Excludes restaurants President Zelensky of Ukraine is going gloves off. He's calling out Donald Trump's weakness in public. Let's take a look at what Zelinsky just said. He also gave a powerful interview with Sky News in advance of Donald Trump's trip to the United Kingdom. I want to show you that because it was clearly timed right before Donald Trump arrives in the uk. Then I want to contrast that with Donald Trump's incredibly weak rhetoric from today. Weak would be an understatement as well as Marco Rubio's weakness words. Again, would be an understatement. So earlier this morning, President Zelensky posted the following Every single day, Russian terror continues, and every single day the Russians reject the possibility of ending this war, of ceasing fire and truly talking about peace. We in Ukraine have responded positively to all the proposals from the US And Trump to end all of these attacks and killings. Ukraine has also proactively put forward various formats to bring the war to an end. It is Putin alone who is interested in these killings every day. This war remains solely his war, the war of Russia alone. Pause right there. That's in clear response to Donald Trump's social media post blaming the war and saying this is Biden and Zelinsky's war. So Zelinsky saying this is Russia's war alone. Clap back. Just saying, shut up Donald. Then he goes on to say, and we expect the world to draw conclusions from this in Other words, stop being an idiot, Donald. Stop being a Putin bootlicker, Donald. Then Zelinsky goes on to say, especially after the drone incursion into Poland, a country that is extremely important for the security of all of Europe. In other words, if you don't give a crap about Ukraine, Donald, which you should, what's next, Poland? What's next? All of NATO, Donald, pay attention because they're coming from you, you Putin bootlicker. Then he goes on to say, a country that respects America and President Trump, hello, Poland likes you. They just showed up. You may not like me, Donald. Poland likes you. They respect you. So realize what the hell is going on, you moron. Then Zelinsky goes on to say, it is crucial that Europe truly understands when it comes to Russia, it's not about one neighbor or another, it's about everyone. Otherwise, Russia will draw its own conclusions and only expand the war and not necessarily against Ukraine alone. Then Zelensky was asked during this interview with Sky News, do you think that Putin is trying to manipulate and trick Donald Trump? Here, play this clip.
- [03:44]
Volodymyr Zelensky
He definitely wants to trick the U.S. he's doing everything he can to avoid sanctions, to prevent us and Trump from putting sanctions on him. And if you keep postponing applying sanctions any further, then the Russians will be better prepared.
- [04:07]
Midas
Yeah. And he goes, yeah, they want to continue the war. They want to postpone meetings on a ceasefire. Here, play this clip.
- [04:14]
Volodymyr Zelensky
You know that they want to continue the war and that's why they postponed, you know, these meetings of decisions and about ceasefire. And it's not about ceasefire in any way. Yes. I don't know what.
- [04:27]
Midas
What.
- [04:27]
Volodymyr Zelensky
This in their heads is difficult to understand, but we have to recognize that they don't want peace. It's understandable.
- [04:36]
Midas
Now, Donald Trump, on his way to the United Kingdom, was asked about Ukraine. And Donald Trump's response was, it takes two to tango. That's his word. It takes two to tango. Zelinsky and Putin hate each other. And it looks like I'm going to have to get in the room. Putin doesn't want you in the room. Zelinsky wants you in the room. Someone wants to tango, you idiot, and it's Zelinsky. Zelinsky's agreeable to a ceasefire, Putin isn't. And Putin agreed to a ceasefire tomorrow, Donald. There would be no war. But weren't you the person who said that if you went to Alaska and Putin did not agree to the ceasefire, you would impose strong sanctions against Russia? But then Putin didn't agree to cease fire and didn't agree to security guarantees and didn't agree to a bilateral and trilateral meeting and instead used the meeting in Alaska as the biggest global humiliation in the history of the United States. As you, traitor Donald, ordered our troops to get on their knees and roll out the red carpet to our sworn enemy, Vladimir Putin on American territory. That photograph will forever, as long as Russia is an authoritarian Putin like country, be in their museums the day they brought America to its knees. And it will be a shameful memory of one of the most humiliating points in American history. Play this clip of Donald Trump tango. Do to tango. Who likes this guy? I mean, for real, this guy's an idiot. Here, play this clip.
