What happened during Trump's meeting with Zelenskyy?

Donald Trump 0:00
Because you're in no position to dictate that. Remember this. You're in no position to dictate what we're going to feel. We're going to feel very good. We're going to feel very good and very strong. You're right now not in a very good position. You've allowed yourself to be in a very bad position, and he happens to be right about it.
Volodymyr Zelenskyy 0:21
You're not in a good position. You don't have the cards right now.

A shameful moment in American history, a day that will live in infamy, where Donald Trump and J.D. Vance laundered Russian propaganda directly into the Oval Office. where Ukrainian President Zelensky was a guest. And Donald Trump and J.D. Vance started yelling at Zelensky with Putin's talking points. President Zelensky stood up for himself, for his country, for democracies around the world, and powerfully pushed back at Donald Trump and J.D. Vance. Let me show you more of what unfolded in the Oval Office. Here is another angle where J.D. Vance starts spreading Putin propaganda and then President Zelensky pushes back. Then Donald Trump starts yelling at Zelensky. Watch from this angle. Let's play it.
J.D. Vance (quoted) 1:12
You went to Pennsylvania and campaigned for the opposition in October. Offer some words of appreciation for the United States of America and the president who's trying to save your country.
Volodymyr Zelenskyy 1:25
Please, do you think that if you will speak very loudly about the war... He's not speaking loudly.
Donald Trump 1:31
He's not speaking loudly. Your country is in big trouble. Can I answer? No, no. You've done a lot of talking. Your country is in big trouble. I know. You're not winning. You're not winning this. You have a damn good chance of coming out okay because of us.
Volodymyr Zelenskyy 1:45
Mr. President, we are staying in our country, staying strong. from the very beginning of the war. We've been alone. And we are thankful. I said thanks in this cabinet.
Donald Trump 1:54
You haven't been alone. We gave you, you stupid president, $350 billion. We gave you military equipment. And you men are brave, but they have to use our military equipment. If you didn't have our military equipment, if you didn't have our military equipment, this war would have been over. In two weeks. In three days.
Volodymyr Zelenskyy 2:14
I heard it from Putin. In three days. This is something. Maybe less. In two weeks. Of course, yes.
Donald Trump 2:20
It's going to be a very hard thing to do business like this.
Volodymyr Zelenskyy 2:22
Again, can you just say thank you? I said a lot of times to American people.
J.D. Vance (quoted) 2:28
Except that there are disagreements. And let's go litigate those disagreements rather than trying to fight it out in the American media when you're wrong.
Donald Trump 2:36
But you see, I think it's good for the American people to see what's going on. I think it's very important. That's why I kept this story so long. You have to be thankful. You don't have the cards. You're buried there. Your people are dying. You're running low in soldiers. Listen, you're running low in soldiers. It would be a damn good thing. Then you tell us, I don't want to cease fire. I don't want to cease fire. I want to go. And I want this. Look, If you can get a ceasefire right now, I tell you, you take it so the bullets stop flying and your men stop getting killed. Of course we want to stop the war. But you're saying you don't want a ceasefire. But I said to you, we guarantee it.
Volodymyr Zelenskyy 3:14
I want a ceasefire because you'll get a ceasefire faster than a degree. Ask our people about a ceasefire, what they think. That wasn't with me.
Donald Trump 3:22
That wasn't with me. That was with a guy named Biden who was not a smart person. That was with Obama. That was with Obama who gave you sheets and I gave you javelins. I gave you the javelins to take out all those things. Obama gave you sheets. In fact, the statement is Obama gave sheets and Trump gave javelins. You got to be more thankful because let me tell you, you don't have the cards. With us, you have the cards. But without us, you don't have any guards.
Ben Meiselas 3:55
Here's another clip from that first interaction that I showed at the start of the video. Let's play it.
J.D. Vance (quoted) 4:01
I'm talking about the kind of diplomacy that's going to end the destruction of your country. Yes, but if you are not strong... Mr. President, with respect, I think it's disrespectful for you to come into the Oval Office and try to litigate this in front of the American media. Right now, you guys are going around and forcing conscripts to the front lines because you have manpower problems.
