Right now, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy is being endlessly ridiculed by the conservative media in the United States.  One of the words that is being used to describe Zelenskyy is "stupid", but the truth is that Zelenskyy is not stupid at all.  I strongly disagree with Zelenskyy on a lot of things, but I also recognize that he is an incredibly cunning individual.  He has used the war with Russia to become one of the most famous celebrities on the entire planet.  Much of the global population is absolutely in love with him, and no matter what Zelenskyy does they just keep showering him and his nation with more cash.

But Donald Trump recognizes exactly what Zelenskyy is, and that presents a huge problem for Zelenskyy.

The U.S. has given more cash and military equipment to Ukraine than anyone else by a wide margin.

In fact, the U.S. was feverishly arming Ukraine even before the war began.

A lot of people do not realize this.

In the early days of the Biden administration, Zelenskyy's goal was to take the DPR and the LPR.  That is why there were 70,000 Ukrainian troops massed along the borders of the DPR and the LPR in February 2022.  Apparently Biden had given Zelenskyy a green light to go in.

But now we are in 2025, and there is an administration in the White House that wants to bring peace to the region.

Sadly, Zelenskyy does not want peace.

I will explain why below.

Zelenskyy is completely and utterly opposed to a peace agreement negotiated by Trump, and the argument that we witnessed in the Oval Office on Friday ensured that there will not be one any time soon.

Following that argument, several prominent Republican lawmakers suggested that it might be time for Zelenskyy to resign…

House Speaker Mike Johnson, R-La., suggested Sunday that Ukraine President Volodymyr Zelenskyy may need to resign to salvage the nascent Ukraine-Russia peace process, adding his voice to a growing debate sparked by the contentious Oval Office meeting between Zelenskyy with President Donald Trump last week.

"Something has to change," Johnson told NBC's "Meet the Press." "Either he needs to come to his senses and come back to the table in gratitude, or someone else needs to lead the country to do that."

Johnson's comments align with those of other officials like Sen. Lindsey Graham, R-S.C., who suggested that Zelenskyy step aside in remarks to reporters after the Friday meeting.
