving. If Trump or Vance or their supporters had any character this petulant display and Zelenskyy’s defiance would be humiliating to them.

FWIW my take on the Zelenskyy ambush. Zelenskyy has greater standing in the world right now than Trump, and Trump needs to reverse that, at least in the US. It may have worked -- who knows? A lot depends on the next two hours of coverage.
