🇺🇦🧵 Did you know how Zelensky became president? 1) Zelensky didn’t win with political skills. A TV series and a cunning oligarch catapulted him to power. Wild, huh? Thread below spills the insane details!
2) Ever wonder how a comedian became Ukraine’s president? It wasn’t talent in politics! It was a genius TV plot. Here’s how it unfolded… 👇
3) Imagine a world where a TV star steps out of a fictional role and into the real life presidency of a nation. This isn’t a far fetched fantasy, it’s the astonishing story of how Volodymyr Zelensky became the President of Ukraine, thanks to a brilliantly unconventional strategy
4) Before he ever dreamed of leading Ukraine, Zelensky was a celebrated comedian and actor, a household name in his country. His career took a pivotal turn when Ihor Kolomoyskyi, a powerful Ukrainian businessman and media mogul, had a stroke of genius. Kolomoyskyi cast Zelensky
5) Here’s where the brilliance kicks in: Kolomoyskyi didn’t stop at making Zelensky a TV star. He saw an opportunity to blur the lines between fiction and reality. A political party named Servant of the People (the same as the series) was established, and in 2019, Zelensky was
6) Zelensky’s run for president was anything but conventional. He leaned on his celebrity status, using social media and his comedic charm to connect with voters. His lack of political experience wasn’t a flaw, it was his strength. He positioned himself as an outsider, free from
7) What makes this story so crazy and smart is how effortlessly it sidestepped the traditional rules of politics. Zelensky’s election wasn’t built on years of grassroots organizing or policy white papers; it was built on a TV series. Kolomoyskyi’s gambit turned a fictional
8) This wasn’t just a fluke; it was a calculated triumph of storytelling. The series had already done the heavy lifting, shaping Zelensky as the everyman hero Ukraine craved. Add a party with the same name, a wave of public frustration with the old guard, and a dash of media
9) Zelensky’s presidency didn’t end in applause. His refusal to seek peace (one of his election promises) wrecked Ukraine hundreds of thousands dead, cities in ruins, and territory lost. He should’ve stuck to comedy; as president, he turned a nation into a tragedy. - End of
@kochhardy @pim0605a Yeah he achieved ..... destroying his country and killing over a million Ukrainian men for .... The geopolitical goals of the U.S. Democrats

@TaranQ So what you mean to say is that he was elected democraticaly and had the backing of a billionaire? Like Trump? And was Trump anything more than a billionaire and a TV personality before he came to power?
@TaranQ He was groomed for it.
@TaranQ What if the TV series was a USAID/NED sponsored grooming of him for the role while brainwashing the plebs? 🤨
@TaranQ Same Oligarch who stole billions from a Ukraine bank. What it shows is how easily misled much of Ukraine's population sadly are. It's been known about for some time. Back when the BBC covered this fairly they did a news night report on it. It can still be seen on YT.
@TaranQ Yeah we Slavic people know , read more about his investor Kolimiiskiy
@TaranQ En dit is democratie 🤣🤣🤣
@TaranQ Update Zelensky's photos, please.
@TaranQ En aangestuurd door de EU, de USA en de Navo Die wilden een marionet daar hebben
@TaranQ That probably explains why he's such an atypical president.
@TaranQ @RoxanneStyx Ta.
@TaranQ This TV series was made in Hollywood.
@TaranQ Draadje 👆👆
@TaranQ @georgevanhouts Essential read from John Helmer, the longest continuously serving foreign correspondent in Russia. The Kolomoisky Pyramid started with Hillary Clinton and Victoria Nuland of the State Department plus Christine Lagarde of the IMF. http://johnhelmer.net/the-kolo...
@TaranQ strategic value to the state in light of the Russian invasion were nationalised. These included Ukraine's largest gasoline companies. In 2023, Kolomoyskyi was arrested by the Security Service of Ukraine (SBU) on charges of money laundering and fraud, and placed
@TaranQ Not so much a friend 😉Between 2014 and 2016, Kolomoyskyi served as Governor of Dnipropetrovsk Oblast until his dismissal by President Petro Poroshenko. That year, his undercapitalised bank was declared a threat to Ukraine's financial security and taken into state ownership.
@TaranQ In 2019, Kolomoyskyi's media power and funding supported Volodymyr Zelenskyy's successful presidential campaign to unseat Poroshenko. In 2020, he was indicted in the United States on charges related to large-scale bank fraud. In 2021, the U.S. banned Kolomoyskyi and his family
@TaranQ from entering the country, accusing him of corruption and being a threat to the Ukrainian public's faith in democratic institutions. Zelenskyy reportedly stripped Kolomoyskyi of his Ukrainian citizenship in 2022. Later that same year, those of Kolomoyskyi's assets deemed to be of
@TaranQ under pre-trial arrest.
@TaranQ Jeepers, and somehow got stuck with a shite drama teacher in cda. F Ed up
@TaranQ Zelensky was a clown 🤡 before he’s still a clown 🤡 today. Sadly for him Trump is a bigger clown 🤡 and so is J D Vance another clown 🤡. America is the land of clowns 🤡 🤡 🤡 🤡 🤡 🤡🤡 🤡 🤡 🤡 🤡 🤡 🤡 🤡 🤡 🤡 🤡 🤡
@TaranQ Whole Sluga Narodu series was basically Kolomoysky's presidential campaign for little piano playing coke loving comedian. And it was brilliantly planned and executed.
