This is thuggery from Trump and Vance, plain and simple.
They are bullying the brave true patriot Zelensky into accepting a deal which effectively hands victory to Russia. Unless the UK and Europe step up, we are facing a betrayal of Ukraine.

Trump berates Zelensky, the leader of a democratic country courageously fighting Russian imperialism, while he allies himself with Putin, a dictator who started the bloodiest European war in 80 years.
Sorry, President Trump. We believe in democracy, not authoritarianism.

Proud of you, Janet Mills. Tell that pompous moron to stick his federal funding up his arse!! Don’t stand for his BS for one instant. The only thing I wish you’d done while you were at it was ask him about the score in last night’s hockey game 🇨🇦!!
Thank you, Janet Mills.
This is how all our elected officials everywhere should be confronting Trump's authoritarian "we are the law" sentiment. Head on.

The government should draw up plans for Tesla tariffs to hit Musk where it hurts, if Trump follows through with his threats to the UK steel industry.
Trump and Musk can't be allowed to bully the UK while the Conservatives and Nigel Farage cheer them on from the sidelines.
