I want to say that you are the ally I've been hoping for my entire life. Not one American has died defending Ukraine. You've taken our weapons and you've been very effective, and I'm grateful to have you as our ally. However, I don't know if we can ever do business with Zelensky again. The way he handled the meeting and confronted the president was over the top. The relationship between Ukraine and America is vitally important, but I'm uncertain if Zelensky can make a deal with the United States after his recent behavior.

Don't tell us how to feel while we're trying to solve a problem. You're in no position to dictate our feelings, and you're being disrespectful to this country. We gave you $350 billion and military equipment. Your men are brave, but they needed our equipment. Without it, the war would've been over quickly. I was with Obama, who gave you sheets, and I gave you javelins to take out tanks. Remember, Obama gave sheets, and Trump gave javelins. You need to be more thankful. With us, you have leverage, but without us, you have nothing. Act like a man. The president has asked Zelensky to leave the White House because he felt disrespected. Officials felt that Zelensky's body language, like shrugging and eye-rolling, was ungrateful and disrespectful. What did I ever do to deserve such disrespect?

America's strength lies in diplomacy, which we are pursuing with the current president. Russia occupied parts of Ukraine back in 2014, and despite numerous conversations and ceasefire agreements, they continued attacks. My administration is trying to prevent the destruction of your country. Everyone faces challenges during war, but you need to appreciate the support you're receiving. We've provided substantial financial and military aid. If you had to fight this war on your own, it would have been over in two weeks. Be thankful. It's important for the American people to see what's happening. Without our support, you don't have a chance. We gave you javelins, not just sheets. I have empowered you, but without us, you're vulnerable. Make a deal, or we're out. You're not acting thankful at all.

I love Europe, but Europeans don't respect Americans, and a relationship without mutual respect can't last. We're not obligated to protect Ukraine, especially when we have our own problems at home, like fentanyl deaths and veterans needing help. We've been bailing out Europe for 80 years, and it's time for them to handle their own security. Americans across the political spectrum don't want to be in a nuclear war with Russia or continue the Ukraine war. The entitlement we're seeing from European leaders and Zelensky suggests the relationship is over. We'll still trade and visit, but the dynamic needs to change. Americans are tired of paying for Europe's security while receiving disrespect in return. It's time for the relationship to evolve.

I think the situation with Ukraine is a complete disaster. I've been there multiple times since the war started and understand the consequences of Putin's actions. I was hoping the minerals deal, which could transform our relationship, would be successful. But after what I saw in the Oval Office, I don't know if we can do business with Zelensky again. His handling of the meeting was disrespectful and over the top. It will be very difficult to sell to the American people that he's a good investment. He either needs to resign and send someone we can work with, or he needs to change his approach.

I'm angry at Americans for protecting Zelensky. He's an unlawful president whose idol is Putin. Zelensky always lived in Moscow and dreamed of joining high society. He's a comedian, and Ukrainians support him because of a movie where he played a president – it's just marketing. When Zelensky was a comedian, the greatest honor for him was when Putin watched him. I know this because I'm a singer who performed at the same comedy show in Russia. Zelensky has nothing to do with benefiting Ukraine or Ukrainians. He even participated in an LGBTQ music band. Zelensky always wanted to be at the top, no matter the cost. He's the kind of person who would do anything to get what he wants. All the money donated to Ukraine goes into his and his friends' pockets. My friends in Ukraine have received nothing during this time. None of them have gotten even a piece of bread from the billions Americans have sent.

So, I saw Trump meet with Zelensky, and it was wild. Trump really laid down the law, a total master class in the art of the deal. He made it clear the U.S. isn't just a piggy bank. We want something in return for our investment. Zelensky seems used to just getting what he wants without even saying thank you, walking in, demanding money without any gratitude. Trump's message was clear: this is how it's going to be. The press conference was canceled. It was a serious power move. Some feel bad for Zelensky but it shows the world that the United States is done being a charity organization.

Poland viewed the U.S. as a force for good, but now friends in Poland worry about alignment with Putin. I'm not aligned with anyone, only with the U.S. and the world's good. You can't make deals by saying terrible things. I want to get this over with, despite the hatred involved. I could be tougher, but deals require diplomacy. We had a president who talked tough, then Russia invaded Ukraine. Diplomacy is the path to peace. I'm trying to end the destruction of your country, but it's disrespectful to attack the administration trying to prevent it. You've allowed yourself to be in a bad position. You don't have the cards right now, but with us, you do. You're gambling with World War III and are being disrespectful. Have you said thank you once? You're not winning this. We gave you billions. If you didn't have our military equipment, this war would have been over quickly.