- [06:16]
Volodymyr Zelensky
A month on, do you think that meeting was conflicting?
- [06:18]
Midas
Yeah, accomplished a lot. But it takes two to tango also. You know, those are two people, Zelensky and Putin, that hate each other. And it looks like I have to sit in the room with them because they can't sit in the room together. There's great hatred there. But no, that meeting accomplished a lot. Oh, and you remember what Donald Trump said on March 15, 2025? He said when he said that he would bring peace to Ukraine 24 hours after the election. That was a joke. He was being sarcastic. Donald being funny. This is. He jokes about war and peace. Ah, we, we should have known. It was all one big sarcastic joke. Here, play this clip. I'm not understating the complexity of all.
- [07:00]
Commercial Announcer
This, but as a candidate, you said.
- [07:02]
Volodymyr Zelensky
You would have this war settled in 24 hours.
- [07:05]
Midas
Well, I was being a little bit sarcastic when I said that I would. What I really mean is I'd like to get it settled. How pathetic is that? I want to remind you of this as well. 89 days into the Trump presidency on April 18, 2025. Remember when Marco Rubio held that meeting with Russians back then? And then he came out and he was like, we have a framework. We have a framework. They always have frameworks. That's their term, frameworks. Frameworks of a trade deal, concepts of plans where they manipulate the market, manipulate sentiment, manipulate our stupid corporate media in the United States. Look, we've got a friend. They did a FR work. Yay. I mean, it's so utterly dumb. This is April 18th, 2025. Just to remind you, 89 days into the Trump presidency, when Rubio said the US will move on if they're unable to achieve peace in a couple of days from day 89. Well, now we're well into past 200 days. Rubio, what are you going to do other than show utter weakness. Here, play this clip.
- [08:10]
Commercial Announcer
I'm not going to tell you what the framework says because when you start negotiating these things through the media and so forth, they follow people part. And it's a broad framework. It's a framework that gets us into a position to see, look, there are going to be differences. There's no, there's no one saying it's going to be done in 12 hours. But we want to see how far apart it is and whether those differences are, can even be narrowed if it's even possible to get movement within the period of time we have in mind. And so we've talked about outlines of both sides. I thought we had positive meetings yesterday. Obviously the Ukrainians have to go back home. They have to run it by their president. They have to take into account, you know, their views on all of this and we hope to hear back from them very soon. But we need to figure out here now, within a matter of days whether this is doable in the short term because if it's not, then I think we're just going to move on.

Going back to the Zelensky interview as well, Zelinsky talks about it's hard to send messages to people without ears. Just think about that. How smart Zelinsky is to even use phraseology like that when English is not his main language. To say it's hard to send a message to people without ears. By the way, it's clear. He ain't just talking about Putin. He's talking about Donald as well. Here, play this clip.
- [10:25]
Volodymyr Zelensky
You know, it's difficult to have messages to people without ears. You know, they don't want to hear. They live in their fish tank. It's really. They think that there is their world. By the way, they have the name Russian world is true. And they think that they can count to bring back all the countries who've been in the Soviet Union. And they think that this is the Russian justice. Yes. To bring back all of them under their rules and to have this, this joint country, Russian empire. And of course, they think that it's right. And what is terrible that young people, young people think the same way. This is their young faces, but they are really old people. They are really old Soviet people.
- [11:31]

And Zelensky says that he is ready to meet with Trump and Putin. He's just not going to Moscow. It's like, why would I go to Moscow? They'll kill me if I go to Moscow. They are the invading country. I don't go to Moscow, meet literally anywhere else. I would have gone to Alaska. I'll go somewhere in Europe. I'll go to somewhere in Africa. I'll go to somewhere in the Middle East. I'll go anywhere. I'm just not going to Moscow. That's stupid. I'm not going to Moscow. Here, play this clip.
