Opinion - The real reason Trump hates Zelensky
Whos afraid of Volodymyr Zelensky? Donald Trump and the Republican Party, thats who. So much so that they have insulted and demonized the diminutive Ukrainian president as if he were the embodiment of evil.
Viktor Orbán, Hungarys authoritarian prime minister, cavorts with Trump in Mar-a-Lago and no eyebrows are raised. Vladimir Putin routinely kills his opponents and tries to interfere with American elections, and Republican outrage is at best muted.
But poor Zelensky visits an ammunitions plant in Pennsylvania, and he and Oksana Markarova, the Ukrainian ambassador to Washington, are attacked for interfering in Americas elections.

Trumps rhetoric makes clear that he feels threatened by Zelensky, whom he has called the greatest salesman in history. Every time he comes into the country, he walks away with 60 billion dollars.
