Comments by "Philip Rayment" (@PJRayment) on "Breaking: President Trump and VP Vance Spar with Zelensky in the Oval Office, with Red Scare Hosts" video.

I'm a big fan of Trump and Vance, but the snippets shown here do seem to show Trump talking over Zelensky more than anything. Zelensky should accept that Trump would have the ability to make Putin stick to any agreement, but Trump is acting like an Indian giver, and like he's in charge of someone else's war. America gave Ukraine weapons and money, but now wants him to pay for them? Yes, without the help given Zelensky, the war would have been over quickly. But it could also have been over quickly if Ukraine had been given proper help in the first place. What Ukraine was given was just enough to keep the war going, but not enough to bring it to an end quickly. I realise that there would be a lot more at play here than is visible on the surface, so I'll try and keep an open mind, but those are my impressions.

On the other hand, it's been rather obvious that various countries have provided enough money and munitions to keep the war going, but not enough to bring it to an end. Perhaps that was his complaint. As one example, Australia donated armoured vehicles, but buried military helicopters it no longer wanted rather than send them to Ukraine to use.

@Lika786 "Not enough pilots to fly those helicopters." According to who? Zelensky said that he'd like to have them. And of course that was just an example.
