War in Ukraine

[utvolpj]

This is the best argument you have against Trump?

No I've made plenty of great ones and there will be more. This was simply an observation based on the very important suit discussion.

 

[just bob]

It just looked like a room full of petty, insecure little people.

I love it! You're crying that your little hero was bullied! Bullied! hahahahahahahaha

 

[GroverCleveland]

The White House Press Corps is petty and insecure?

Say it ain't so!

The exchange with the guy in the blue suit was just piling on and bullying. He knew he could easily get away with it and joined in with the cool kids.

I thought he was with the press, I agree it probably put him at a defensive position.... that doesn't matter though. What really started it is, he said he would never sign another deal with the Russians than he tried a bully tactic. That isn't going to work, its suicidal with that group of people.

They didn't really want him there, he took it as an opportunity to strong arm in front cameras and you just can't do that.

Serious, professional people..... not snowflakes.

Don’t get emotional

Fitted? I could grab a better fitting one at Belk. He's always looked frumpy, especially for a billionaire

A good fitting suit only looks good on a body worth showing off. If I get a perfectly tailored suit for a watermelon, it's still gonna look like a watermelon in a suit.

Big Tennessee fan though, wears his gameday face paint every day.

I have jobs before that required shirt and tie and neat trimmed hair cuts...no sloppiness allowed in the office at all...it's called PROFESSIONALISM

I won’t waste forum bandwidth dropping the meme again but Sure Jan. It was petty and completely unrelated to the discussion

 

[Ashevolle]

Lolol. I'm not the one crying about people not dressing up.

Lord.

Amazing I have not seen the "great" posts. Nothing wrong with Trump's suit...you just have a need to criticize.

I won’t waste forum bandwidth dropping the meme again but Sure Jan. It was pretty and completely unrelated to the discussion

Z had no professionalism.

 

[LSU-SIU]

People are saying he said more than b****, he said something to the equivalent of f****** b****.

That was actually before Vance really got going.

 

[General Jack]

If I had to guess, Trump suit was most likely tailored fitted and cost a few grand.

Those that show disrespect are the clowns. When Z goes onto someone else's house he better show respect.

Tony Soprano approves this message.

But even T and his boys didn't wear orange face and guyliner .

 

[NorthDallas40]

Z had no professionalism.

Nobody in the room did then.

 

[Matt2496]

No, he was put on display all alone to be insulted and humiliated. That's how cowards act and the guy badgering him about the suit is just that.

It's how they treat everyone not in DC, even the American people

I've gone back and watched the context. The press conference wasn't hostile until Zelensky talked back to JD Vance who was stating that the US should be/is engaging in diplomacy. Trump should not have raised his voice and argued back as that wasn't the time nor the place, but just blindly blaming Trump/Vance (like what many are doing in this thread) isn't entirely accurate or justified. The way Zelensky approached it was very disrespectful, and Trump was disrespectful back to Zelensky.

Also, the guy badgering Zelensky about the suit is a moron.

 

[BeardedVol]

I know Trump and Rubio have had disagreements in the past, the issue was the way Rubio was sitting on the couch that was misread.

Lol, why cause Rubio came out and fellated trump on twitter?

It's been shown that Rubio will quite literally say anything and change his position on a whim if Trump demands it of him.

So what he said afterwards vs his body language in the moment is irrelevant.

 

[bamawriter]

well to some people it's a sign of disrespect.

Anyone who would get this bent out of shape over this particular "sign of disrespect" is a total wimp.

Exclusive: Hegseth orders Cyber Command to stand down on Russia planning

Kind of on topic. Nice.

You just don't see them at our corporate offices. More likely to see the ceo in a name tag than a tie

the whle room had professionlaism except Z

 

[UTSuave’]

Yall can say what you want about trump but i didn’t see Putin on US soil during an election year campaigning with a foreign political party…..justifying that would be crazy work…its not hard to spot a lobbyist

I just believe if you're bigger and more powerful you should be able to convey that rationally. We know it's very easy to bait Trump but I thought Vance would be harder (unless he was showing off for the boss). When my kids starts badgering me for something in public I react better than they did.
