Anderson Cooper Defends Zelensky: ‘What Is Incredible Is the POTUS Is Now Echoing Talking Points that Putin Has Pushed’

EXCERPT:

COOPER: “As for calling Zelenskyy a dictator for not holding elections, well, Britain‘s Winston Churchill didn‘t hold elections during the Second World War. And by the way, when the war was over and he was voted out of office, he did not try to overturn the outcome. As for Vladimir Putin, he‘s held elections, but they are a foregone conclusion. Here‘s a headline after his last one: 'Putin extends his rule after predetermined vote.' Indeed. What is incredible is that President Trump, the president of the United States, is now echoing talking points that Vladimir Putin has pushed repeatedly. Putin has called Zelenskyy‘s presidency illegitimate and said he should hold elections."
