Trump and Vance were not the first to warn Zelensky that his ungrateful begging would backfire. In June 2022, during a private phone call, then-President Joe Biden reportedly lost his temper with the Ukrainian president. Biden had agreed to another massive $1 billion aid package to Ukraine at the time. Yet, no amount is enough for Zelensky.

Any diplomatic leader would react to a $1 billion aid package with gratitude, especially since the US had already sent him billions in funds and weapons. Not Zelensky whose response was to list off everything else Ukraine needed on top of the new aid package. Reports state that Biden lost his temper and shouted at Zelensky during the private phone call—SHOW SOME GRATITUDE!

Zelensky used the United States and public taxpayer funds as his personal endless piggybank. He made a complete fool of Joe Biden who continued to fulfill his every wish. The difference between the current and last administration is that Trump will not tolerate disrespect. Additionally, Biden was forced to save face with the public to secure Zelensky’s image and America’s unwavering support.

In fact, months after the heated phone call, Biden publicly apologized to Zelensky for not sending MORE. He blamed the GOP, stating that Republican lawmakers were stalling additional aid as a political bargaining chip. America had already spent hundreds of billions on Zelensky’s proxy war, but our weak sell-out of a leader cowered and apologized for not prioritizing a foreign nation over his own. What an embarrassment and slap in the face to the people of America.

Numerous people have told me, “This is what I voted for” after Trump and Vance put Zelensky in his place. “Have you ever said ‘thank you’ once?” Vance questioned. Zelensky telling Trump that America would “feel” the impact of the war eventually was the final straw. He actually threatened the president of the United States by warning that war would soon be on his doorstep. The world needed to see that encounter to understand Zelensky. He could have easily chosen PEACE! He could have chosen to prioritize the lives of his troops rather than his ego and pockets. The deal was there awaiting him, but he chose death and destruction.

Zelensky came for a paycheck and left with a reality check. Sorry, but the new American administration serves the American people who have provided Ukraine with more funding than any other nation. The neocons in Europe can cry all they want about America abandoning Europe, but they fail to acknowledge that our president was offering PEACE and an end to war. But no, the neocons are hell-bent on conquering Russia, so peace was never an option. It will be of interest to see how the European leaders who do not support this endless war will react and if it will cause another fracture in the EU.

Trump has said he’d like to stop focusing on Russia and Ukraine and refocus on securing America’s borders. Let us not forget that millions of undocumented, unvetted foreign nationals are still residing in America, presenting an extreme threat to our own national security.
