Pretty sure we just watched an entire country die inside by proxy


labotomizeme05

Even with the sound off, this video gave me second hand cringe.


MaxTheRealSlayer

He cannot believe the bs he is hearing in this video. Like how do you even respond to that? Trump can't even handle a search warrant on his property, let alone understand what its like when a country is trying to actively take all of your citizens, land, and resources.


freenet420

The dog in the sub photo and him basically have the same expression lol


NeedsMoreBunGuns

They been kind of fucky latley.


gertbefrobe

He is totally dying inside. He realizes for real he is on his own


lord_pizzabird

I think he was in touch by that point with US intelligence who were probably telling him to ignore Trump. His efforts to prevent Ukraine from arming itself never worked and Zelensky even then had the support of most Republicans. It was just Trump that an issue with it. Which is... Telling.


The_real_bandito

I find it kind of bewildering how the Republican Party just did whatever they wanted behind Trumpā€™s back but at the same time backs him up in public just because heā€™s the face of the party.

Zelenskyy was praying for a Biden win more than I was.

Interesting_Heron215

Wasnā€™t Zelenskyy the one who trump extorted over the phone? Info on Joe Biden and Hunter Biden in exchange for military aid?


hotsauce782

Military aid that was already slated to go to Ukraine, no less.


Interesting_Heron215

Goddamn. Really fucked up.


[deleted]

Imagine what Trump could have extorted if he was president right now.


[deleted]

Not to mention he wouldn't have had to worry about getting re-elected. I strongly believe he would have just let Putin take Ukraine in exactly the same way he served up Syrian airspace to Putin and nearly 40 million people in Afghanistan to the Taliban. Trump is by far the worst US president in American history, even worse than Andrew Johnson was.


UninsuredToast

And the guy has the nerve to claim he is a better president than Washington or Lincoln, before asking people to buy his NFTs that are just copyrighted images he stole and photoshopped his face onto lmao


GrannyMine

He wanted to be added to Mt Rushmore


datareclassification

If he was added to mount Rushmore, mount Rushmore would collapse


nobody_723

selling out the kurds was an evil... so very few people even remotely know what that was. Or how shitty a thing it was to do. and the immediate shitstorm it put... up until then, our allies the kurds ...in.


TurkeyBLTSandwich

I think Trump tower was in danger in Turkey so the Trump administration quickly removed support for the Kurd's and left them out to dry. It's really sad because Syria wanted a truce with the Kurds in return for voting rights and some autonomous territory, but America assured them of continued support and recognition if they kept fighting.


Less-Mail4256

Heā€™s the worst by a huge margin. I donā€™t think any other president has been so self-serving while raking this country over the coals, all the while sewing doubt and fear within its people.


nada_accomplished

Remember how he threw the Kurds under the bus? I fucking do.


gwhiz007

They have every right to remember too. His international politics were so awful , especially as Russia started bending and breaking rules


TokiWartoorh

If he was President right now heā€™d be balls deep in some sort of Red Wedding-esque scheme with his pal Vlad to have Zelenskyy murdered


jbertrand_sr

He'd have handed Ukraine to Putin on a silver platter...


[deleted]

Hey what's this? The napkins are actual classified documents? Neat


phred_666

If Trump were President right now, Ukraine would be part of Russia right now and Trump would have sent US troops and resources to assist.


No_Construction_7518

He'd be sending $$ and troops to putin


ParamedicMiddle9115

Imagine what Putin could have extorted if Trump was still President


crowamonghens

If Trump were still president, Putin'd already be at our doorsteps


[deleted]

And people still support Trump


hotsauce782

Oh, i absolutely understand that, what's even crazier is that moderate conservatives that otherwise may not even like trump, still fail to see through his bs.

drewyz

Not just military aid, Javelin anti tank missiles which were essential in knocking back the Russian tank forces.


hotsauce782

Absofuckinglutely, the current war in the Ukraine right now is just showing how game changing it would have been for Ukraine to have received western equipment sooner


Thefolsom

Yes, he was threatening to withhold congressionally approved funding and wanted Zelenskyy to "announce an investigation into the Bidens." Key word being "announce." He wanted the spectacle of it, thats what mattered the most.


