Remind me once again why we are supposed to hate Putin?
I watched Putin’s recent press conference in Germany with Merkel. Two things jumped out
When asked about the USA’s bungled withdrawal in Afghanistan, he said something to the effect: “We ourselves know all about war in Afghanistan, and emphasizing the US failure does not serve our interests”
When asked about leftist/woke western culture he said: “We merely seek to make Russia a stable and predictable society. Russia has had enough of revolutions in the 20th century, and we have no interest in that.”
I’ve been following him since they accused Trump of “colluding with Russia,” and he’s never said anything objectionable to me as an American. If he’s an enemy of the USA, he’s the coolest and most rational one ever.
