The American side deliberately orchestrated the confrontation during President Volodymyr Zelensky’s visit to the White House, Friedrich Merz, the head of Germany’s Christian Democratic Union (CDU) and the likely chancellor, said on March 3.
“It was not a spontaneous reaction to interventions by Zelensky, but obviously a manufactured escalation in this meeting in the Oval Office,” Merz said at a press conference in Hamburg.
The visit was expected to mark the signing of a long-debated agreement between Ukraine and the U.S. on jointly developing Ukraine’s mineral resources.
It was blatantly obvious that it was planned, and good to see people calling it out.
It was my very first thought too. Well, second after what a complete twat JD Vance was. But it just seemed so oddly paced. Like I’ve never seen a conversation go like that it was so strange. It felt really contrived. Course it could be chalked up to insane immaturity too so idk.
I mean Trump’s answer to what if Russia breaks the ceasefire was
So essentially his answer to what happens if they break the ceasefire was… they won’t break it? But no, zelensky is the world’s biggest asshole for wanting to know about securities.
Vance going on about how the goal is a ceasefire to end the war, Zelensky relying that ceasefires haven’t been followed by Russia, and the Trump.and Vance going off on ‘disrepect’ was just wild. Like reality tv scripted argument level wild. Saturday Night Live parodied the meeting and the parody was toned down compared to the actual meeting!
It felt like Jerry Springer.
After already being the worlds biggest asshole for not wearing a suit, he may as well ask for securities. For the millionth time. Although that’s only 2% of the deal and he doesn’t have the cards. But he has raw earth. I think I’ve said enough, except thank you.

Watching zelensky die inside while contributing to this shitshow was hard. I can’t imagine how bad that poor guy must have felt. And I’m sure he’s already seen a lot of bad things.
It was like an episode of Veep except more obnoxious.
The pain in his expression was the most relatable thing I’ve seen from a world leader possibly ever.
JD did a pretty poor job with his acting debut.
