Anna wrote that US media would exceed themselves in attacking Donald Trump and supporting Volodymyr Zelensky. She claimed that Zelensky is more popular than ever in the US, while Trump’s approval ratings continue to decline. According to her assessment, nearly every second post on X is directed against Trump – even on Elon Musk's platform. As an example, Anna mentioned Ben Meiselas, a lawyer and co-founder of MeidasTouch. He had warned that Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent may have committed a crime in connection with a diesel deal and referred to "criminal behavior." Meiselas explained in a video the laws that Bessent allegedly violated. Trump’s immunity does not apply to the Treasury Secretary, Anna wrote. She described the development against Trump as an avalanche that he himself triggered. #Trump #Selenskyj #Medien (translated)
