Miranda Devine: Zelensky was the true instigator of the Oval Office fracas — not an ‘ambush’ from Trump
Anybody who watched the entire Oval Office meeting between President Trump and Ukraine President Volodymyr Zelensky would know that it was not an “ambush” or a “setup” by Trump, as characterized by Democrats and malign media entities.
It was the opposite. If anyone came to that meeting in bad faith, it was clearly Zelensky, whose body language and attitude was negative from the start. Trump could not have been more cordial, having steered the complex negotiations with Russia and Ukraine to a first step where he believed peace was a real possibility.
Miranda Devine: Zelensky was the true instigator of the Oval Office fracas — not an 'ambush' from Trump
Now Trump’s creative “Art of the Deal” effort to end the war lies in tatters, just as his enemies here and abroad wanted. They could not tolerate that Trump, who thumbed his nose at all their sacred cows, would be successful in ending the war. If Trump succeeded, it would expose warmongers on both sides of Congress and in Europe as incompetent or far worse.
So Trump’s enemies are using the million dead souls of the Ukraine war to spawn a new Russia, Russia, Russia hoax, their fourth by my count.

As a formal Naval officer I am embarrassed that the Democrat party has literally returned to the 5th grade playground to not offer cogent arguments but to instead call Trump names. Regrettably, this group includes former marine officer Seth Moulton (https://www.youtube.com/shorts/OnqmHlBWheU) and Senator Mark Kelly (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TpEOkOHW2Yg) who characterized the meeting as a US diplomatic disaster because we did not give in to Zelensky’s demands. and that Trump was just trying to look tough. How Kelly sees that he is not empowering Putin by trashing his own president is baffling.

Disaster in the Oval Office: Dems lead Zelensky, Ukraine off a cliff with pressure to reject mineral deal

Senator Murphy confirmed that Zelensky actually ambushed Trump by letting him think he was going to sign the mineral deal.
Before meeting President Trump, Zelensky met with anti-Trump Democrats who advised him to reject the terms of the mineral deal that the president was offering, according to Sen. Chris Murphy (D-Conn.).
“Just finished a meeting with President Zelensky here in Washington. He confirmed that the Ukrainian people will not support a fake peace agreement where Putin gets everything he wants and there are no security arrangements for Ukraine,” Murphy’s office posted on X at 11:15 a.m. Friday.
He attached a picture of Zelensky at a conference table, with Murphy seated on the opposite side.
