Volodymyr Zelenskyy is EVERYTHING the civilian pukes in the White House wish they were: masculine, powerful and charismatic. They hate him because his presence reveals their cosplay.

If a 19-year-old Canadian who calls himself Big Balls marches into your federal agency and demands access to your system, telling him to fuck right off should be the mildest reaction you have.
