Victor Davis Hanson: In Some Way, Zelenskyy Is An Authoritarian
The bottom line: The United States of America will not be extorted by a country whose leaders are more interested in what they can get out of the American people than peace. The point of the meeting? To sign a U.S.-Ukraine mineral deal. Donald Trump is “very tired subsidizing and pay for far-distant problems when we’re running a $37 trillion national debt,” and this deal would not only offset those costs but also by inviting “American business in to Ukraine, to help rebuild it and to profit…Putin will be less eager to attack you if he understands there's a thriving American concession there,” argues Victor Davis Hanson on today’s edition of “Victor Davis Hanson: In His Own Words:” “Donald Trump is incurring a lot of criticism lately on the Ukrainian war. He's trying to negotiate an end to the war. Remember, there's probably somewhere around 1.5 million dead, wounded, missing, and captured on both sides, together. That is the largest casualty rate figure total in Europe since the Battle of Stalingrad in 1942 and 1943. In his ‘Art of the Deal’ style he came in and he said some things the last week that got people very angry. I'll just give you two examples. He said that Zelenskyy was a dictator and that he “should have stopped the war and never started it. “That got people anguished because we know that Vladimir Putin invaded Ukraine on February 24th of 2022. So, why did Donald Trump say that? Of course, he doesn't believe that Zelenskyy started the war because he has campaigned himself on the following narrative: "Under George Bush, in 2008, Russia invaded Ossetia and Georgia. “In 2014, under the Obama administration, they invaded the Donbas and Crimea. On February 24th of 2022, under Joe Biden, they tried to take Kyiv. However, of the last four administrations, there was one in which they did not leave their borders to invade another nation—my administration. Why? Because unlike the prior three presidents, I was able to establish deterrence.”