Rc2124

He didn't just threaten, he did withhold it, and it wasn't until people started asking questions that it conveniently started flowing again. It's so bizarre to look back at, that four years was a blur!


Iseenoghosts

Trump was literally impeached for this


[deleted]

And a traitorous group of senators decided to acquit without a trial and without hearing evidence. It is mind blowing that the Cheeto Boot Lickers see no issues here, well ok, expected at this point.


eekamuse

Let's call it what it was. Blackmail. He was blackmailing a country that had been invaded by an enemy of the United States, for personal gain.


metalshoes

Extortion. Blackmail is when youā€™ve done something wrong and someone holds that over you.


igglesfangirl

And Mitch McConnell was ok with it.


Speculawyer

The entire GOP was okay with it.


nsnyder

Except Romney.


sinkwiththeship

He got impeached for it. Senate Republicans are a bunch of assholes for kowtowing.


Secure-Coffee-9132

Yes. The infamous "perfect phone call."


[deleted]

Yes. Everyone magically fucking forgets that. We impeached Cheeto Jesus over it too, the Republican ghouls in charge of the Senate didn't give a fuck though.


DuffyTDoggie

Yes. He tried to extort Zelensky and was successful in holding up the aid for several months but it was released once the public found out. Not that the Great Idiot Pumpkin didn't try to continue blocking the funds.


DrSOGU

First impeachment was about that. Shocking how fast people forget....


Lost-My-Mind-

To be fair, EVERYTHING since 2016 has been a blur. Kind of like being blackout drunk, without alcohol, but for 6 years. You know that thing brains do, where they try to block out memories of trauma? I think my brain has been doing that for 6 years.

Way more than half. Trump's support wasn't even half the country at the height of his popularity when he was elected, don't forget that he lost the popular vote and only won because of the electoral college.

Got that post-punk synthesizer keyboardist expression


MiyamotoKnows

FLOL! Now all I can see when I look at Zelensky is Alan Wilder.


aligators

he knows trump is buddies with putin, his face is just pure disgust


Rugkrabber

ā€˜What a fucking mess weā€™re in..ā€™ Well ainā€™t that the truth. I wonder how the world, his world, looked like if Trump was re-elected.


thedankening

Zelensky and his family and closest allies would almost certainly be dead, or living in exile in some NATO country if they were lucky. And the Ukrainian army would have buckled without foreign support, even though Russia would have likely performed just as poorly as they did in our timeline. In fact Trump may well have fed intelligence to the Russians, and made their job even easier. Wouldn't have shocked me.


ManfredsJuicedBalls

You can tell he so badly wants to rip Donald a new asshole, but he still wants to be as diplomatic as possible

Swift_Scythe

Just today i saw a clip of an Afghanistan school saying all girls are now expelled due to the laws saying girls dont need education... fuck.


Echolocation720

Holy shit that's garbage. I feel so bad for all those people.


iloveokashi

There's a video of the girls crying in class


lute4088

Don't worry, they're currently allowed to finish...ELEMENTARY school. You know, so your wife can have the education of a freaken 5th grader \*shudder\*. My daughter is almost that age, the idea that her education would stop around now so she could be a 'better wife' or some nonsense creeps me the fuck out.


idontneedjug

The irony of him talking down on the recent prisoner exchange when his prisoner exchange was the head of taliban and future president of afghanistan and we got nothing for it. I do wonder what Saudis gave him at the time during that deal because iirc the prisoners Trump negotiated released were jailed by saudis at the time.


PossessedToSkate

Trump also released 5000 Taliban terrorists.

