  No, it’s you who didn’t get what’s the scandal about. The problem is not (I mean that also is a problem, but that exists regardless of what happened during that meeting) the political context.

  It is that the bar, again, for what is doable was lowered. A literal state president was bullied in front of a nation. It was a provocation and a display of the new tone between potential allies.

  And that’s indeed concerning regardless of the (also concerning) “trade” offer.

    Nazi Germany signed agreements with European and Soviet countries to not invade them and then did it anyways.

      Worse, the Molotov Ribbentrop pact was dividing up Europe between the Soviet Union and Germany. That’s why the Soviet Union invaded Poland together with Germany, and took the eastern half.

  It’s worse: unlike Molotov, Zelensky didn’t even bring the cocktails.

    Too bad he didn’t. It would’ve saved us Canadians a lot of work burning the White House again.

    You mean bread baskets. Molotov brought the bread baskets and received cocktails.

  Who was surprised by it? You can just know the last 10 years of US history to be in no way surprised.

  Also, yeah, not a shower thought

    Trump and Vance have massive balls to be able to stand up to that guy trying to raise money and support for his country that was invaded.

    Trump definitely isn’t butthurt that he was impeached during his last term because Zelenskyy didn’t say bad things about Biden while Trump was threatened to hold back US’s aid to Ukraine then.

    They sounded like petulant spoiled children, talking over Zelensky constantly. There is nothing statesmanlike about either of them. They’re like a couple of mouthy second hand car salesmen who think they are the bee’s knees. They don’t care for peace, only in lining their pockets. It was embarrassing.

    “Glad someone other than Putin had the ball’s to stand up to (him)…”

    It’s not like Donny & JD were the first to stand up to that monstrous megalomaniac.
