If you didn’t see it, I encourage you to watch the full video. What we witnessed between Donald Trump, JD Vance, and President Zelensky inside the Oval Office was an ambush. It was a planned ambush designed to humiliate President Zelensky in order to benefit Vladimir Putin. President Zelensky told me that he expected to have a tough meeting with Trump, but this was an embarrassment and an abomination for America. Trump has become a lapdog for a brutal dictator in Moscow, and America's global power is hemorrhaging as America sides with dictators over democracy. What an embarrassment. It's got to be hard for Americans to understand how the White House has just become an outlet for Kremlin propaganda — why the health of Vladimir Putin matters more than the health of democracies. It was absolutely extraordinary to watch the planned embarrassment of an ally just because it's good for Russia. Nothing about what happened today is good for America.
