Putin rejects Trump's accusations against Biden

[crimycarny]

Did anyone see this? I apologize if already posted but I never saw any news about this (happened last Sunday). Not that I care what Putin thinks but Trump surely does. Sounds like Putin sees the writing on the wall and believes Trump will lose. For once in my life I hope Putin is right.

1. GOP are traitors, the fact that any real American would care or put stock in anything

this fascist dictator, killer would say...

fucking sigh

But because of the GOP now siding with Russia over America, it is a thing...

9. Are you speaking to me?

I care what Putin says because I believe strongly he is interfering in our election and will continue to do so.

I posted this article not because I give a rat’s ass what Putin thinks or doesn’t think about Hunter Biden. I don’t believe a word that comes out of Putin’s mouth. But I do believe Putin has motives in everything he does and my point of posting the article is it seems that Putin realizes he might be betting on the wrong horse. Perhaps he realizes that no amount of disinformation or even hacking of our computers is going to be able to sway the election this time around. So he’s basically hedging his bets. That’s my take anyway.

10. No.

That wasn’t my point, sorry if I left that impression

Of course we have to be aware of and worry about what this fascist murderous traitor Putin does and says, the point is Republican party works side-by-side with him and that’s the only reason he’s such a big part of our election process.

Putin would try to interfere regardless, but with the direct help of the republican party it’s an even bigger problem obviously

[crimycarny]

18. Yes...the GOP has definitely enabled Putin's interference

More likely Putin is merely trying to distance himself from the fact that the Hunter Biden info was all a part of a Russian disinformation campaign. If he publicly states he sees no criminal activity in Hunter Biden’s actions then how could anyone say he is behind those accusations in the first place?

The more I think about it that’s the more likely scenario. His disinformation campaign against Hunter Biden was a dud so now he is doing damage control.

19. Hadnt thought of that, makes sense.

Imagine the problems we could solve if the entire nation didnt have to daily deal with the dumbest most corrupt human alive.

2. He's apparently betting on Biden

to win.

3. Trump has always been an expendable tool

and Putin has realized that the tool has now reached the end of its usable lifespan. May be yet one more reason why Trump is in full-blown panic mode.

Care for a Big Mac with polonium sauce, Mr. President?

4. Don't get the cart ahead of the Horse.

Russian Disinformation is playing out in real time. Orwell explained "double speak" and the Ministry of Truth. They are not,the GRU,going to close the book on their Asset,not yet anyway. Still have eight days in order to accomplish their goals. Understanding the Greedy Mind of Trump,money will buy a certain amount of protection for himself for a certain amount of time.

6. No one is getting the cart ahead of the horse

Merely posting an article asking if anyone had seen it.

Tiresome that we can’t seem to post ANYTHING without being told “this isn’t over yet!” “Vote like we’re behind!” “Don’t take anything for granted”.

11. Agree! Putin also said maybe could work out an arms deal with Biden and

He thought maybe it was time for America and Russia to stop meddling in each other’s elections.

There’s always the naysayers. Thx for looking at the positive side

[MizLibby]

8. Please Stop

5. Don't trust putin or putin's puppet. Could just be a distraction from criminal activity related

to the election.

7. He could be trying to send signal to "undecideds" that he was never colluding with Trump

So they can say “see there, Putin is not on Trump’s side and it’s totally ok that I vote for him.” Putin never tells the truth except when it’s useful to his otherwise crooked plans.

[Thekaspervote]

12. Or, as the OP said, he could be sending a message to Biden

[MaryMagdaline]

14. Yep. He knows Biden's a forgiving type guy. Not this time I hope.

[AnotherMother4Peace]

13. That's what I was thinking. He's trump's puppeteer.

[crimycarny]

15. Exactly

Putin only says what is useful to him. I don’t think he would trust Americans to be smart enough to take away from his statement that it’s ok to vote for Trump since Putin isn’t supporting (publicly) Trump’s main accusation against Biden. Since Trump himself has praised Putin at the same time trying to make Hunter Biden be a “thing”, it comes off as Trump looking the fool. So I don’t see how independents, or anyone, would read that statement and think “Putin thinks Trump’s crusade against Hunter Biden is idiotic too. Wow, I guess I’ll vote for Trump now!”

That’s just my take.

Putin has his own mess on his hands with COVID and civil unrest. He can’t afford to bet on a losing horse so has shifted his stance merely out of political expediency.

[MaryMagdaline]

16. I love your explanation. It makes a lot of sense.

Making Trump look like a fool is a good thing.
Also, in my analysis I took it for granted that the Trump voter was pro-American. I forgot how they worship Putin. Putin turning against trump may be too humiliating for Trumpsters. Thanks again for good thinking

17. Putin is a lot of things, but the main thing he is is pragmatic.

He figures Trump is going to lose so he is hedging his bet a bit. If Trump should somehow win, he will still be in Putin's backpocket. Putin does things, like Trump, in his best interest. But, he also has strong feelings for Russia and her future. Unlike Trump and the US.
