In interviews with Russian State television (Moscow's equivalent of Fux News), murderous thug and Trump manipulator Vladimir "Vlad the Invader" Putin said that, while he was "disappointed" in the U.S. political system, he had "no disappointment at all" in his primary U.S. asset, unindicted co-conspirator Donald "Rump" Trump. From the AP report:
“'I have no disappointment at all,' Putin said when asked about the U.S. president. “Moreover, on a personal level he made a very good impression on me.'We know how "balanced" unglued and unfit Rump is, and as far as "compromises," Vlad won't have to strain much: he has a willing co-conspirator who is adverse to applying sanctions on Moscow or countering their continuing attacks on our democratic system. If he thinks it benefits him personally, Rump will compromise this country away with Vlad grinning all the while.
The two leaders met on the sidelines of international summits last year. Putin praised Trump as a 'balanced' man, who easily gets into the gist of various issues and listens to his interlocutor.
'It’s possible to negotiate with him, to search for compromises,' Putin added." (emphasis added)
The AP story also recounts Vlad's social encounter with pathetic spouse Melania "Blink If You Need Help" Trump at the G20 summit last year:
"The Russian leader said he told her and the wife of the Italian premier 'about Siberia and Kamchatka, about fishing ... about bears on Kamchatka and tigers in the Far East.'It still is, you sinister little toad, it still is.
'I made some exaggerations,' the action-loving Russian leader said with a grin. 'When you talk about fishing, you can’t help exaggerating.'
Asked jokingly by the interviewer if he was trying to recruit the women, the KGB veteran responded by saying: 'No, I stopped dealing with that a long time ago.'
He added with a smile: 'But I liked doing that, it was my job for many years.'” (emphasis added)
