Ukraine is holding a final election today between the incumbent president, Petro Poroshensko and a comedian and political novice, Volodmyr Zelensky.
Zelensky isn’t a complete unknown to voters in the economically stagnate former soviet republic, he plays the president of Ukraine on television and he’s leading in the polls. More
UPDATE: It appears to be a landslide for Zelensky, winning a 75% to Poroshensko’s 25%. More
“… May Elect A Comedian For President
We did that one better already. We elected a JOKE as President back in ’08, even if it WAS a black joke filled with dark humor…
“I’ve never actually been president, but I played him on TV.”
Interesting.
We had a president that played the entire country.
Obama was inadvertently a pathetic clown, and a malignant one. And he was a traitor, and a happy one.
I’ll take the patriotic comedian anyday.
Obama didnt play sh*t. He was just an organ grinder monkey.
Comedian Won !!!!!!
Cue up the laugh track in the Kremlin.
Yakov Smirnoff unavailable for comment…what a country!
Nice. Here’s hoping he’s not an A-hole.
Let’s hope he’s wise and doesn’t let power go to his head, like a certain bus driver I won’t mention.
Ukraine’s been suffering since when? The 1200s?
After the Holodomor and Khrushchev maybe they’re due for a few laughs.
