California Democratic Sen. Adam Schiff is melting down again this week over President Donald Trump.
Schiff accused Trump of “betraying” Ukraine and failing to achieve peace in a deal with Russia to end the war during an unstructured interview on CNN.
The war started under former President Joe Biden and Schiff seemed to already be blaming Trump for not finding a way to end the war even though he’s only been in office for one month.
“This is an effort to pressure Zelenskyy into giving up something for nothing. And I have to say this, on top of the resolution at the United Nations where the United States sided with Russia, betrayed Ukraine, is one of the most shameful incidents in modern history,” Schiff began.
“I think millions and millions and millions of Americans watching this not only disagree with the president, but maybe for the first time, are just downright ashamed of the president because we have betrayed an ally. We’ve not only betrayed an ally, but we’ve betrayed our principles. Are we to be nothing except transactional now? We have no commitment to democracy, no commitment to our allies. It’s all going to be about the money that seems to be Donald Trump’s orientation, but what a sad chapter of our history,” he added.
Schiff whined, “I have to imagine the only thing in it for Zelenskyy is maybe trying to improve somewhat his relationship with this hostile U.S. President who seems so beholden to Vladimir Putin. Frankly, I think it’s a difficult errand for Zelenskyy. He has been really Churchillian in his leadership through these three years of war. Ukraine has made just tremendous sacrifices and to be reduced to this by his most important ally, the United States, coming hat in hand with some kind of fig leaf offer of the mineral wealth of his country in exchange for little or nothing — it is really just tawdry. But it is what this administration has reduced our allies to.”
