Ukraine already won the propaganda wars - at least, enough to convince those who needed little convincing.
As far as PrezZ being a former actor, like Reagan…. I think it’s laughable to compare them. Reagan was an independent thinker, a great man. The problem with Z is that he’s still an actor, reading lines written by others. Extremists around him want him to do X; Biden and NATO insist on Y… so, Z is confused and torn. His life was a lot nicer when he was simply a successful actor and businessman.

Ps - as far as Russia's “overwhelming force” - the original invasion was about 150K troops, now up to 200 K

Ukraine - 500K, plus at guard, border troops - probably close to Ritter’s estimate of 600K.

Seems like the Ukrainian force was a lot larger. And… do defend it “normally” takes far fewer troops that to attack.
