Watch: Biden in 2001 Praises Putin for Embracing the West, Compares Him to Peter the Great
Breitbart ^ | 02/23/2022 | Wendell Husebo

A video unearthed from 2001 by the Republican National Committee’s research team revealed then-Senator Biden praising Russian President Vladimir Putin for embracing the West, heralding his actions as comparable to Peter the Great.

“I’m close to amazed by how far Putin seems to have come in making – throwing – his lot in with the West,” Biden said as chairman of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee. “He seems to have – out of all the briefings I’ve gotten – actually stiff-armed his military and stiff-armed some of the browns and reds in his government and out of government.”

We love insulting him but he is the POTUS while Trump is pushing a social media site.

Name calling is fun.

It doesn’t change the truth.

He’s in charge. Fried or not.

And I know a number of people with dementia and have known a number of people with dementia.

you’d be surprised what they remember.

he remembers.

you people act like he wasn’t an ass and weird before all this

Also, hope you are well :)

Biden has been a fraud for a long time.

Unaccountability in the cloistered Senate didn’t help a dishonest egomaniac.

Biden made up stories and the Press reported them as facts.

He’s still trying to embrace the west, but it’s the west of Ukraine

There is no doubt Putin is a thug who doesn't hesitate to "deal with" political enemies and who enriches himself via his power, but under his regime the average person is probably freer and safer than in the Soviet days, although Russian society still has - to Western sensibilities - a kind of militarized quality.

But the overt persecution of the Orthodox Church has stopped, and Putin seems to be embracing the idea of Russia being a Christian civilization in opposition to the decadent civilization of the West.

We can question his sincerity, of course, but as time goes by and our society becomes more overtly hostile to Chrisan values it is not as easy to contrast our freedoms with Russian totalitarianism as it once was.

It is especially sad for someone with dementia who had lied their whole life. Is anything they remember a lie or the truth?

Biden used to be so bad he had to plagiarize everyone else. Now he’s so much worse he can’t even plagiarize himself.

Could be, but Trump literally called Putin “a genius” for doing this yesterday so what are we to believe.

The Bidens have made Billions off similar deals.

And you know Vindman and others like him get those friendly payments.

They call it Compromised.

But Putin visited Bush’s ranch in Texas while Bush was President and Bush said positive things about Putin too.
