For years, a global choir of right-wing politicians has sung the praises of Vladimir Putin. They looked up to the Russian strongman as a defender of closed borders, Christian conservatism and bare-chested machismo in an era of liberal identity politics and Western globalization. Fawning over him was a core part of the populist playbook.

What a whopper of a LIE. Only leftist have supported and continue supporting putin
Sadly there are some Freepers who openly defended Putin as recently as a few weeks ago and said that he wouldn't really invade the Ukraine. They may be keeping a low profile right now out of embarrassment, but they are out there.
Russia Invades the U.S.
2016-2020 Full Energy independence plus exports - Trump/Pence
Putin’s fans fall in the camp of moral relativists regardless of their ideology.
I will bet you understand nothing about the Orthodox Church and its history.
“Only leftist have supported and continue supporting putin”
Oh there is a contingent here on FR. Not sure if they are still doing it that past two weeks, but they have made many posts.
I don’t care what happens between Russia and Ukraine. I just know I despise our leftists more than I can describe.
Listen brainless leftists: when conservatives complain that the Democrats are doing far more more to trash the USA than Putin ever did, they are not making Putin a “fan.”
On that we can all agree upon.
Correct. “Tell Vlad we can do the hot tub together after the election” was one of theirs, not ours.
The left ALWAYS accuses you of what they are doing.
The Democrats hate Putin.
We hate the Democrats.
The enemy of my enemy must be my friend.
It was faulty logic. Now we know better
Maybe this guy would get a clue that they were the cause.....the woke cancel culture drives a search for the opposite
Putin is not our friend, he is a thug and always has been, but he is by no means our biggest threat. That would be China.
Hell yes….I prefer Putin over bammy and biden…however I don’t agree or support his invasion of Ukraine…
I am against conflating A) Putin’s stupid and destructive actions with B) the Russian people.
There are millions of good Russian people and there is a lot of good in Russian culture.
Russia isn’t a collection of feral savages.
Russia is a country with very rich potential that is being taken in the wrong direction by a very poor leader.

Where is the written evidence (provided by the EU and IMF) the prosecutor was corrupt?
Where is the written evidence (in testimony provided under oath before Congress) the prosecutor was corrupt?
When has Schiff provided this evidence?
Sorry but I have no moral champion in this fight, just sitting on the sidelines hoping the Libtard’s don’t blow up the world.
Good points!
