Chapter 1: What are world leaders saying about Donald Trump?
Donald Trump is losing it this morning on Saturday as world leaders are calling him out strongly in Munich. World leaders from President Zelensky to Prime Minister Keir Starmer to the President of the EU Commission Ursula von der Leyen to the Foreign Minister of China and others are
are out there calling out the United States for its weakness, for abandoning the United Nation, for abandoning the world and isolating itself. Let me show you what's going on, folks. You've got Donald Trump making posts like this in this morning. He goes, sometimes in life you waste time. TV host Bill Maher, he asked to have dinner with me through one of his friends, also a friend of mine.
He came into the Oval Office much different than I thought he would be.
Chapter 2: How does Trump react to criticism from international leaders?
He was extremely nervous. He had zero confidence. I mean, he goes on and just look how long this message is that Donald Trump posted about Bill Maher. He's like, I jokingly stated recently in a truth that China will do first is terminate all ice hockey. being played in Canada and permanently eliminate the Stanley Cup.
Well, he, Bill Maher, went on and on about the hockey statement, like what kind of person would say such a foolish thing as this, as though I were being serious when I said it. Fortunately, his television ratings are really bad. And he goes on to say, Bill Maher's television ratings. They're like Kimmel or Fallon or Colbert. Regardless, I'd much rather spend my time making America great again.
Oh, he was just joking, everybody. He was just joking. Do we realize like how demented it is for the president of the United States to make a post that just physically, visually like looks like this, yet alone the underlying content of it?
Then you contrast that to what was going on in Munich this morning or there this afternoon or early evening at the same time that Donald Trump was making those posts. You had President Zelensky of Ukraine basically calling out Trump in the United States for saying, you want us to make concessions here, concessions there, but never Russia. You always want Ukraine to concede.
We're not going to give up our damn territory. And we've made our concessions. Watch Zelensky here play this clip.
The Americans often return to the topic of concessions, and too often those concessions are discussed in the context only of Ukraine, not Russia. Europe is practically not present at the table. It's a big mistake to my mind, and it is weird. I think we Ukrainians, we Ukrainians who are trying to bring Europe fully into the process so that Europe's interests and voice are taken into account.

Chapter 3: What controversial statements did Trump make about Bill Maher?
Then Zelensky calls Putin Hitler and he compares Putin to Hitler, which is an accurate comparison. And Zelensky is not mincing words. He ain't holding back. Show you this clip.
And it seems Putin hopes to repeat Munich and not Munich. 2007, when they only spoke about dividing Europe, but Munich, 1938, when previous Putin began dividing Europe in reality. It would be an illusion to believe that this war can now be reliably ended by dividing Ukraine, just as it was an illusion to believe that sacrificing Czechoslovakia would save Europe from a great war.
More from Zelensky right here about the meetings. that will be taking place between representatives of Russia, the U.S. and Ukraine in Geneva. And Zelensky is like, OK, yeah, we have these trilateral meetings. Sure. But honestly, sometimes it feels like we're just talking about different things. And Clearly, Ukraine is talking about peace and ceasefires and actual concessions.
And Russia brings like a historian with them and talks about why Ukraine needs to capitulate. Russia has never made a single concession. Let's play this clip.
Here we are. The more realistic peace becomes. A lot of time now is spent on negotiations. We truly We truly hope that the trilateral meetings next week will be serious, substantive, helpful for all of us. But honestly, sometimes it feels like the sides are talking about completely different things.
Zelensky, though, points out that the Ukrainian army right now undoubtedly is the strongest army in Europe by far. And the Ukraine army is one of the strongest armies in the world right now. It's combat tested. It showed how you can stand up to remember people said, well, Russia is like the second biggest army in the world or third biggest army in the world.
the second biggest army in Ukraine right now because Ukraine is bigger than, is not bigger, but it's stronger than Russia's army in many ways. Here, play this clip.
American backstop. That is why Europe needs Ukraine. The Ukrainian army is the strongest army in Europe. Thanks to our heroes. And it's simply... And it's simply, I think it's simply not smart to keep this army outside NATO. But at the very least, let that be your responsibility. France, your decision, not Putin's decision.
And I loved when Zelensky talked about, you know, everyone's like, you need to do, not everybody, everyone in the Trump regime, they're like, Zelensky, you need to do elections immediately. And Zelensky's like, I will do a ceasefire in Ukraine and we'll do elections. And how about we do this? Why don't, we'll give Russia a ceasefire if they do elections as well. Watch this line.

Chapter 4: What does Zelensky say about concessions in the Ukraine conflict?
We don't care if America or Elon Musk is attacking our laws and our digital sovereignty. Our digital sovereignty is our sovereignty. Bright lines. Get the hell out is what she's saying. Then we heard from Chinese foreign minister Wang Yi. And here's what he said to Japan. Basically, very serious threats. He leveled that Japan right here. You can hear it for yourself. And track them along.
And every country that values peace should shout this loud and clear at Japan right now. If you go back down that old road, it will be a dead end. If you try gambling again. the loss will be faster and more devastating.
And you have Wang Yi, the foreign minister of China, talking about the importance of the United Nations. And it's fascinating to me to see over here, I'll show you in a moment, you had Marco Rubio disparaging the United Nations in Munich, while you had Wang Yi praising the United Nations. It's very fascinating. Here, play this clip.
Without the UN, the world would revert to the law of the jungle, where the strong prey on the weak, and many medium and small-sized countries would lose the multilateral foundation critical to their survival and development.
Then we heard from Keir Starmer, the Prime Minister of UK. And he talked about how, you know, with the United States basically taking the positions that it's taken, Europe needs to build out hard power, military, military buildups. Once again, we are now in a point in page in human history where hard power is necessary, where militaries and wars are going to have to be regular.
Here, play this clip.
The road ahead is straight ahead. And it is clear, we must build our hard power because that is the currency of the age. We must be able to deter aggression. And yes, if necessary, we must be ready to fight, to do whatever it takes to protect our people, our values, and our way of life.
More from Kier Starmer here calling Europe a sleeping giant. Let's show you this clip.
As I see it, Europe is a sleeping giant. Our economies dwarf Russia's more than 10 times over. We have huge defense capabilities, yet too often, this adds up to less than the sum of its parts. Fragmented industrial planning and procurement have led to gaps in some areas and massive duplication in others. Europe has over 20 types of frigate and 10 types of fighter jet.

Chapter 5: How does Zelensky compare Putin to historical figures?
I mean, you saw the emails between them. Newly released Justice Department files show that in 2019, Steve Bannon messaged Jeffrey Epstein about efforts to undermine Pope Francis. writing that he hoped to take down the pontiff. Bannon, a former Trump advisor, viewed Francis as a barrier to his nationalist populist agenda. And he talked, we're going to take down the EU.
We're going to take down this person, that person. And Bannon was working with Epstein to prop up right wing authoritarian governments and to destroy democracies. Epstein liked it because it was money opportunities for him and more of the Epstein class. Bannon liked the chaos because Bannon liked to be a puppet master to install his right-wing MAGA people for Donald Trump.
That's what was going on in a lot of those emails if you saw some of our prior coverage. Well, there you have it, everybody. Let me know what you think. Hit subscribe.
