Summary

Trump and Zelenskyy’s confrontational Oval Office meeting advanced “mob boss foreign policy” serving Russian interests.

Trump and Vance bullied Zelenskyy when he refused their “extortionate” minerals deal or to thank them despite Trump’s stated intent to reduce support for Ukraine.

Zelenskyy effectively countered their claims by noting Russia’s 2014 invasion and correcting historical inaccuracies, which angered the Americans.

This represents the first openly “anti-US, anti-Western, anti-democracy foreign policy in American history.” Russians embraced it, and Putin ally and former Russian president Dmitry Medvedev celebrated the exchange.

    That was the most beautiful building? I hate Trump but it’s so plain. I was expecting something actually cool looking.

        No one said Trump Tower is better, only that the original building should, by basically any metric, be considered “among the most beautiful in New York”.

            Yea dude, it’s got a fancy entryway visible even in the first photo that I suppose I should have mentioned, and a lot of interior stuff that is specifically not part of the façade, which is what people had asked him to keep on the lower floors.

            I’d say try harder but you might hurt yourself.

              Sure campbells enjoy your McDonald’s, and bucky’s gas station architecture some of us appreciate art and class.

              I’d say try harder but you already have hurt yourself and it won’t help anyway.

        I live near Detroit, The Guardian Building especially the interior. I did a move job there for Wayne County. Beautiful building. One Detroit Center and The Fisher Theater too. The Renaissance Center can get pushed into the river though.
