Let's compare how trump treats President Zelensky compared to Putin-will trump roll out red carpet or other honors

trump rolled out the red carpet for Putin and gave him full military honors including a B-2 flyover

This honorary flyover that Trump did for Putin cost, for the B-2 stealth bomber alone, cost $2,080,000.




trump clapped for putin when he arrived


I was amused to see that the trump White House has deleted the clip of trump clapping for putin



I have no doubt that these honors will not be granted to President Zelensky

Zelenskyy is bringing most of the western European leaders with him as an honor guard. The orange slime wouldn't dare snub them!
