You can bring in the candidates now. Vlod and Vlad have come through this process with a lot of casualties on both sides. Vlad, you called it ‘special military operations’ just before you launched a full scale invasion of Ukraine. Vlod, you have refused to wear a suit or capitulate. I find it hard to choose who did what to whom, so I’m just going to side with the dictator who still uses KGB tactics to silence any opposition… permanently.
Vlod, why do you think you should be my apprentice?
Well, Mr President, I have withstood the Russian onslaught for three years and I will fight until we have guarantees that no further aggression will be tolerated.
Vlad, the same question to you. What makes you the best candidate?
Mr President, you and I are cut from the same cloth – Teflon. Whatever shit they throw at us , nothing sticks. If you make me your apprentice, I will run rings around you and continue to threaten small nations with invasion.
I have made my decision and Vlad is the winner!