- [11:56]
Volodymyr Zelensky
I'm ready. I'm ready to meet with President Trump and Putin, but I'm ready to meet without any kind of conditions. Are you willing to go to Moscow to do that?
- [12:07]
Recycle Oregon Announcer
Because that is something that Vladimir Putin has suggested.
- [12:10]
Volodymyr Zelensky
No, of course not. Of course not. It's not conditions, it's the situation. Russia attacked us. I can't go to the country when this country, this city, Moscow, they're attacking us. So it can't be so under missiles to go to their capital. It can't be sure, but we can meet in any other country.
- [12:35]
Midas
And Zelinsky says one day Russians will see that Putin destroyed their history. Here, play this clip.
- [12:42]
Volodymyr Zelensky
What to say to them if, if they don't want to hear. Yes, there is only one thing. That of course, of course, after some years, I don't know when, after, after some years. Yes, of course they will. Maybe even they will not understand, but they, they had. They will have to recognize that Putin destroyed their history. And they will apologize and their children will apologize and their grandchildren who didn't fight, they will apologize because of this. And this is a fact. Ukraine is really one country for today, one country who is smaller than Russia but decided to fight for children and for freedom because Ukrainians want to be free. It's just in our blood, like, you know, that's why Ukraine want to be European.

Zelinsky then posted this video right here and says, a typical day for Russia, which unfortunately continues to avoid strong global pressure. In response to prolonging the war at night, there was a series of brutal artillery and aerial bomb strikes, strikes on Zapricia against ordinary homes and city infrastructure, Kharkiv and other areas here. Play this clip. And by the way, Donald Trump's claim that he'll impose sanctions if Europe starts stops buying oil from Russia. I've debunked this over and over again. Who's Donald Trump's best ally in Europe? Hungary, Slovakia. Where do they get their oil from? Russia directly. Whereas the rest of Europe does not get oil directly from Russia, Hungary does. Hungary is led by Victor Orban. The authoritarian leader there was very unpopular there, by the way, now and will probably lose the election in a year. But he obviously wants to try to block free and fair elections. And one of the things he wants Putin's help with there. We're going to see similar things with Trump there in the midterms. But Viktor Orban wrote Donald Trump a letter complaining how Zelinsky has been knocking out Russian oil depots of Hungary and Slovakia. Then Donald Trump responded to Orban and said, that makes me very upset to hear that Zelinsky is destroying the oil depots. You should be getting your oil from Russia. Donald Trump said, well, the hell. So your whole attack on Europe is bs. They are getting some small amounts, very small amounts, sometimes from India, which buys from Russia. So there are ways around these sanctions. But by and large, Europe has reduced its oil dependency on Russia by significant amounts and has imposed serious sanctions, except for Hungary and Slovakia, which gets direct from Russia, which Donald Trump applauds. And by the way, Donald Trump lifted travel sanctions against Hungary yesterday and Hungary's trade minister announced that. So Trump's rewarding Hungary for getting its oil from Russia. It's how you know, what they're saying is total and utter BS right there. And I showed you the video that Zielinski posted here. Play the clip in case I did. Now, finally, Zelinsky writes, in Zaprezia, first responders have completed extinguishing fires after the city was shelled by Russian artillery. They struck deliberately to terrorize our people. Thirteen were wounded, including two children. Many residential buildings were damaged. In another region, one person was killed when an ordinary farm came under fire. My condolences to the family and loved ones of Kyiv, Sumy, Kharkiv, Donetsk and Kherson regions were also under attack. Over 100 drones and over 150 glide bombs in just this one night. Emergency services are responding wherever they are needed. Since the beginning of September alone, more than 3500 drones of various types and nearly 190 missiles, along with more than 2500 aerial bombs have been launched against our people. There have also been provocations against our partners. This is precisely the kind of aerial terror against which Ukraine is calling for joint defense so that no one has to scramble combat aircraft in haste and feel Russia's pressure on their fricking border. That's how it's done. Zelinsky standing up and fighting back and Trump looking like an idiot.
