Zelensky for the win:

[tblue37]

This morning in Ankara:

Trump: Would you go to Moscow?

Zelensky: It's difficult. There are a lot of Ukrainian drones there.

While all this Iran s$$$ has been going on, Ukraine has been kicking Russia's ass. They are on the verge of repossessing Crimea. They are in complete control of the Sea of Azov. He is strangling the Russian forces that are now stranded along the west bank of Azov and killing 30,000 a month, with very few Ukrainian casualties because they are being hit with drones.

And while that is happening, Ukraine is also hitting hard inside Russia, already taking 20% of their oil resources offline, and destroying important military assets frequently. Maybe it is too early to call it a rout, but Trump and Putin are surely s$$$ting bricks these days.

And practically none of this is being mentioned on the US MSM. You can be certain all the European leaders know the score, and that is why they are laughing when Trump says things like "The US was there for you. You are never here for the US." Well, this war *IS* and invasion of Europe and Trump allied with Putin. You can't get much worse than that as an "ally".

The Europeans can see that both Russia and the US are stuck in a different century militarily. Ukraine has the technologies that make the difference in today's warfare.

15. It does seem like Ukraine has pulled off a miracle

Like 3 days of temple oil lasting 14 days

[JoseBalow]

21. Was it over when the Germans bombed Pearl Harbor?

[PatSeg]

3. Oh snap!

Gotta love this guy!

[wnylib]

4. I heard that exchange. Zelenskyy got some good laughs from the audience.

He is such an Intelligent, creative, caring man with integrity and a solid moral compass. I wish that we had a president even half as good as Zelenskyy.

[dave99]

5. we would be very lucky to get a man half as good as Zelenskyy

but we can pray

[Bluetus]

8. Remember, he was a professional comedian before going into politics

Good somedians are among the smartest people.Their success depends on making these quick associations, and then framing in it the form of a punch line, all before the audience has a minute to think it through.

[littlemissmartypants]

13. And he has a law degree. Please don't forget that, too.

I love him with my whole heart.

We would be fortunate to have a president half as intelligent and compassionate as he is.

9. We had the chance to elect one.

Her name is Kamala Harris. While many of us did vote for her, it wasn't enough.

[wnylib]

10. Agree.

[calimary]

14. Yep.

[SWBTATTReg]

27. Even a person that's 10% of Z would be far better than tRUMP is.

I do worry about future elections, not that elections will NOT happen, but that we must be paranoid and put in many safeguards to make sure that we'll have never have another 'tRUMP' scenario again. NEVER! Have Congress write a new law, a new no-Trump law that can never be amended or ruled illegal.

6. You guys know hard it is to joke with someone in a foreign language?

Zelensky is very good with a snappy comeback in American English, meanwhile the American he's speaking to doesn't even get the joke.

[Nasruddin]

7. Remember he was a professional comic

[wnylib]

11. The American that he is speaking with doesn't even

get the language and it is his own.

[somsai]

16. From what I can tell Zelensky has aquired his ability in English since the Russian

invasion. At the beginning he was speaking none, then I remember some prepared speeches, and now he is simply speaking off the cuff, which is an amazing advantage. When you can speak directly to people you can break down the barriers of a translator. Both Putin and Xi speak through interpreters.

[Torchlight]

26. he won an education grant at age 16 based on his mastery of English

but his father had other plans for him.

[MustLoveBeagles]

17. I love him

He's everything our leader is not.

[fierywoman]

18. ... tune: ...

so who's got the cards now

[wolfie001]

19. Ha ha, fat-slob

[Bumbles]

20. He's brilliant in so any ways.

[GoodRaisin]

22. He's showing his "cards" to Krasnov.

[Aussie105]

23. The trap people set for themselves when they believe their own propaganda!

Putin: 'The takeover of Ukraine will take 4 days. The Russian liberators will be met with smiles and flowers.'

Trump . . . ditto, talking about Iran.

I swear, living in an ivory tower with people who always agree with you no matter what must do some real damage to the brain.

Shame other countries don't have leaders like Zelenskyy!

[Blue Owl]

24. Suck it, fat fuck
