Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky cut off former President and Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump during a gaggle with reporters on Friday, musing that he hoped Trump had a better relationship with himself than Russian dictator Vladimir Putin.

The awkward moment came after Trump was asked about his expectations for his private meeting with Zelensky.

    I find it mental how some Americans hold trump in such regard and use commie as a slur for anything that would support the average persons basic needs. You’ve been played like a cheap fiddle

      Same ‘Americans’ who wave the flag of a country that fought and killed ‘Americans’ for daring to believe in the concept of freedom.

      Every country has its trash, we just give ours a megaphone.

          You can’t, they’ll kill you.

          Because everything they ever needed to know was in the Bible, the only truth that matters to them, and anyone who tries to tell them different is evil and on the side of the devil.

          I’m not exaggerating much at all, I lived there, they believed that.

          Education is only as valuable as what motivates it. In America, we’re taught to only care about future employment opportunities(and the big game). You will get pushed down if you try to get out of the lane you were assigned. Trump supporters work backwards and have retroactively decided that Trump is smart because he’s rich(who knows how rich really) even thought he talks like a child.

              He’s a fucking parody of being rich. If you wrote Trump from scratch for fiction, it’s be discarded as ridiculous. Hell, I know people who don’t like Captain Planet for unrealistic villains, but here we are.

                Biff tannen from back to the future was based on him.

                He’s completely unbelievable, so completely stupid but he won anyway.
