33 times Zelensky thanked Americans and US leaders — a number counted by CNN journalists over the course of the full-scale war. This comes amid accusations from Trump and Vance that Zelensky has shown “insufficient gratitude” toward the US.

Trump wanted the humiliate Zelensky in front of the cameras 1) show Zelensky kiss his ring 2) if that didn’t work ambush him Either way it’s strange how the Russian Duma called out exactly what Trump was going to do the day BEFORE.

Trump and his ilk only measure gratitude in capitulation, and it's rarely ever symmetric. Anything less is a betrayal to them. Every service they provide is measured. Every donation, a future obligation to be called upon when and how they choose.

The fact of the matter is Ukraine doesn’t need to thank the US, we should be thankful for your bravery, perseverance, and defense of democracy. Heartbroken.

TFG was all pissy-mad because President Zelenskyy wasn't gushing all over him with extravagant gratitude for things President BIDEN had done. TFG has to be petted and patted and praised for excellence and wonderfulness in things he never even did. He's a petulant 3-year-old with presidential power.

As an American who has NEVER voted for Trump, I apologize for how Zelensky was treated. Please know that at least 1/2 of our country stands with you in your fight for freedom and we were appalled at how your leader was treated yesterday. DT is not our President.

We are a disgrace. America as we know it died yesterday. Putin wins, America loses. Europe has to be meeting pronto to save Ukraine no matter what it takes. What a shame.

I believe trump and JD were upset because when President Zelensky thanked USA he wasn’t on his hands and knees groveling. I can only say l’m so sorry. I’m embarrassed these ppl are our ‘leaders’. The term is used loosely. I apologize for my country. It appears my ‘leaders’ are Russian assets.

He has been thanking the USA for over 8 years. And funny too, the GOP Senate VOTED to grant Zelensky the funds! Sooo, why are they loosening up those stiff collars and clutching their pearls?

A common way for school kids to stand up to a bully is to stand as a unit. We need NATO and European country leaders to stop wringing their hands and stand shoulder to shoulder and tell Donald Trump that they won't stand for his bully tactics any longer.

Trump was yelling over him. Trump was upset that he would not grovel at his feet and hand over Ukraine's minerals etc, Trump wanted to share the spoils with his murderous pal Putin, But its to be expected from a felon

It is unacceptable and we are so very sorry. Ukraine is fighting for their lives & these ugly turds are asking for you to get on your knees & beg. Please know, many of us are fighting for our country as well. We are all connected trying to fight back fascism in our own little corners of the world.

Please accept our sincerest apologies. The majority of Americans here revere President Zelensky & stand with Ukraine. President Zelensky has thanked the US (& former allies), even though we could & SHOULD have done more. Trump & Vance are a disgrace. President Zelensky is a leader. Slava Ukraine! 🇺🇦

Republicans are too stupid to realize they have been snookered by Trump who is all Russia & autocracy. Soon he will put the boots to senators & Congress bc he won’t need them bc will be KING. Your country going down & republicans watching. Trump & Vance disrespect USA.
