I mean, who was it that recently said that he alone (and, well, his AG, too, maybe) is the sole authority in interpreting law? It sure as hell wasn’t Zelensky…

I’ll consider them my “betters” when they can prove to me that their money and power is good for something other than the kind of villainy reserved for children’s cartoons.
