I see Russia in a different light now that a little light has been shined on our own government. Our federal government is every bit as bad as Russia’s.
I just looked at this guy the other day. You can do the same. The Wiki on Russia’s election lays it all out.
There are many candidates. Most from parties that have formed and nominated their candidate.
This guy is not even from a party. He’s an individual of zero support. The polls don’t show him at all.
Perhaps most important is all the other candidates who actually do have polling numbers indicating their popular support.
They are all, no exceptions, all angry at Putin’s moderate approach to Ukraine. They are outraged that he mobilized only 300,000 troops from a Reserves population of many millions.
This guy is completely off the Russia radar screen. No idea why anyone has decided to hype him.
