Russian puppet spouts Russian propaganda, more at 11
Breaking News! Shocking revelation that world renowned dunce doesn't know something
There's no way he's not on the Kremlin payroll one way or the other at this point.
It really is depressing how stupid this man is, and how he is in the position he is.
...what a turd.
Vlad was hoping Trump would get re-elected, and further isolate Ukraine from Western support. When Trump lost to Biden, Putin rolled the dice with his failed headshot attempt.
Now he's moved on from relying on Trump, to relying on various congresspeople to deteriorate US support for Ukraine.

She also said she had spoken to European leaders at the Munich security conference, finding them nervously preparing for a possible second Trump administration.
