Using the media to fight back.

He is now an international hero and Putin is going to be hard pressed to kill or jail him.

The first time he proved his character was when he rebuffed Trump’s shakedown over Hunter Biden.

Zelesky’s name is now synonymous with bravery and honor.

When the chips are down, just another one of the warriors. The Ukrainians are really stepping up to the plate giving us hero imagery. And that's not to minimize it -- like the guards of Snake Island, they are dying to make their mark. But unlike a lot of people in history, they are using their sacrifices very effectively in this media-driven world. The Ghost of Kyiv is already known around the world. And the fact that Russia hasn't managed to put them down yet is a major embarrassment. This wasn't supposed to be a fair fight, but it's looking more and more like a Rocky franchise. They just might pull it off, and even if they don't everyone will hate their conquerors.
