Still 10x the man that donny trump will ever be. Give Zelensky the Nobel Peace Prize for putting up with the convicted-felon-in-chief, and his unindicted co-conspirators.
Like the over the top sycophancy of congress when Benny boy spoke (more than once). Hanging on his every word and then rapturous applause ringing out! Don’t forget the dry cleaning he brings with him to be done.
***If there is a lesson in all of this it is that our Constitution is neither a self-actuating nor a self-correcting document. It requires the constant attention and devotion of all citizens. There is a story, often told, that upon exiting the Constitutional Convention Benjamin Franklin was approached by a group of citizens asking what sort of government the delegates had created. His answer was: A republic, if you can keep it. The brevity of that response should not cause us to under-value its essential meaning: democratic republics are not merely founded upon the consent of the people, they are also absolutely dependent upon the active and informed involvement of the people for their continued good health.*** National Constitution Center [https://constitutioncenter.org/education/classroom-resource-library/classroom/perspectives-on-the-constitution-a-republic-if-you-can-keep-it](https://constitutioncenter.org/education/classroom-resource-library/classroom/perspectives-on-the-constitution-a-republic-if-you-can-keep-it)
