Not even Trump thinks Putin is trying to reform the Soviet Union. He’s pure nationalistic. He’s only concerned about the well being of Russia.
It’s not 1970 anymore and hasn’t been for over 50 years. Things do change, except with our propagandists.
Yeah, the mere fact that he has ignited the greatest conflict in Europe since the end of WWII... That he has invited nuclear NORTH KOREA to join in on the invasion... That he has been rocket-bombing civilian centers in Ukraine... That he has annexed vast swathes of territory...
All those FACTS mean nothing to you. Putin remains, for you, a "peacenik."
