Spot on, Rolph, and all you other commentators. The biggest winner in the debate was rubbing his hands in glee thousands of miles away. On one count alone, though, Trump was right - Ukraine does have no cards to play.

Thank you, Rolph. I couldn't believe my ears when I first heard this exchange (well, ambush really) on the radio. I thought it was a satirical comedy sketch.

But, shockingly, it turned out to be real. The thrust of your poem is confirmed by the gleeful messages of support for Trump from the likes of Putin and Orban.

One thing to ponder. Apart from all the other reasons (e.g. he's now their ally!), this sort of spectacle could never happen in a Trump-Putin meeting, because Putin would speak Russian through an interpreter, and so Trump and Vance could not 'get at him' directly.
Perhaps Zelensky should have stuck to using his own language and thereby frustrated these two sharks. Having worked in international organisations, I know what a disadvantage having to argue in a foreign language can be. None of which, of course, excuses anything.......

Definitely Putin's puppet is Trump hence the vile and vicious vocal display in order to let Putin have a very pleasing ringside seat!

Thank heaven Europe is standing firm and I having seen reports that the Russian people are on the rise against Putin am very much surprised that they done so before now-no doubt many live in fear fro that living demon!

A disgustingly public humiliation of the heroic Ukraine President by a foul mouthed ex buddy of J Epstein he having dodged trial after money fiddling trials etc etc and by playing right into Putins hands could very well have been an crafty way of payback for that murdering war criminal bastard having been involved as before in U.S. elections but this time has possibly been behind getting Trump into the White House

to expect Zelensky to do his bidding or lose arms supplies-really? what about all the thousands of innocents on both sides especially those heroes of which so many died who had been forced to defend their country-how the bloody hell can they just be forgotten?

There was absolutely no need to treat Zelensky like that!
after all he speaks for his country not just for himself

and if the lack of U.S. military supplies comes about and Putin has a nice easier stroll into Europe then what will Trump do then I'd like to know?
