That while China and Russia have taken millions of their own citizens OUT OF poverty lately, the West has pushed millions of its own citizens into poverty, and millions of foreigners into poverty as well through war and sanctions.

Now you know the real reason Washington hates him.

I'm not anti-Western. I'm not even a socialist. I don't hold any political office. Putin's criticism of the West is spot on.

I don't support the CCP at all. I'm for even more tariffs and for totally decoupling our economy from China.

Right. He doesn't go for woke politics at all, which is great.

They've pulled it off in the United States with Biden. So they certainly think that they can pull it off elsewhere.

I don't think he's that much of a threat, but he will not go along with it. So they rail against him constantly.
