Making time on Tuesday for an interview with low budget right wing propaganda channel Newsmax, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky was asked by host Rob Schmitt if he thought “that different American leadership, do you think that different Western leadership, may have prevented this aggression? There are many Americans that believe that if somebody like Donald Trump was still in the White House that this invasion would not have happened. What is your position?”

Rather than unholstering his pistol and putting a sucking wound in the middle of Schmitt’s chest like any normal human being in his situation would do when asked such a stupid fucking question, Zelensky responded calmly and diplomatically, saying “Well I believe what’s the most important is the assistance from the people of the United States. They are paying the taxes, and the money being allocated to support Ukraine comes from the taxes, and it’s all of that humanitarian, financial, military support to Ukraine. So I am grateful to the current president of the United States as well as to those in the political parties that support us. I am sorry if I’ll be saying something that you don’t like but for us as the country in war, it doesn’t matter whether its Democrats or Republicans. It’s the people of the United States that support us… I don’t know what would happen if the president, if Donald Trump would be the president of the United States for this situation.”