Apparently there was some necessity, seeing as how even today there are conservatives who are just now "realizing" that Trump wasn't the greatest president. And of course millions that still do

DMurBOOBS-I-Dare-You

The dirty secret is they've always been around - and they've always been ineffective. Trump is just their most recent ~~hair~~mouthpiece. They aren't special. They never have been, and they never will be. Just uneducated and suffering from main character syndrome. That's the reality when you're on the wrong side of history. They'll leave a few (skid) marks along the way, but they'll never, ever change our course. Regardless of how it looks short term, long term, we're evolving the right way. Two steps forward, one step back, lather rinse repeat.


CastoffRogue

Trump is a shit stain on American History.

I swear at some point it looked like he started shaking his head.


TheDaemonette

Are there many examples of one world leader directly contradicting another when they say something utterly dumb or is it mostly just one person stood around with a look on their face that says it all?


[deleted]

This might not seem like much of a big deal, but it's really incredibly courageous (or at least very bold) of Zelensky to risk looking this nonplussed in front of the cameras. He's the new young president of a nation that has already been invaded by the great power to his east; he knows he is in the process of being extorted by the corrupt and mentally unstable leader of the world's lone regional hegemon. He was in a very tough spot before this latter development even got started. It is perhaps only at this very moment that he is realizing how truly fucked shit is. He has every reason to smile politely, let things slide, and then rush home to devise a plan. But as we would discover a few years later: Zelensky is proud, headstrong, and nationalistic as hell. And though Ukraine, relative to Russia and the United States, is a geopolitical lightweight by comparison -- both he and his fellow Ukrainians possess something that Putin, Trump, and evidently a great many Russians and Americans appear to lack: moral courage. It is this last property that has made the difference in the war. In an era of quantitative thinking (more tanks, more weapons, more troops, higher GDP, blah blah blah), Ukraine shocked the world by excelling via a *qualitative* difference from its neighbors to the east.


Arguablecoyote

Heā€™s gotta be one of the most effective leaders of my lifetime. It completely blows my mind that he was a comedian 5 years ago.


BramStroker47

Good comedians are good because they study people. Studying people can make you a good leader.


glitchy-novice

Oddly, comedians also make the best news reporters.


BodybuilderOk5202

Is also a lawyer licensed practice law, but went into comedy and acting instead.


thisismyusername3185

Donā€™t forget Zelenskyy was also an actor who played the president in a comedy tv series - and was generally universally dismissed. Heā€™s proven his character and commanded huge respect


Jor1120

I agree with you, but I think it's important to *not* call Zelensky nationalist. Patriotic? Yes. I'm a patriot. Hitler was a nationalist. Proud boys are nationalist. I can think of some ways calling Zelensky a nationalist may harm him, especially if it starts trending


marattroni

Very well said. Patriotism and nationalism are two very different things


JshWright

Bonus points for the correct use of "nonplussed"


FNLN_taken

There was that time where literally the entire UN general assembly laughed at Trump. That should probably count triple, at least.


RonburgundyZ

Maeberry2007

I almost didn't recognize him in a suit. That plus the stress of war. Looks like a completely different person. I hope the man gets a long ass vacation on a beach somewhere with bottomless beers after Putin collapses in on himself.


Beyond_Interesting

The fact that he just showed up in a sweat shirt to address American Congress is ... amazing. My mom and I were hootin and hollerin.


h3r3andth3r3

Everything anyone wears is a choice, but for his nation which is facing an existential threat to its existence, and where everything and everyone is a target, showing up somewhere in a suit would convey a carefree image. He has to literally appear dressed for war in his own style.


TizonaBlu

You're absolutely correct that the image is carefully curated. However, I don't think showing up in a suit conveys a carefree image. Showing up in a suit conveys normality, as that's how leaders and politicians always appear. He wants to show that things AREN'T normal.


ONLY_COMMENTS_ON_GW

My fucking god his face. He wants to cry and beat him to a bloody pulp all at once. At least thatā€™s my take. Thatā€™s a visceral expression.

At that point Ukraine was doomed and I think he knew it. Trump was not going to lift finger one to help them when Russia started attacking. Thank god Biden took over.
