Trump is way better at this.

He's willing to debase an entire country!

😏

it was very disrespectful, that’s not how a host treats a guest.

JD’s tactic is well known in the psychological manipulation menu and it was extremely rude.

he wasn't even listening, he had his bullshit ready to go. he said "did you ever say thank you" when zelenskyy literally started talking by saying thank you in that very meeting.

Holy shit I just watched a 7 minute clip. That was a hard watch. What a couple of clowns.

I wild chicken would've been less disrespectful and a better conversation.

The EU policy secretary (I don't remember the exact position) said after that meeting that the free world needs a new leader and she hopes Europe is up for the challenge.

What do you mean "debase"? I see an adult acting as one. Maybe it looks a little weird next to the behavior of vhildr.

Because he is thanking Trump after they treated him like crap. He is doing the adult thing for diplomacy, but had he had no war situation Thanking somebody for being overly douchey to you would be considered debasing yourself

It's said POTUS instead of President Trump, so it's not a valid thanks for Trump.

This just makes me reflect on how many Americans, even Trump voters, are basically screaming from the rooftops that Trump is doing real harm to them, and maybe, just maybe, that message will actually be heard.

Then I remember that he's replaced just about everyone who can get into earshot of him with an echo chamber of what-the-fuckary. Absolute useless humans, who will shield Trump from hearing about any negatives from the decisions he's making.

Everything they're saying to the public is spin. It might be based in fact, somewhere in the background, but it's so far divulged from that truth that it's difficult to even tell what true thing was spun this hard to generate the things they're saying. There's a nontrivial amount of it that's just outright fabrications.

I'm not an American and I couldn't vote in the US election. I'm your neighbor to the North and all I could do was watch, in horror, as the vote went to the orange party.

Rewatched the first half of "Civil War" again (shout out to my boy insomnia -.-) last night.

It's very close to the bone in a lot of places.
