Footage was on his show first where he played President of Ukraine. He play a humble middle class man even though Zelenskyy has millions of US dollars in offshore bank accounts.
Footage then shown when he campaigned for president + in ads.
Edit: upset liberal in comment wants better source on wealth. Fine, source was only first google result not edited in last month to repeat state department misinfo campaign. Here is link to pandora papers on Zelenskyy:

Source liberals complaining about from before edit:
net worth is $596 Million US Dollars.
Zelenskyy is not a simple humble comedy businessman :picard:
Friend, we know that Zelensky has offshore accounts due to Pandora Papers, either to hide from the taxman, sneak out embezzlement money or both. We know he has real estate investements abroad. We know he was a figure propped up by Kolomoisky and that he has financial ties to Azov. Hell, we even know he has celebrated Stepan Bandera as a Ukranian historical figure. This is all very very damning stuff already, we don't need to rely on capricious estimates which may very well be propaganda to make our point here.
Fine fine, I drop source like I say and don’t care. Other estimates say 1.5 billion. State department claim only 1.5 million. If you agree Zelenskyy corrupt then fine. Liberals even on vk claim he is Obama of Ukraine (like that is good thing)
