IS PRESIDENT ZELENSKYY A NAZI? NO! HERE IS THE PROOF (Part I) [EPISODE 212]
The Russian-Ukraine war has raged for 6 weeks now. I wrote a book on President Zelenskyy because I found him to be an intriguing leader. You can find it here on Amazon:
https://www.amazon.com/Need-Ammunition-Not-Ride-Volodymyr-ebook/dp/B09VVW3NSV/ref=sr_1_1?crid=6YHOEVZ983NQ&keywords=i+need+ammunition%2C+not+a+ride&qid=1647625321&s=digital-text&sprefix=%2Cdigital-text%2C4098&sr=1-1
Since I wrote the book, I now get emails and DMs that ask, “Don’t you know Zelenskyy is a Nazi?” or “Is Zelensky a Soros plant?” Or my personal favorite, “I saw this video where he was dancing in drag. He is a gay Satanist.”
I will address each of these in turn. In today’s episode, I will address the Nazi accusation.
I will address it on two levels: Personally and governmental.
