>>>>>>>>>>>>>

Lets not forget that Trump was elected in 2016 and Zelensky was elected in 2019...

Also, some interesting facts:

The irony here is that Zelensky is actually a true right winger. He was elected in a landslide (73%) and is both loved and hated for the same reasons Trump was elected and is loved and hated for.

Zelensky it the Ukrainian version of Trump. No wonder many dislike him.

Trump and Zelensky were elected to combat corruption and the deep-state in respective countries. Trump and zelskly have hit hard on corruption. Zelinsky though has succeeded in imprisoning scores of corrupted people working for the State.

Other similarities Trump/Zelensky:

Outsider Status: Both Trump and Zelensky portrayed themselves as political outsiders during their respective campaigns. Trump, a businessman, and Zelensky, a comedian, ran for office without prior political experience.

Populist Appeal: Both leaders appealed to populist sentiments, addressing the concerns of everyday citizens and positioning themselves as champions of the “common people.”

Use of Social Media: Trump and Zelensky have effectively used social media platforms, particularly Twitter, to communicate directly with their supporters and the general public, often making controversial statements and policy announcements.

Anti-Establishment Stance: They both presented themselves as disruptors of the political establishment, promising to “drain the swamp” (Trump’s phrase) or fight against corruption (Zelensky’s promise).

Strong Rhetoric: Both leaders are known for their blunt and sometimes confrontational rhetoric, often challenging political opponents and critics publicly.

Media Attention: Trump and Zelensky received extensive media coverage, with their actions and statements frequently making headlines both nationally and internationally.

Celebrity Status: Prior to entering politics, both Trump and Zelensky were well-known public figures in their respective fields—Trump as a real estate magnate and reality TV star, and Zelensky as a comedian and television personality.

Electoral Victories: Both won their respective presidential elections as political outsiders, with Trump securing the U.S. presidency in 2016 and Zelensky winning the Ukrainian presidency in 2019.

Polarizing Figures: Trump and Zelensky have divided public opinion, with strong support from their respective bases and significant opposition from critics who question their qualifications and policies.

Unconventional Leadership Styles: They have exhibited unconventional leadership styles, often bypassing traditional diplomatic protocols and taking unorthodox approaches to governance.
