No Ludmilla, I am still resident here. Other dachas with young gymnast girlfriends not count in official census!"

LMAO, I think of him every time I see that DirecTV commercial.
“Opulence. I has it.”

This is staged, Putin is known to decorate expensively.
The Moscow hotels are better furnished, and so are the apartments of all his friends.
We won't even get into what the average Dacha has.

If anyone doesn’t think such a picture isn’t staged, well, I just can’t help you...

Putin lives austerely, eats sparingly, keeps himself in shape. Historically, that’s a key to survival in power in Russia. Peter the Great, anyone? This is no show, IMO.
The vanished Imperial aristocracy observed no such rules, and they died for it by the tens of thousands if they weren’t lucky enough to be able to flee from the murdering Bolsheviks.

Nothing wrong with simplicity and frugality.

I think this is bogus. I’ve seen other pictures of him (with his dog) in his “palace” which is rich with baroque furniture and an elaborate staircase. And is this his WIFE? I thought he divorced his wife a year ago and he was carrying on an affair with a gymnast much younger than he and much slimmer than this Lyudmila.
To: lbryce
Surprised that his wife is a woman.
To: lbryce
This could be a small room in the house....TV looks like it’s made in Russia....along with the clothes on their backs...The dog is also not real....

I still can’t get over the fact that they match the couch perfectly. Can you imagine a pic like that of Obama and Michelle being released? Can you imagine the scenario even existing where they’d both be wearing taupe while sitting on a $400 taupe sofa? It boggles the imagination.

The black labrador is wonderful. The others, not so much.

He would not be the first nor the last man focused on power who had a taste for austerity. The luxuries and pleasures they crave are more abstract. Putin's been good for Russia - maybe that's what matters to him...

Only thing missing is the obligatory oil painting over the couch of DOGS PLAYING POKER...

Yeah, I know it's not funny. It's the best I could come up with, besides "Putin isn't a natural leader, but he did stay at a Holiday Inn last night."
