US donald trump Volodymyr Zelenskyy
Donald Trump said he had a ‘very good relationship with President Putin’ and Volodymyr Zelenskyy surely spoke for everyone
Donald Trump met with Volodymyr Zelenskyy at Trump Tower on Friday, following the Ukraine president’s meeting with Kamala Harris earlier in the week, and there was no end of eye-opening, not to say jaw-dropping exchanges.
But this one was surely the most shocking (but nonetheless predictable of them all) when Trump said he had a ‘very good relationship with President Putin’ while standing next to Zelenskyy.
And Zelenskyy’s response surely spoke for everyone. Well, nearly everyone.
Trump: I have a very good relationship with President Putin
Zelenskyy: I hope we have more good relations with us
Trump: Oh, ha ha I see pic.twitter.com/5vgHy0xT0t

Absolutely incredible scenes. And that wasn’t all (stick with it for the 3 minutes or so, you won’t believe it).
Oh look! Donald Trump is embarrassing us in front of the world again. Remember this was every day during his Presidency? pic.twitter.com/3QFgSRwHME

And here are just a few things people said about it.
1.
Zelensky boldly interrupted Donald Trump as he was spreading Russian propaganda. Quite a moment!

Trump’s cards have been on the table for a while now — he’s on Putin’s side. Against that backdrop I’m not sure why Zelenskyy would even bother with this humiliating spectacle. https://t.co/fnMgr421bv

As a Ukrainian American, I am appalled by Donald Trump, his rhetoric, and his actions. He cannot be allowed to lead our nation again. https://t.co/NgPo42o9sn
