“Trump is someone who believes: fill the moat, pull up the drawbridge,” he added.

Mr. Zero Percenter is beloved by the fascist corporate media and anti-MAGA forces everywhere ... after all, he speaks for the great majority of conservatives according to them, even if he does poll at zero percent ...

Well, Putin is striving for being Trump in Russia. He is taking down the woke deep state in his country, and having a go at the DSC in Ukraine.

I’ll take Putin’s income tax policy any day ... “Income tax rates in Russia. As of January 2021, tax residents pay a 13% tax rate on an annual income of up to 5 million p. Income above this limit is subject to 15% taxes. Meanwhile, Russian-sourced income is taxed at 30% for non-residents.”

“I’ll take Putin’s income tax policy any day”

And there’s more. Aside from the 25 year old videos that the Operatives here post, try finding homeless in Russia TODAY or in the past decade.
