Nate, who volunteered with the Ukrainian military, expressed disappointment in his cousin\u2019s behavior and Trump\u2019s handling of the situation, stressing the importance of decorum in politics.<\/p>\n
The meeting escalated quickly, with Trump criticizing Zelenskyy, and JD Vance questioning his gratitude for U.S. aid. Trump dismissed Zelenskyy, saying he wasn’t ready for peace and warned against \u201cgambling with World War Three.\u201d<\/p>\n
