"Wow. A Vice-President who is as dumb as he is aggressive."
@NickFerrariLBC reacts to JD Vance describing Britain as 'some random country that hasn't fought a war in 30 or 40 years.'
There is an aggressor: Russia.
There is a victim: Ukraine.
We were right to help Ukraine and sanction Russia three years ago—and to keep doing so.
By “we,” I mean the Americans, the Europeans, the Canadians, the Japanese, and many others.
Thank you to all who have helped and continue to do so. And respect to those who have been fighting since the beginning—because they are fighting for their dignity, their independence, their children, and the security of Europe.
Hi there. I used to be a reasonable Republican. And I sat and watched Trump and Vance behave like a couple of schoolyard bullies. But the MAGA press machine has told me to join with all the other nodding dog cabinet ministers and tweet out this cut and paste BS. So here it is. #growaspine @marcorubio
Yesterday we saw the facade. Today we've seen the true face of the Trump administration. Zelensky is literally fighting for his life, his people and his country. And Trump and Vance are treating him like dirt. They're not statesman, they're gangsters.
Trump and Vance have declared themselves to be on Russia's side in the Russo-Ukraine war. This is a catastrophic mistake for America's national security. And let's be clear: Trump and Vance now personally own that policy. It is not the view of a majority of Americans of either or no political party.
Generations of American patriots, from our revolution onward, have fought for the principles Zelenskyy is risking his life to defend. But today, Donald Trump and JD Vance attacked Zelenskyy and pressured him to surrender the freedom of his people to the KGB war criminal who invaded Ukraine. History will remember this day— when an American President and Vice President abandoned all we stand for.
Putin and his murderous thugs are watching this and laughing their heads off. Trump and Vance are singing his songs at the top of their voices. “This is going to be great television” says Trump. All he cares about. Was talking to Michael Woolf earlier today. “You have to remember he is a reality TV star,” he said. “All he cares about is attention. And together get ratings you need conflict, conflict, conflict.” As for Vance … vile. Zelensky is a great man being treated to Mafia style bullying, intimidation and extortion. Europe has to stand up as one when Zelensky arrives in London on Sunday.
This is no way to treat the leader of a country being pummelled by Russia. It’s quite upsetting. Trump and Vance gang up on Zelensky. No way for leaders to behave. Trying to intimidate Zelensky. Vance attacks Z then accuses him of disrespect because he answers back.
