The West will keep Zelensky long enough to do the unpopular stuff, then they’ll get rid of him. From Andrew Korybko at korybko.substack.com:

Zelensky’s only use right now is to legitimize radical policies and he’ll then be cast aside once he’s done what’s needed of him, though it’s unclear when that’ll be since everything depends on whether NATO conventionally intervenes in Ukraine.
President Putin shared his view during a press conference in Hanoi that the US will replace Zelensky during the first half of next year after they use him to make unpopular decisions such as further lowering the draft age. His prediction coincided with Russia’s foreign intelligence service publishing its latest such report about this scenario, which claimed that Zaluzhny is being seriously considered by the US as his replacement and is also deemed to be more suitable for negotiating peace with Moscow than others.
It was explained last month how “Russia Hopes To Influence Ukraine’s Possibly Impending US-Backed Regime Change Process” after that same service released a related report about this at the time. This strategy continues unfolding as evidenced by President Putin declaring two weeks ago that the Rada Speaker is now the legitimate leader of Ukraine if the Constitution is still being followed. Accordingly, he said that Russia could negotiate with him or someone else if Kiev is interested in peace, but not Zelensky.
As regards the conflict’s military-strategic dynamics, they continue trending in Russia’s favor and won’t be changed by minor adjustments to US policy such as letting Ukraine use its arms to hit any targets across the border that are allegedly planning to cross the frontier. The only variable that can make a meaningful difference at this point in time is if NATO stages a conventional intervention, but that would spike the risk of World War III by miscalculation.
That depends on who is (s)elected during the extra most bestest, most important, election evarz or just another Deep State snooze fest.
He is in the Saddam, Moammar, Tim Osman AKA Osama, TO was his Criminals In Action name, meme rotation with…to be continued.
You think maybe he has the goods on Jo Jo Brandon and dangles that leverage like a Don?
They say a Mafia Don had a photo of J. Edgar Hoover in his lacy bloomers and used it well.
I learned from Colonel Leroy F. Prouty (MR. X) that comrade LBJ lived right across the street from JEH in the district of criminals for years and they were Bros.
Loves me some learning new things even if they are old.
You just knew Ziolensky wouldn’t be doing the Spock Vulcan live long and prosper as he depopulates the 404.
As for the muh blue and yellow profile pic poseurs they get a 404 error can’t be found when you ask if they can point out The Ukraine on a map. (rimshot)
