Take a step back, evaluate what went wrong, and recalibrate. Trump wants public praise\u2014find a way to deliver it without looking weak. It\u2019s not too late.<\/p>\n\n\n\n 2\/ Speak to U.S. right-wing and alternative media. Vogue covers may be prestigious abroad, but they hold little weight in the U.S. political landscape. Zelenskyy needs to engage the media that influences Trump\u2019s base.<\/p>\n\n\n\n 3\/ Engage Turkey.

A major chunk of MAGA world believes Zelenskyy is a tool of the left. Ignoring this won\u2019t make it go away\u2014it needs to be confronted head-on.<\/p>\n\n\n\n 5\/ Enforce total transparency on aid. Every press release should include hard numbers. Americans are skeptical of where their money is going, and the only way to win trust is with relentless transparency.<\/p>\n\n\n\n This is salvageable, but only if Zelenskyy stops playing the game on his advisors\u2019 terms and starts playing it on America\u2019s.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
