The scuffle began following Zelensky's answer to US Vice President JD Vance comments that Ukraine must agree to U.S. peace terms.

When Zelensky began to respond, Trump said, "You are not allowed to talk."

Holy shit the sociopathic arrogance of Trump and Vance is horrifying, but this was the cherry on top.

"It's going to make great television," Trump said after the argument. The press briefing ended shortly.

"It's going to make great television,"

I can't say I'm shocked that these are his personal standards for running the most powerful country in the world in an international setting.

He also called it "doing business"

He's not a leader of a country clearly. He's a money-grubber.
