One thing that pops out quite strongly to me is that when Trump tells Zelensky that they aren't winning the war, Zelensky responds with

We are staying in our country. We are staying strong

Zelensky can't even say in public that they are winning, or have a chance of winning. Only that the fighting will continue. He wants to continue bleeding Ukrainian lives no matter what. He has no rebuke to Trump's statement that they are wasting life, or gambling with WW3. It's a testament of how delusional you have to be that Trump is coming across as the reasonable voice of peace when dealing with you!

That’s what I thought seeing that, Trump should never be the one making a reasonable statement in any room.
