For those of us triggered by that kind of behavior, it brought forth a variety of emotions. In my family this was described as the "45-minute lecture, cuz I didn't think you got it the 1st time", complete with gaslighting "if you'd only", debasing comments, bullying, negative self-worth, and of course the granddaddy of them all "I could/would have". In 77-years I've never been SO ashamed of my/our country. 😔🤬 I immediately got on the phone to my 2 (R)senators and (D) congressman.
Notwithstanding the tirad and extremism of our country's two leaders at the meeting, which was embarrassing and disrespectful at best was the body language of the two county's presidents. One man visibly annoyed yet calm and reserved. The other red-faced, boisterous, making repetitious statements - several derogatory and irrelelvant to the issue at hand. Ukraine's president is a soldier, proud of his troops and of his citizens people; he said so. I wish that our president was proud of the United States of America and of all of its diverse people. I wish that he would want to make the US even better and show us as a beacon of strong and welcoming democracy for the world to respect - not for personal profit, as a bargaining chip or by bullying. We are not perfect, but have been an awesome nation trying to be a more perfect union. Hope springs eternal. May diplomacy and peace reign supreme.
Nope, could not stomach but a bit. And i will not watch MSM so i don't add to their sick ratings. Thank you for reminding us of the Budapest Memorandum! Where else is this being mentioned???
I wish this was a storytease but it really happened.
“They give you a little morsel of food and you think you’ve won something. Meanwhile, they’re loading up the entire restaurant and taking it out the back door. That’s what happened when the HBCU funding was reinstated. Don’t forget that 47 is a huckster and conman.”
I don't know about the rest of us, but I'm not surprised. It reminds me of when adults are raising kids and orders and/or duties without "CONSEQUENCES". And the morrow of the story is: Never make an Agreement, Promises, or Policy without consequences.
Then VP Kamala Harris called it during her debate with 45/47…She literally said he would serve up the Ukraine to Putin to stop the war…
And, Cedita, it’s just such a shame that about 1/3 of our “fellow citizens“ are perfectly happy for Felon 47 to do so…

What an absolute embarrassment!! We truly have a mobster and felon in the WH. It was sickening.
Ol’ Hobbs, as usual, you hit the nail right on the head. And, as you know, I would know something about that kind of thing! 😆😆😆
