[PJMedia.com] Well, folks, it looks like the American public's love affair with Ukraine's President Volodymyr Zelenskyy is officially over. After Friday's explosive Oval Office showdown between Zelenskyy, President Trump, and JD Vance, pollster Frank Luntz decided to take the public's temperature with some polls on X. The results?

Luntz released his findings on Saturday, and while they're admittedly unscientific, they provide a fascinating glimpse into how dramatically public opinion has shifted on the Ukraine conflict.

Luntz's analysis was blunt: "The United States isn't changing... It has changed."

Remember when Zelenskyy was hailed as an heroic figure fighting for democracy against Russian aggression? Those days are apparently over.

As Luntz noted, "Three years ago, Americans were overwhelmingly supportive of Ukraine and they considered Zelensky to be a global hero. Today, a majority of Americans oppose the war and Zelensky is now a controversial character."
