Tim compares Zelenskyy's media pivot to George W. Bush's turkey photo-op in Iraq, arguing modern leaders never actually risk their lives, just stage photo ops.
- Tim recalls George W. Bush's Thanksgiving turkey visit to Iraq troops, describing it as a modern leader's photo op before sending soldiers to their deaths.
- Modern leaders no longer go down with the ship — they visit battlefields in staged appearances while troops stay on the frontlines.
- Nobody cares about the Ukraine war anymore, but it's still happening.
- The Russians are willing to stay in Ukraine for a century, making any short-term strategic calculations irrelevant.
