Of all those clips, did anyone catch this exchange that went something like this:

Z- You have nice ocean, you don't feel it now but you will feel it in the future

Trump: Don't tell us how we're going to feel. (there is more, but started with that.

Z- You will feel influence. You will feel influence.

So... what did he mean by that? Sounded mildly threatening... not that he has the power to threaten a thing, but I found it odd.

What do you think Z was implying?

Z wants us and our men in this war. He envisions the US men dying to protect his stubbornness.

His whole schtick is to send him money because if we don’t stop Russia in Ukraine Putin will take over the world.

He thinks this will affect us if we don’t protect them. It won’t as Russia will never come to our country and we won’t be there. EU and NATO won’t do shite either if he thinks those countries will pressure us.

Sounded like a threat to the American homeland. If you notice in the full video, Trump said nothing until Zelenskyy said that. Then he was pissed, and rightfully so.

Ocean protects us from Russia but they'll come for us eventually.

Not saying I agree with him. Just translating.

He’s trying to scare us by saying Putin’s going to attack us in some way, which Putin wouldn’t do.

Thank you for grabbing that clip, it cut off before the influence part... but it is what I was talking about, glad others noticed it.

He was referring to Russia. The whole point he’s made since the war started is that once Russia is done with them, they will turn their eyes at other targets.

That's how I was hearing it. What does Z have going on behind the scenes to give him such confidence in speaking that way to the USA?

I didn't "hear" it that way. Honestly, I heard it in a way that he (Z) has backing from Euro and some of our own Ukraine first pols.

I think he either meant pressure from Russia or the European Union.

He really should have kept his trap shut. It's not wise to mouth off to the president of the country that's bankrolling your war.