Zelenskyy said many remarkable and disturbing things, like when he repeatedly rejected President Trump's statement that we should pursue a ceasefire. How could you reject a ceasefire? He also kept saying Europe is doing so much more than us, which begs the question: what do you need us for? If Europe is so great, why are you begging us for money, protection, and guarantees? President Trump is a peacemaker, having brought peace for four years during his previous term. Today, we saw what it's like to have a strong leader in the White House, and the whole world witnessed the strength of American leadership.

I'm very proud of President Trump and was also very proud of JD Vance for standing up for our country. We want to be helpful, but what I witnessed in the Oval Office was disrespectful. I'm unsure if we can ever conduct business with Zelensky again after that.

We're being pimped by Zelensky and the US government. Our hard-earned money is being sent to Ukraine, and when Zelensky gets it, he says it's not enough. We can't even afford basic necessities here, yet we're sending billions to Ukraine. Zelensky is having steak dinners with celebrities while our veterans sleep on the streets and children go hungry. It's infuriating and makes no sense. If people want Ukraine to have money, they should send their own. We need to take care of our own problems first.

I was honored to witness President Trump stand up for American interests, defending us from being fleeced and taken for granted. Zelensky's impertinence and disrespect towards the U.S. were shocking. He should be thanking us. The only reason Zelensky has power is because of the United States. Americans have suffered economically funding this war, depleting our resources and negatively affecting our ability to project power elsewhere. Instead of gratitude, Zelensky lectured us, demanding more and pushing for a never-ending war with Russia. No American wants their children dying for Zelensky. President Trump rightly insisted on being a partner for peace, asserting American interests and defending the American people from a potential World War III. He showed the world what strong American leadership looks like.

I think the situation with Ukraine is a complete disaster. I've been there multiple times since the war started and understand the consequences of Putin's actions. I was hoping the minerals deal would go well; it would be transformative. I spoke with Zelensky this morning. I was proud of President Trump and JD Vance standing up for our country. However, what I saw in the Oval Office was disrespectful, and I'm unsure if we can do business with Zelensky again. Most Americans wouldn't want to partner with him after that. His confrontational approach was excessive. The relationship between Ukraine and America is vital, but after what I witnessed, I question if Zelensky can make a deal with the U.S. He was terrible in Munich and has made it difficult to convince Americans he's a good investment. He either needs to resign or change his approach.

I've been to Ukraine many times since the war started and admire their fight. I hoped this minerals deal would be transformative, having even spoken with Zelensky this morning. President Trump was in a good mood last night, and I've never been more proud of him. However, what I witnessed in the Oval Office was disrespectful, and I'm unsure if we can continue doing business with Zelensky. His handling of the meeting and confrontation with the president was excessive. While the relationship between Ukraine and America remains vital, I question Zelensky's ability to strike a deal with the U.S. after this. He was terrible in Munich, making it difficult to convince Americans he's a worthwhile investment. He either needs to resign and send someone we can work with, or he needs to change his approach.

I think the situation with Ukraine is a complete disaster. I've been there many times since the war started and understand the consequences of Putin's actions. I appreciate the Ukrainian people's fight, and I was hoping the minerals deal would go well. However, what I saw in the Oval Office was disrespectful, and I'm unsure if we can do business with Zelensky again. His handling of the meeting was over the top. The relationship between Ukraine and America is vitally important, but can Zelensky make a deal after this? He was terrible in Munich, making it hard to sell him as a good investment to Americans. He either needs to resign and send someone we can work with, or he needs to change his approach.

I've never seen an exchange like that between Zelensky and President Trump. I can't stand Putin, but Zelensky is indicative of a pervasive problem with nations thinking the US is a never-ending source of support while complaining about it. Without the US, Ukraine would be Russia. These modern comforts are supported by the US military. This mindset emboldens people like Putin because they know the well runs dry. There's no winning without the United States, so it's not a good idea to walk into the Oval Office and be difficult. Everything with Zelensky is a photo op, and it doesn't seem genuine. He says they've been alone since day one, which isn't true. They've received hundreds of billions of dollars, largely from the United States. A simple "please" and "thank you" would be nice to hear.

Trump and Vance are cowards. We should be thanking Ukraine for fighting back against the Russian invasion, especially since Trump was too scared to even criticize Putin. He even called Putin's actions "brilliant" three years ago. The invasion was supposed to be quick, but it's been three years. The Russian economy is collapsing, and they've lost their offensive capabilities, while Ukraine continues to defend itself. Nobody should dare to lecture Zelenskyy.

