Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky has invited former President Trump to his country’s war zone, saying the former president “can’t manage this war.”

Zelensky, who joined NBC “Meet the Press” Kristen Welker, responded to Trump’s claims that he could end the war with Russia in 24 hours.

“Former President Trump said that about 24 hours, that he can manage it and finish the war,” Zelensky said during the interview that airs Sunday. “For me, what can I say? So he’s very welcome as well.”

“President Biden was here, and I think he understood some details which you can understand only being here,” Zelenskyy continued. “So I invite President Trump. If he can come here, I will need 24 minutes.”

In March, the former president said he could “solve” the war in Ukraine in one day if he were reelected, noting that the negotiation process would be “very easy.”

The Ukrainian president said he would need just 24 minutes instead of 24 hours to explain to Trump that he can’t end the war as easily as he thinks he could.

Zelensky added that peace can’t be negotiated with Russian President Vladimir Putin, even if Trump were to try.

He can’t leave the country because he’s indicted in 4 different jurisdictions and also, he’s a fucking coward.

Can we have his Scottish golf course back then? We can put some more wind turbines on it, that’ll annoy him.

Yeah, that’s because Trumps idea of finishing the war is to just hand the country to Putin. He said he could end the war in 24 hours, not win it.

Is Zelensky assuming Trump wants to end it favorably for Ukraine?

Of course he is. We all know which side Trump is rooting for already.

I remember the video when a picture had to be taken with some EU leaders, it was so awkward to watch and actually disgraceful: m.youtube.com/watch?v=Iimj0j4NYME

And EU leaders gossiping about him was hilarious: m.youtube.com/watch?v=NEoOJ0uRskY

Sorry Americans, so sorry. We’re not laughing at you we’re laughing at this buffoon.

Edit: someone post a piped link, cause for the life of me I can’t find it anywhere. Is it an app, is it a website? Too drunk and lazy at this point to find out.

I’ve literally seen cats with more complex reasoning capabilities than Trump.

You could write an incredibly simple algorithm to accurately predict every single thing he does. He is not an actual person. He is not a human being. He’s just a sucking black hole of narcissism. He’s a creature of pure Id.

I think it's just the honour system, since I believe he still has his passports.

I think we should introduce a special condition where he’s allowed to leave the country as long as the place is going is an active war zone.

He’s the epitome of a manager, he spent his stint at the White House running his mouth and desperately hoping somebody else would do anything that required more effort than posing in photo shoots, of course a war would’ve blown a hole through the pile of shit he calls a public appearance.
