This is great (emphasis mine):
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy shut down a Newsmax interviewer [Newsmax anchor Rob Schmitt] who prompted him to say that there would be no war in Ukraine if former President Donald Trump were still US president.
“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?”
He said: “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,” he said.
And that is how it is done.
It is us who owe so much to Zelensky for not playing along with TFG’s scheme to taint Biden.

Heh. Historically speaking, the answer to that stupid question will most definitely outlive Newsmax.

THIS (!!!) is why folks shouldn’t be offended when seeing a decent person being interviewed by a scumbag entity -because it’s a straight-pipe to lie-damaged ears and minds. Viva Zelensky!

Zelenskyy earned his ‘thinking on his feet’ chops as a comedian. I just finished the entire 50+ episodes in three seasons of “Servant of the People” on Netflix, and I recommend it highly.