I watched Zelensky's press conference and believe his pain is derailing peace. While I understand his emotions after three years of suffering under Putin, he needs to prioritize peace over pain. This press conference was an opportunity to show he's willing to make peace and use aid to end the war. Instead, he spent the time calling Putin names, which isn't productive. Even if Zelensky is morally right, Putin is the stronger force, and morality alone won't end the war. Trump, despite losing his cool at the end, maintained composure and diffused Zelensky's negativity with humor. Unlike Biden, Trump is talking to Putin. I'm tired of politicians who prioritize sounding good over doing good. Zelensky has spent too much time garnering sympathy without stopping the killing. We must choose between feeling right and being effective, and Zelensky needs to choose between arguing and making peace.

This is a sad day and an embarrassment for the U.S. on the world stage. This was a setup orchestrated by Donald Trump and J.D. Vance to appease Vladimir Putin and humiliate Zelensky. Trump even admitted it was "great television." Zelensky was compelled to come to Washington seeking support, but Vice President Vance ambushed him, with Trump's blessing. In my experience, such actions don't occur without the president's approval. This was a deliberate attempt to undermine the U.S.-Ukraine relationship and hand U.S. interests to Putin. Zelensky, despite the pressure, maintained his dignity and defended the truth, refusing to play along with their script. His attempt to clarify the situation wasn't about a lack of gratitude, as he has repeatedly thanked the U.S. for its support.

I've been in countless bilateral meetings with heads of state, but I've never witnessed behavior like President Zelensky's. He berated and interrupted his host instead of showing gratitude for the U.S.'s significant aid, which has essentially kept him alive and in power. This was very disappointing to see. I sincerely hope President Zelensky reconsiders his approach, reaches out to President Trump, expresses the gratitude he owes, apologizes for his recent behavior, and agrees to this mutual rights deal. It's the best path to peace in the region and serves the interests of both our countries.

I called Zelenskyy a welfare queen because he's constantly asking for money with arrogance, despite billions already unaccounted for. We're working to protect his borders while ours are ignored. His wife shops in Paris, and Ukrainian oligarchs buy yachts. I've had no respect for him since day one. Trump's approach was refreshing, considering how much Zelenskyy has taken from America without respect. He wears military fatigues, acting downtrodden, but he's been on magazine covers and wanted to attend the Oscars. I believe all politicians lie, so I analyzed speeches and transcripts. Putin stated NATO's eastward expansion violated prior assurances when the Berlin Wall fell. We're the aggressors, not him, pushing NATO expansion. Zelenskyy has suspended elections, locked down churches and nuns. I don't like him at all.

He broke agreements and killed our people, refusing prisoner exchanges. What diplomacy is that? We're trying to prevent your country's destruction. Have you even been to Ukraine to understand our problems? During war, everyone faces issues. Don't dictate what we'll feel. We'll be strong. You're gambling with lives and risking World War III, showing disrespect to the country that has supported you. Have you even said thank you? You campaigned against us. Do you think speaking loudly changes things? You're not winning. We've given you billions in aid and military equipment. Without our help, the war would have ended quickly. Just say thank you, accept disagreements, and discuss them instead of fighting in the media when you're wrong. It's important for Americans to see this. You're running low on soldiers, and you should want a ceasefire to stop the bloodshed.

President Trump is upset with President Zelensky, and in some cases, rightfully so. Joe Biden also had frustrations with Zelensky because he wouldn't express gratitude for the help he received. I was personally upset when Zelensky rejected a joint venture for mineral rights after initially agreeing to it. We saw it as a security guarantee, giving us a vested interest in Ukraine's safety while getting paid back for the taxpayers' money we invested. While Ukraine is on another continent, it impacts our allies and the world. There should be some gratitude, but instead, Zelensky accuses the President of disinformation, which is counterproductive. President Trump is transparent and won't tolerate being "gamed." He's willing to work on peace and hopes Zelensky will be a partner, not someone putting out counter-messaging.

I think the situation with Ukraine is a complete disaster. I've been there many times since the war began, and I understand the consequences of Putin's actions. I was hoping the minerals deal, which could transform the relationship, would be successful. I even spoke with Zelensky this morning. However, what I saw in the Oval Office was disrespectful. I don't know if we can do business with Zelensky again. His handling of the meeting was over the top. The relationship between Ukraine and America is vitally important, but after what I witnessed, I question whether Zelensky can make a deal with the United States. He was terrible in Munich and has made it almost impossible to convince the American people that he's a good investment. Zelensky either needs to resign or change his approach.
