I'm not sure about that. One thing you should do is put aside your disdain for Trump a couple of minutes and allow the idea he has a backup plan in his mind. He is a successful businessman and you don't go into negotiations without a backup of some sort.
My guess is there's something in the works on an international scale that Russia has already agreed to in spirit. Today was trying to get Ukraine on board for it, though I will give you it was the worst forum possible.
But no matter what, Zelensky showed his true colors today and I'm not sure he's going to have many people in Congress waving Ukrainian flags on his behest now. Except Never Trump Democrats of course.
yea..thats it..Trump sabotaged his own mineral deal.
The purpose of Z visiting the WH was to sign the deal. Did Z refuse to sign it? If so, it was Z that did the dog and pony show.I don't think he sabotaged his own mineral deal. I think he really, really wanted Z to sign it. I think before that "press conference" they discussed and it was apparent he wasn't signing it as it was currently written up, at least not now. So the press conference became damage control for Trump to pass the blame on the deal not getting done to get ahead of the news cycle.
Remember a couple of weeks ago Zelensky said they can't account for a lot of the money we sent them. How much of it went in to his Zelensky's personal bank account (in Switzerland maybe?)Probably.
It's my opinion Trump has never really liked Z anyway and never trusted Z with all that money and Trump did not care about what happened today. Trump wants someone else to be President of Ukraine that he can work with and Z maybe impeached by tomorrow.
Bull..Who said it was a guarantee he was going to sign? He came to discuss it. Z didn't set up that press conference. Be real.
