A volatile Oval Office meeting between President Trump, Vice President Vance, and Ukrainian President Zelenskyy has sent shockwaves through Washington and beyond. Trump launched into a 10-minute tirade against Zelenskyy, drawing sharp criticism from Democrats and some Republicans. Democrats labeled Trump's behavior as "shameful," "disgusting," and an "embarrassment," accusing him of playing into Putin's hands. Some Republicans, however, defended Trump's "America First" approach. The meeting exposed deep divisions over US support for Ukraine, with some Republicans suggesting Zelenskyy should "resign" or "change." While some Republicans criticized the public nature of the confrontation, many staunchly defended Trump's actions, portraying Zelenskyy as disrespectful and demanding a greater contribution from other nations. The incident has sparked intense debate about US foreign policy and the future of the relationship between the US and Ukraine.
