Donald Trump made clear that his personal grudge with Ukraine President Volodymyr Zelensky hasn’t abated during a phone interview with NBC News.

Speaking with Meet the Press anchor Kristen Welker on Saturday, the president knocked Zelensky for offering assistance to the U.S. and Middle Eastern countries, the latter of which the Ukrainian president said on Friday were seeking his aid in sharing drone detection technology.

The “last person we need help from is Zelensky,” Trump told Welker.

That relationship exploded early last year, when the president and Vice President JD Vance appeared to engineer a confrontation with the Ukrainian leader at the White House. The two blamed him for gambling with “World War Three” as the conversation devolved into a shouting match in front of the cameras that stunned reporters in the room.

"Personal grudge"? Trump is a Russian asset. He doesn't give a fuck about Ukraine.

He's such an ungracious pile of garbage to the point where he's ok with our allies and citizens dying.

Of course, that fat bastard in the Oval Office being the running dog for the Kremlin.

I'm sure it's an open secret in Ukraine.

lets hope the Devil stops controlling him. And all the other nations can forgive those who voted this nightmare on the world. he wanted a nobel prize lets give him a trophy for starting Armageddon

Let's not. He's too dumb to understand the context, it could be a trophy made of literal shit and he wouldn't understand it's not a celebration of him

Ukraine is one of 2 nations that have first hand experience with drone warfare and the defence against. I wonder what the US generals are thinking? Maybe Russia has offered to help.

Why would a Russian asset successfully weakening our ties with other countries, destroying our economy, and exposing our troops to unnecessary harm... want something that works?

He and his maggot faithful are speed running losing as if it were their explicit purpose.
