I don't think I'd consider that a mistake. Not that it matters to everyone but it's one more asshole thing to know Trump did, which was only publicized because Zelenskyy respectfully asked for his turn to speak. Other leaders are likely to have taken note of that: Trump isn't even pretending that you're equals.
To some common folk, it will make Zelenskyy look weak but also consider this exact thread in which people say his calm demeanor makes him look strong. I'd wager Zelenskyy is interested in impressing the latter folk and not interested in impressing the former.
- ttyprintk 2y agoThere’s a short list of people Trump is afraid to let speak.
- sjsdaiuasgdia 2y agoIt did get Trump and Vance to show their asses, that's for sure.
- hysan 2y agoYup, I’d wager that given how the meeting had gone thus far, he made the strategic decision to specifically do this. He knew that this would be spun in whatever way Trump wanted, so it was better to win another point with the group that is smart enough to look past the talking points that Trump is going to push onto the media.

- captainkrtek 2y agoWell put. Idiots respect a man that yells and see it as power/strength, smart people recognize the person who is calm in face of that.

- koolba 2y ago> Other leaders are likely to have taken note of that: Trump isn't even pretending that you're equals. They’re not equals and to pretend otherwise is delusional. One is the leader of the most powerful country on earth. The other is broke and soon to be defenseless.
- kragen 2y agoTrump definitely came off as a zhlub in my eyes.
