Trump Compares Zelensky to Conman Barnum, Claims 25% of Ukraine Disappeared

U.S. President Donald Trump has compared Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky to the famous American showman and PR master P.T. Barnum.

“Zelensky is a great salesman. He is very much like Barnum. You know who Barnum is, right? One of the greatest in history. He could sell anything at any time. 'I can sell any product at any time.' And that was true. He said it didn't matter whether the product worked or not. The same goes for Zelensky; he made conman Joe Biden give him $350 billion. And look what that has led to; about 25% of his country has disappeared,” Trump stated in an interview with Politico.
