Putin Defends January 6 Capitol Rioters, Praises Trump | MSNBC
The GQP with one voice: Hail to our dear friend Wladimir Putin!
@Muddy Water Don’t start giving the Lefties any facts you will get called racist …stick to the MSNBC narrative …. The sun is a lollipop and the moon is in fact made of cheese at the end of the flat earth …
@Rick Threat … the word racist has become a tool of the left to shut down people they disagree with… the word no longer has an effect on me.
Muddy Water – Trump’s son, son-in-law, and campaign chairman met with surrogates of the Russian government to trade “dirt” on Clinton for sanction relief.
Then, they lied about it.
USA Dominates – Know why they believe that? Because of confirmation bias. I guess you haven’t noticed all of those journalists asking overly tough questions in an attempt to appear unbiased.
Maybe the last president shouldn’t have called them the Stalin-coined term, “enemy of the people.”
@J Groovy … and Hillary Clinton/Obama used the steel dossier to spy on a Presidential candidate….so what’s your point?
This tell you all you need to know who was behind trumps rise to power.
@Vince Barker lol you love living in non reality don’t you.
@A T what?….omfg.
@A T – Moron – or Russian bot – which is it?
Lmao u need help
Stop trying to make Trump sound like a Hitler, you daft eejit.
However, Putin the dwarf tortures and imprisons his political opponents.
He’s so ethical. He doesn’t assassinate commoners. Give that man the Nobel Peace Prize.
Titanium is Magical – With rare, radioactive isotopes so that everyone knows he did it. Straight-up gangster.
I’m thinking that Trump would also have if he had been able to. Remember all those calls of lock her up?
Brian Jones – That apostrophe.
@USA Dominates – Trump took credit for the economy Obama left him. Trumpers are blaming Biden for conditions Trump left him. Ridiculous things like the state of the economy in the first few weeks. In addition, they lie about it. There are no open borders. A lot of things can be traced to the pandemic, and we still don’t know the full effect of it. Trump sure seemed to think that somehow because it was a pandemic, he’s blameless for everything. Oh, but not Joe Biden. Never mind what the pandemic did to the transportation industry, to them, Biden caused gas prices to spike on his third day! Yes, gas prices will rise a bit in ways for which Biden’s policies will be to blame. I’m sure the price of horses went up after the car was invented, too.
And thats all we need to know about Russia and Putin, though I am certain that the GOP and MAGA are thrilled. Moscow Mitch must be grinning ear-to-ear.
Did you see that on Mitch geezer he needs to wipe that off his face
@Daniel Hawthorn spoken like a true democrat- where’s the proof? Oh, an anonymous source.
Whats MAGA ?
@Rick Threat asks the week old baby troll… made enough kopeks to buy a turnip for dinner, yet?
MSNBC exposed themselves as propaganda whores for the democrats with their earlier clip of the interview, which has probably been pulled but not before thousands viewed it and noted the same outrageous manipulation. Somewhere there is a lawsuit waiting for MSNBC who blatantly lies to it viewers!
January 6 events were the consequences of Putin’s direct orders executed by his agent D.J. Trump (code name Dumb Orange).
Prove it.
@Reason We don’t have to, as many that were arrested have said that they were doing what the twice impeached, bad comb over former POTUS told them to do.
@Reason PROVEN dumbdumb 🤣
@Claude Grenier: It’s been proven that Putin ordered the storming of the US capital on Jan 6th? News to me.
I don’t know about that, but he did take some orders from Putin. Trump repeated Russian propaganda.
Of course he does, it was probably his idea.
Yes he would, wouldn’t he. One autocrat to his wannabe puddle autocrat.
Try doing Jan 6 style things in Russia. See how quickly you’ll be praised by Putin. 🤭😂😆😳🤣😭😂👏🤪
GOP: Guardians of Putin.
Listening to Putin opine on world politics is like listening to a lecture from Trump on dialectics and Linguistics…..makes as much sense as Bob Dylan in a wind tunnel
Of couse he does…this is the same guy that poisons his political opponents. 🙄
“Overturn the election results” and “Hang Mike Pence” are not political demands, but rather a call to insurrection and murder. Get real Vlad!
It’s just regular old Gaslighting.
@colleen nelson Just that you know, the definition of truth is the quality or state of being true. It doesn’t matter if the statement came from your friends or enemies.
@J Groovy Biden didn’t do much campaign trails, he just stayed home and took naps, and Democrats help him to steal the election by “Blotted Voter Rolls”, “Ballot Harvesting” and “Voting by non-citizens”.
@Matt Jackson Just that you know, the definition of truth is the quality or state of being true. It doesn’t matter if the statement came from your friends or enemies.
@Wigit Just that you know, the definition of truth is the quality or state of being true. It doesn’t matter if the statement came from your friends or enemies.
So Russia and the Republicans are on the same page. Donnie must be so proud.
Putin knows he would have eliminated every insurrectionists before the week’s end, no doubt.
If that were russia, those quackanon clowns would’ve never made it to the front door. But let him praise it, perhaps one day he’ll get his own dose.
Funny his perspective on American Politics.Considering he is an autocrat.
It is totally disgusting that the GOP gets excited about Putin praising Trump, Ronald Regan is turning over in his grave. Who cares what he thinks he is one of the foulest leaders in the world.
If it happened in Russia, he would have killed them.
yup, that part isn’t mentioned
What a ringing endorsement for the trump GOP! One tyrant supporting another’s coup attempt. Moral support between homies…
Because everyone is interested in the thoughts and opinions of a dictator who murders his political opponents and attacks the US, right?
He would let his angry people come in with open arms. Arms being bullets
