Everyone who watched the interaction between Ukraine’s Zelenskyy and President Trump and VP Vance realizes that any immediate peace deal between Ukraine and Russia is all but dead.
So who is to blame? Personally, I blame Biden or rather whoever was calling the shots while J.B. occupied the White House. Whose idea was it to have Zelenskyy go to Scranton, Pennsylvania to campaign for Biden? Most likely it was those who were making the decisions for J.B. at that time. Someone apparently thought that having Zelenskyy in Scranton with Biden would somehow ensure that Biden would win Pennsylvania. (Zelenskyy had no option but to accept the invite as Biden was giving tons of money and weaponry to Ukraine.)
Or perhaps the thinking from those behind Biden went something like this … if Biden lost, Trump would not forget what Zelenskyy did, and thus it would be much more difficult for Trump and Zelenskyy to come to a peace deal. If Trump were to get a peace deal within a month of assuming office it would be quite a feather in his hat, and the Biden backed Dems could allow that to happen.
I realize that some of you are thinking that what I just wrote is nonsensical. However consider this from Richard Grenell, Special Presidential Envoy for Special Missions of United States:
“Richard Grenell
This is very serious.
@RichardGrenell – 2h@amuse
@amuse 9h UKRAINE: Obama’s team including Anthony Blinken, Victoria Nuland, Susan Rice, and Alexander Vindman advised Zelensky to reject Trump’s deal in violation of the Logan Act.”
From a second source …
Before meeting Trump, Zelensky met with anti-Trump Democrats who advised him to reject the terms of the mineral deal the president was offering, according to Sen. Chris Murphy (D-Conn.).
Could it be that those who advised Zelenskyy to go to Scranton also advised him how to act when in the Oval Office?
Hmmm!
