What’s crazy to me is Putin had such an opportune chance to control the narrative and try to pull the far right to his side. He could have done this by speaking to anti-LGBTQ stuff or talk about traditional families. But instead he spent his time talking about a perverse Russian history that some how blames Poland for Hitler’s aggression.
Putin had a chance to control the narrative, but instead ranted on like a crazy old man. So win for the west, but what a strange story.
Unfortunately, I don’t think it matters what he spews. One-in-four Americans already have a positive view of Putin. I think he’s got the crazy demographic already locked down.
Putin cares infinitely more about Russian domestic opinion than American public opinion. He had a few good moments in there where he belittles Tucker that are going to be clipped and shared all over Russian media.
He started this off very quickly with calling Tucker a talk show host causing Tucker to laugh awkwardly amd nervously. Speaking of that, I was surprised at Tucker’s nervousness. I guess he felt the whole world was watching him or something and he choked a bit.
Not as easy to seem like you’re centered and wise when you’re not reading a script on your own TV show.

Please tell me that’s not actually true
I wish I could lie to you. To give you sweet, comforting fictions.
