Gretchen Carlson implied that the verbal altercation between President Trump, Vice President Vance, and Ukrainian President Zelensky was a contrived spectacle. During a discussion on CNN, she highlighted Trump's acknowledgment of the moment as 'great TV,' suggesting it was orchestrated to resonate with American viewers. Carlson emphasized the implications of such staged events on Ukraine-U.S. relations and questioned the sincerity of the exchange, particularly concerning future support for Ukraine amid ongoing conflict. She raised concerns about prioritizing media attention over critical international relations, labeling the situation as a matter of life and death.
But I felt like it was completely planned, Abby. I mean, even Trump said this was great TV, and it's sort of like he let the cat out of the bag.
I think that this was staged, planned because Trump and Vance know they're playing to the American public more than anything else.
And if you go on any social media, you're seeing people say, yay, we got America back again, make America great again.
I mean, this is different than being tough on crime or tough at the border. This is like, okay, I guess we're not going to give $350 million to Ukraine anymore.
