Zelensky’s Meltdown: A Desperate Man Gaslighting America Is Unraveling Before Our Eyes

Volodymyr Zelensky is unraveling before our eyes.
After his disastrous White House meeting with President Trump, where he was sent packing without securing more blank checks, the Ukrainian leader rushed to Twitter (X) in full-blown damage control mode. His panicked, rambling post wasn’t just an attempt to rewrite history—it was a clear psychological tell of a man who realizes he’s losing his grip on power.
His words weren’t those of a strategic leader but of a man desperately clinging to relevance, trying to smooth things over after burning his last bridge with America’s future president.
So, what’s really going on inside Zelensky’s head?
Zelensky’s Twitter Panic: A Classic Case of Manipulation
Zelensky’s post starts with:
“Ukraine is ready to come to the negotiating table as soon as possible… We want to move very fast through all next stages and work with the US to agree on a strong final deal.”
Translation: I’ve run out of options, and I need to backpedal—fast.
This isn’t diplomacy. This is a man in crisis mode, trying to gaslight Trump into believing he’s suddenly reasonable, when just days ago, he arrogantly dismissed negotiations and acted as if the U.S. was obligated to fund his war indefinitely.
Flattery Won’t Work on Trump—Zelensky Still Doesn’t Get It
Then, in a painfully transparent attempt to win Trump over, Zelensky wrote:
“We do really value how much America has done to help Ukraine… And we remember the moment when things changed when President Trump provided Ukraine with Javelins.”
Trump isn’t falling for this. Zelensky’s sudden nostalgia for Trump’s past generosity is a classic manipulative tactic—the same one used by people who burn bridges and come crawling back when they realize they need something.
His mistake? He still underestimates Trump. Flattery and revisionist history don’t work on someone who sees through the con.
