No. Putin has "people" for that. I'm sure Donald has a "handler" in his entourage. Midnight Writer Mar 2022 #5

From my local todayt:


Vladimir Putin appears at huge flag-waving rally at Moscow stadium


Lviv/Kyiv: Vladimir Putin appeared at a huge flag-waving rally at a packed Moscow stadium and lavished praise on his troops fighting in Ukraine, three weeks into the invasion that has led to heavier-than-expected Russian losses on the battlefield and increasingly authoritarian rule at home.

.....snip

The Moscow rally was surrounded by suspicions it was a Kremlin-manufactured display of patriotism. Several Telegram channels critical of the Kremlin reported that students and employees of state institutions in a number of regions were ordered by their superiors to attend rallies and concerts marking the anniversary. Those reports could not be independently verified.

I always thought Putin was the ringleader, the dominant partner in the love affair with TFG but he's acting in a very Trumpian manner right now.

as we approach mid-terms. Think he will fail unless Putin decides to save Russia’s ass by withdrawing to Dombas region.

Putin has no use or time for Trump right now. He's served his purpose, and will be spit out like a gnat. Note that he specifically mentioned Miami in his speech earlier this week, from his perspactive halfway around the world, that's clse enough

Trump has no power.

He gets back in the WH, sure. He'll be happy to talk.
