Therefore, one would anticipate that he would provide insight on the monumental SmackDown at The Ovalâ„¢ Friday afternoon involving President Donald Trump, VP JD Vance, and the unappreciative Volodymyr Zelensky. As per our previous coverage, the Ukrainian president appeared to believe he held the upper hand and was the one calling the shots, despite his position in the office of the most influential individual in the world.
We know how that went.
Known for his ability to deliver sharp and concise analysis that triggers strong reactions from liberals, Miller was far from impressed. During an appearance on Fox News’ Jesse Watters show on Friday night, the Trump advisor expressed shock at the lack of urgency displayed by the Ukrainian leader to halt the ongoing violence:
Miller: Zelensky made several astonishing and troubling remarks. He consistently opposed President Trump’s suggestion of seeking a ceasefire.
Watters: Right. What is that?
Miller [gettin’ fired up]: How could you reject a ceasefire?!
And you know, he kept saying Europe’s doing so much more than us. Well, then, what do you need us for? If he’s saying Europe’s so great, then why are you coming and begging and pleading to us for money and protection and guarantees?
President Trump is a peacemaker—he will fight for peace. He had peace for four years under his previous term, and today we saw what it’s like to have a strong leader in the White House, and the whole world saw what it’s like to have a strong leader for America.
Watch:
🚨 Stephen Miller just laid the HAMMER down on Zelensky

@StephenM. If Europe wants to throw money into the fire, then that’s their prerogative. This isn’t our war.
We’ve been extensively covering Friday’s drama—you can find it all here—but here’s a sample:
