Opinion: President Trump's missed opportunity with Ukraine (via latimesopinion)
The House of Representatives is moving inexorably toward impeaching President Trump for what he has said and done in his dealings with Ukraine. But what the presidentdone or said is almost as appalling, revealing a president who cares only about his personal interests, not America’s interests.
A normal president would have discussed all of these topics during the now-infamous July 25 call with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky. But President Trump did not bring up a single one of them. Trump did not discuss what next steps the United States and Ukraine could take together to settle the conflict with Russia. He did not mention how the United States could best help Ukraine defend itself.
President Trump ignored whatever talking points on American interests in Ukraine his staff prepared for him. His message was loud and clear. The president of the United States could not care less about Ukraine and its problems. He is interestedThis message abandons any pretense of U.S. leadership in the world, any idea that the United States stands for something beyond the power-lust of its president. It is not America First, it is America Alone, America the boorish, amoral and uncaring.
