President Trump and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky verbally sparred in a fiery Oval Office exchange Friday.
The high-stakes visit went off the rails shortly after Vice President JD Vance leaned into Zelensky for seeming to slight his American counterparts.
Vance said it was “disrespectful for Zelensky to come into the Oval Office, litigating in front of the American media,” according to a pool report.
Trump then raised his voice, telling Zelensky, “you’re not really in a good position right now.”
“You’re gambling with WWIII,” the American president said.
“Have you said thank you once?” the vice president chimed in.
