The Russian leader’s poodle, Donald Trump, confidently sold his authoritarian policies and talking points.
It is impossible to imagine that Putin would not have loved what he saw and heard. His candidate,—a man whose election in November would guarantee Putin’s victory in Ukraine and open the door to his conquest of Europe and the downfall of democracy in America—appeared to move closer to victory in November. Meanwhile, Trump’s opponent, the only man who stands between Putin and Trump and their desired goals, seemed to struggle.seemed muted, especially at first, was that he had a cold.
There was barely any mention of Trump’s conviction on 34 felony counts—and when it happened, the debate was already half over. There was little reference to Trump’s civil suits. In fact, the most heated debate in which he and Biden engaged was over their golf handicaps. Trump did as he was told. He emphasized how many Ukrainians had died “for no reason.” He blamed the war on Biden not Putin. He said he would end the war instantly—and while he evaded questions about whether he would cede to Putin the land Russia has seized, Trump did not hesitate to revert to his old lies about Biden and Ukrainian corruption.
Not Stalin, nor Brezhnev, nor his old boss Andropov had ever managed to blow up America’s system of government from within, to reduce confidence in it to the point that the main issue cited as a concern by most Americans is the future of democracy, and the candidate that they think, according to a recent poll, who would be best able to deal with that was…Putin’s poodle, Trump! Ha!Biden, in response, got the words right. If someone were to read the transcript of the debate, Biden did well.
