    They played a clip while I’m waiting for the press conference, and honestly?

    This one wasn’t that bad.

    He realized it almost immediately, and came up with a rebound. It wasn’t a good recovery, but it’s better than him just wandering off after it.

    If it was a normal candidate we’d laugh about this one, and there’s a lot more important things going on.

    Quick edit:

    That being said I could have sworn this was supposed to start at 6:30, I don’t know if the Putin comment has changed anything, but he’s not coming out so far.

      In isolation it’s definitely any oopsie. But it’s quite poor timing given that there’s been a lot of attention on him for this type of thing recently.

      Also I’m sure Zelenskyy couldn’t name a single person he’d be more mad to be confused with.
