Trump Embarrasses Himself, Not Zelenskyy.

Donald Trump publicly embarrassed himself by trying to belittle Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy during what should have been a critical moment for peace talks.

What an utter disgrace: Donald Trump publicly humiliated himself by attempting to belittle Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy during what was supposed to be a moment for peace negotiations. Instead, it became an attack on one of our most crucial allies—a shameful display of self-interest and blatant disregard for diplomacy.

Trump didn’t take on an enemy. He didn’t challenge an adversary. No, he became the very thing our nation despises: an authoritarian. He turned his back on Ukraine, a nation fighting for its survival.

This isn’t just embarrassing. It’s a direct threat to our democracy.

A man like Donald Trump, who consistently undermines the rule of law and weakens our Constitution, poses a clear and present danger to every American. He’s sought to dismantle the 14th Amendment, strip away our fundamental freedoms, and centralize power under his control—eroding the very foundations of our government. This is no longer just a political issue. It’s a battle for the soul of our nation.

What Trump did to President Zelenskyy wasn’t just disrespectful—it was dangerous. Zelenskyy, in a moment of restraint, extended an olive branch: “During the war, everybody has problems, even you. But you have nice ocean and don’t feel now. But you will feel it in the future. God bless, you will not have war.” Trump’s response? "Don't tell us what we're gonna feel. We're trying to solve a problem." How’s that for a leader who should stand for peace, freedom, and the protection of democracy?

I remember when the President of the United States was a beacon of leadership and strength for the free world. But under Trump, we’ve seen something else entirely: a man who, time and time again, has been nothing more than a pawn to Vladimir Putin. A man who’s repeatedly turned his back on Ukraine and global stability. While Zelenskyy has worked tirelessly to broker peace, Trump has actively worked against it.

Let’s not fool ourselves—Trump’s animosity toward Ukraine runs far deeper than his servitude to Putin. It’s personal. His first impeachment was triggered by his abuse of power against Ukraine, attempting to use military aid as leverage to coerce Zelenskyy into investigating his political rival. Trump’s disgraceful actions led to his first impeachment, and it’s clear he still harbors that bitter grudge. His vendetta is playing out on the world stage, and it’s costing us our credibility and our alliances.

It’s appalling that somebody like Donald Trump, weak and vindictive, holds the highest office in the land. Make no mistake—President Kamala Harris would never let this kind of damage unfold. She would fight for democracy, defend our allies, and safeguard the future of freedom.

This country will never fully comprehend the cost of electing Donald Trump. We are witnessing our reputation, our alliances, and our core values unravel under the weight of his incompetence.

I refuse to sit idly by as this country crumbles. I refuse to watch as the very ideals that made America great are trampled upon. That’s why I made the bold decision to leave everything behind, to move hundreds of miles, and to enter one of the most fiercely contested congressional districts in the nation.

Yes, it’s a risk—but this fight is worth it.

I’ve fought and won battles from the State House to the White House. Now, I’m ready to take this fight to Congress and flip the House. But I can’t do it alone.

If you believe in this cause, if you’re ready to stand up and reclaim what’s been stolen from us, I need your support. Upgrade to a paid subscription on my Substack so I can stay on the road, engaging with voters, and building the coalition we need to win.

It’s because of your support that I’m out here on the front lines, not behind a desk. This fight is about more than one election. It’s about taking our country back from those who’ve sold us out, who’ve weakened us, and who’ve betrayed our values.

Stand with me. Together, we will
