Couch Schtuper blames Biden for his blowup with Zelenskyy
WASHINGTON – Vice President JD Vance suggested he wasn’t looking to goad Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy into an Oval Office shouting match back in February, but he thinks the testy exchange helped shed light on the administration’s concerns with Ukraine.
“Sometimes people disagree,” Vance said Wednesday, Aug. 27, in a wide-ranging interview with USA TODAY that covered topics including President Donald Trump's deployment of National Guard troops to fight crime, the Taylor Swift-Travis Kelce engagement, and the president's controversial efforts to oust a Federal Reserve governor. “Do I wish that we had had a blowup in the Oval Office in public? Not necessarily.”
But, he added of the shocking televised throw-down, “I think that was useful for the American people to see.”
The Feb. 28 Oval Office confrontation between Vance, Zelenskyy and President Trump took place as Zelenskyy visited the White House to sign a deal for the United States to receive revenue from Ukraine’s minerals in exchange for military assistance against Russia's invasion.
