Actor Mark Hamill sided with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky following his Oval Office meeting with President Donald Trump. The Star Wars superstar called Trump and Vice President JD Vance ‘a disgrace to our country.’
“The Prez & VP are shameful, embarrassing Putin puppets & a disgrace to our country,” the actor wrote in a social media post.
“HERO vs ZERO,” Hamill wrote in another post that displayed Zelensky as a hero and President Trump as a zero.
“I’m in a state of shock & still trying to process yesterday’s shameful, traitorous debacle in the WH: A DAY THAT WILL LIVE IN INFAMY,” Hamill wrote. “Our standing in the world has plummeted overnight, but the repercussions will be felt forevermore,” he added.
Hamill defending Zelensky and attacking his own country’s president came just as Ukrainian lawmakers lambasted Zelensky for engaging in “absolute idiocy” at the White House.
“Zelensky has put millions of people at risk, and it’s madness,” said Oleksiy Goncharenko, a member of the Verkhovna Rada parliament in Kyiv.
Indeed, several ranking officials, including NATO Secretary General Mark Rutte, Polish Defence Secretary Wladyslaw Kosiniak-Kamysz, and longtime Zelensky defender Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-SC), all urged the Ukrainian president to repair his ruptured relationship with President Trump.
