His response: "they shouldve seen the first version"
A few random replies..
To the folks in the comments criticizing Zelenskyy for his humor or glibness just remember for 10 fucking years Putin has been bombing his country and people. I think he has earned the right to be a little human and exhibit human emotions. God knows we see Putin laughing and smiling while bombing innocent Ukrainians.

(879 posts)1. That letter was for Europe
Maybe China and India too.
Zelensky shows he wants peace, which further isolates Putin.

It wasn't rude as it simply stated hard facts in a relentless format. He summarized the situation and how it isn't going the way Putin thought when it started. It is a long read but a solid summery of the last 4.25 years.

WHY NOT? I'd love to see Al Franken, Jon Stewart, Stephen Colbert, Tina Fey or Amy Poehler as president. Look what Amy Poehler did for Pawnee, Indiana!

the same ones here who defended Garland and tried to act "oh so neutral" while slamming a lot of others?
