Putin hails the fall of United States as a moral leader around the globe in annual speech

[phands]

First time I agree that Putin is right. He bought and paid for trumpo, and he has destroyed America's standing in the world...

Russian President Vladimir Putin used his annual address to hail the end of the United States’ influence on the world.


According to a write-up from the Financial Times, Putin told his country “luckily this monopoly is disappearing. It’s almost done.”


Putin went on to claim that Russia isn’t creating any problems for anyone and he has done his part to help create a dialogue with President Donald Trump. When Russia annexed Crimea the US began to enact repercussions on the country, but since Trump’s administration, Russia has had more flexibility to begin their own effort to influence the world.


He noted that Trump listens to what he says.

He shouldn't be gloating until he's arranged for Trump's successor.

Impressive. Putin's statement on the U.S. becoming a dumpster fire was strong and powerful.

The US never had any moral standing.

It never had a position of leadership.

It had incredible power over the rest of the world after WWII and instead of using that power to do good things like promote real democracy it has used that power to enrich a tiny handful of Americans.

Tell that to the people of South Korea.
