At a shameful White House meeting last week between convicted felon/adjudicated sexual abuser President Trump and his #2, JD Vance, Trump and Vance bullied and yelled at Ukrainian President Zelensky in a televised display of anger and resentment toward the leader of a democratic country that’s been invaded by Russia. Beyond this, as bad as the made-for-Russia meeting already was, Brian Glenn, White House correspondent for the right-wing cable channel Real America’s Voice, chimed in and berated Zelenskyy over his war time clothing, to the delight of Trump’s cabinet. You can see the harassment of Zelenskyy over his war time attire playing out in the clip above. If you’d like more context or want to see the entirety of the cringy meeting, you can watch a video of the whole 50-minute meeting deteriorating into a bullying session here. Snyder is also a Professor of History at Yale University and a permanent fellow at the Institute for Human Sciences in Vienna.
