Trump calls Zelensky a "dictator" in latest smear
S E E D E D C O N T E N T
President Trump escalated his attacks against Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky on Wednesday by calling him "a dictator without elections."
Why it matters: The smear marks a new low in the deteriorating U.S.-Ukraine relationship. It comes as the Trump administration is negotiating a deal with the Kremlin to end Russia's war in Ukraine without Kyiv's participation in the talks.
Driving the news: "A Dictator without Elections, Zelenskyy better move fast or he is not going to have a Country left," Trump wrote in a Truth Social post. "I love Ukraine, but Zelenskyy has done a terrible job, his Country is shattered."
- Trump referred to Zelensky as a "a modestly successful comedian" and claimed he "talked the U.S." into spending billions of dollar in order to "go into a War that couldn't be won."
- Trump also said that the U.S. is "successfully negotiating an end to the War with Russia."
- He also reiterated his claim that Zelensky refuses to hold elections.
Reality check: Zelensky was democratically elected in a fair and free election. Under its constitution, Ukraine can postpone a scheduled election in wartime, and it did so last year because of the Russian invasion.
- Trump has never called Russian President Vladimir Putin a dictator.

Trump is puppeting Russian demands for a Ukrainian election because Russia wants to meddle in such an election and get a Putin stooge into the office in Ukraine.
So publicly blaming Ukraine for the war and now name-calling Zelensky.
Gee, knowing how Trump operates, what could possibly be the solution resulting from his talks with Putin? No doubt it will be a fair, sensible resolution that does not throw Ukraine under the bus.
I expected Trump to throw Ukraine under the bus and cave to Putin. But I admit that I thought he would not be so fucking obvious about it.
No one is allowed to question the king.

That depends. I read the other day that people were doing a lip read of Musk’s kid the day he was picking his nose in the Oval Office, and claimed the kid said to Trump something like “you’re not the President” and “I want you to shush your mouth.” If your name is Musk then Trump is your bitch.
A child shall lead the way
Trump referred to himself as King today on a post he made on truth social about the New York congestion fees.
Again, he wants liberals pulling their hair out over every meaningless yet despicable thing that comes out of his mouth. He is the furthest thing from a king. He’s a whiny little bitch and let’s not stop saying that out loud.
I'd rip his hair out of his head before I'd pull mine
Kathy Hochul responded to the effect of New York hasn't had a king in 250 years and we're not going to start now.
It’s only been a couple months and the uninformed voters who thought they were doing the right thing are already realizing the gravity of their mistake. In another couple months this will grow exponentially, imo. He’s in an untenable position of power whereby the people who put him there are losing everything. The opposition is going to get exponentially demonstrative. The Supreme Court will literally have targets on their backs if they allow this carnage to continue.
And like clockwork....
They do.
I’m glad we can agree that so many distractions are being spewed by this administration. Maybe you should ask yourself what they are trying to distract from? This is a heist in real time, and you will be burned just like everyone else … provided you are not a bot.
I wonder how the constant TDS sufferers would refer to trump if he suspended elections and declared marshal law?
You left out arrested his political opponents, banned opposition parties, and rolled all media into two state run organizations (if you weren't invited tough shit. There is only one view that can be legally expressed).
Rolling Fascist and Nazi groups into the military and government was just an added perk.[✘]
