Of course I have to right about the dust up between Donald Trump and Ukraine's President Volodymyr Zelenskyy on Friday at the White House.
In the aftermath of the awkward and antagonist encounter, everyone had to same assessment of the event.
An embarrassment.
But...
It seems there was a dispute as to which party the word "embarrassment" applied.
For all of us out here with eyes that see, ears that hear and brains that still (mostly) function, it was an embarrassment for our country.
A visiting leader of a soveriegn nation was being bullied and badgered by Donald Trump and JD Vance. Trump is siding with the aggressor against that nation. Trump and Vance were petty and petulant, rude and disrespectful.
Look how weak and incompentent Donald Trump is!
What an embarrassment for America!
For everyone else, the Republican faithful, the MAGA cultist and brains that have given up on functioning, it was an embarrassment for Zelenskyy.
How DARE he show up for a meeting at the White House NOT wearing a suit, how DARE he not say thank you to Donald Trump, how DARE he question der fuhrer's view of Trump's dear friend Vladmir Putin, how DARE he be so rude and show such disrespect. HOW DARE HE!!!!
Look how strong and powerful Donald Trump is!
What an embarrassment for Ukraine!
Really?
There are none so blind who will not see.
That's the United States for you: we are "blessed" with an embarrassment of idiots.
BONUS: for SNL's take on the Friday meeting....
