Crypto Gamblers Bet Against Zelenskyy After Trump Meeting: A Comedy of Errors!

Ah, the curious case of crypto gamblers, those modern-day soothsayers, who have wagered a staggering sum of over $627,000 on the notion that our beleaguered Ukrainian President, Volodymyr Zelenskyy, will take his leave before the sun sets on July. Such audacity! Such folly! 😏

As the clock ticks, the wise sages of Polymarket, that grand bazaar of predictions, have calculated a mere 19% chance of Zelenskyy’s hasty retreat. One must wonder, do they possess a crystal ball or merely a penchant for mischief?

Meanwhile, the esteemed leaders of the European Union are preparing to gather on Sunday, perhaps to discuss the finer points of diplomacy over tea and crumpets, as they ponder a peace plan for Ukraine. Another rendezvous is scheduled for March 6, because why not? The more, the merrier! 🎉

What went wrong with the US?

On a fateful Friday, Zelenskyy graced the White House with his presence, seeking wisdom from President Donald Trump, a man who fancies himself a master of the deal. Alas, the discussions concluded without a morsel of agreement. Trump, in his characteristic fashion, chastised Zelenskyy for his apparent lack of gratitude towards the U.S. “You have to be thankful. You don’t have the cards right now,” he proclaimed, as if they were playing a game of poker rather than discussing the fate of nations.

For weeks, Trump has been urging Ukraine to relinquish a hefty portion of its mineral wealth to the U.S., offering little more than empty promises in return, as reported by the ever-watchful Associated Press. “You’re either going to make a deal or we’re out, and if we’re out, you’ll fight it out and I don’t think it’s going to be pretty,” he warned, as if he were narrating a particularly grim fairy tale.

“I’m not playing cards,” Zelenskyy retorted, his voice steady. “I’m very serious, Mr. President. I’m the president in a war.” A poignant reminder that this is no game, but a struggle for survival.

Meanwhile, the ever-astute Russian President, Vladimir Putin, continues to deny Ukraine’s sovereignty, spinning historical narratives like a master storyteller to justify his invasion. How quaint! 🥴

Vice President JD Vance, in a moment of misplaced fervor, chose to berate Zelenskyy instead of casting a disapproving glance at Putin’s actions. “Have you said thank you once this entire meeting?” he inquired, as if counting the number of times Zelenskyy had expressed gratitude was the key to resolving the conflict.

In truth, Zelenskyy has thanked the U.S. nearly three dozen times, as CNN diligently noted. Just recently, on February 12, he expressed his gratitude on X, formerly known as Twitter, for Trump’s interest in collaboration.

I had a meaningful conversation with @POTUS. We long talked about opportunities to achieve peace, discussed our readiness to work together at the team level, and Ukraine’s technological capabilities—including drones and other advanced industries. I am grateful to President Trump…

Zelenskyy to Vance: ‘Come once’

Vance, in a fit of indignation, chastised Zelenskyy for attempting to “litigate” the conflict resolution in the Oval Office, deeming it disrespectful while noting Ukraine’s struggles with manpower. “Have you ever been to Ukraine that you say what problems we have?” Zelenskyy challenged. “Come once.” A bold invitation, indeed!

Vance, flustered, retorted: “I’ve actually watched and seen the stories, and I know that what happens is you bring people, you bring them on a propaganda tour, Mr. President. Do you disagree that you’ve had problems, bringing people into your military?” Ah, the irony of a political spectacle!

Trump, ever the dramatist, blamed Zelenskyy’s “hatred” toward Putin for complicating the talks. “That’s very tough for me to make a deal with that kind of hate,” he lamented, as if he were a heartbroken lover rather than a world leader.
