"Why did they hammer him? Because they don’t want Americans to view Zelensky as a hero. That view will complicate Trump’s plan to surrender Ukraine to Putin. Trump is ready to give Putin everything he wants. And then carve up the world."

"What 77 million Americans did last November was heinous. Without regard for the warnings repeatedly given by Democrats and the Trump gang’s own words in Project 2025, they stupidly voted for a demented convicted criminal with no regard for human dignity and now, clearly, for human life. We are all suffering for their mindless decisions, and now so is the rest of the world."

"Here's what the idiots in the White House utterly fail to comprehend. They and the US came out of that argument weaker. Zelensky came out stronger, with Europe rallying behind Ukraine more than before. They came out looking like petulant idiots; he came out looking like a leader with integrity."

"There is little more Trump could do to advance Russia’s interests at the expense of the peace and security of the United States than if he was an active agent of the Russian KGB—a theory that reputable sources have begun to publish."

"No, the meeting did not go badly for Ukraine. It exposed in the most undeniable, unequivocal way possible the pro-Putin commitments of the president and vice president. That was information Americans and allies needed to have clear before them."

@wdlindsy ugh, I hate all this agreeing with David Frum (and John Bolton (!)) I'm doing lately.
@wdlindsy This. Taking their masks off in front of the public was really the best possible move for Ukraine in a bad situation. There was no chance of getting favorable negotiated terms, but embarrassing & politically weakening the treasonous pieces of shit blackmailing them puts them in a better position with American public opinion, Congress, and most importantly rest of world.
@wdlindsy
...and it forces all countries aka (former) allies, tradepartners and at the UN "involved" to finally define/realise their own position regarding the current USA.
@wdlindsy and for this T rumple will make him and his country pay.
But none of the news media are mentioning this.
@wdlindsy blue team cheerleader dworkin grifting out of his ass again, I see
Overprivileged ppl that think they can be fascist as long as they are friendly
@wdlindsy “Zelensky’s attire—the Ukrainian president wears military attire, not a suit, to remind the world that his country is at war—has been a fixation on the right, and conservatives have seized upon it as a pretext to blame him for Trump’s anger. Oddly, they did not seem to mind that Elon Musk showed up at the White House this week in a T-shirt and baseball cap.” #FuckTrump #MAGA #hypocrisy #fascist #ukraine #StandWithUkraine #USpol
@wdlindsy Just a reminder. tRUmp can be impeached a 100 times and NOTHING will happen.
REMOVAL from office is what needs to happen.
