Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskiy and his administration don’t want anything to do with the scandal currently roiling in Washington, Reuters reported on Monday.
That’s a reasonable request but if you think it will have any impact on Trump, you haven’t been paying attention. Everyone and everything gets thrown under the bus if it benefits Trump.
Well, that has to be close to the ultimate example of having a lot to deal with and someone’s bugging you about some trivial thing and you say “Look, I really don’t need this right now.” Which they really don’t. I hope they can skirt the whole thing. They’ve actually got the receipts themselves and I suppose that’s occurred to everyone.
So Ukraine basically admits that Trump tried to shake them down.
“What happened was unspeakable. Let’s talk about something else. The fall weather is fine in Kyiv, and how about Dynamo Kyiv? If they only had a better striker, they’d be atop the league.”
“Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskiy and his administration don’t want anything to do with the scandal currently roiling in Washington, Reuters reported on Monday.”
How is that supposed to work when Ukraine has a helluva lot to do with the scandal currently roiling Washington?
Of course Zelensky wants no part of this. It’s nothing but a rock and a hard place for him. If he does Trump’s bidding he’s double screwed if Trump loses in 2020. If he tells Trump to jump in lake he’s screwed for now. So hell no he wants no part of it. I’ll bet his advisors tell him there’s a better than 50% chance Trump will lose in 2020 and take up the position of worst president ever. International leaders that kissed his ass will pay for that ( talking to you Aussie PM ). Zelensky’s best bet is to play against Trump or not play at all. Looks like he’s going to duck out.
