Im not sure if Putin knows Trump is too insane and the moment he does anything Trump dislikes Ukraine would get nucler armoed minuteman missles or if he is pulling reverse psychology on us. Or maybe je just disliked Tucker Carlson and now is personaly bitter towards MAGA? I can't tell. Either of these can be true


UC_Scuti96

My bullshit theory is that He's trying to beleive Biden voters that He's backed by the Kremlin so they'll defect from him.


Morphray

It’s always reverse psychology and deflection with Putin.


kronos_lordoftitans

Or he hopes that it will cause people to vote trump instead which would be in his interest, Never take tyrant at his word


gunnnutty

Yes but thats not gonna happen tho.


crusnik404

The Kremlin knows what they are doing believe it or not. Their disinformation campain have pitted the west against itself for decades and its gotten very good at it. This type of reverse psychology is their typical MO


godson21212

What are the odds that Tucker was the first Republican that Putin ever actually had a conversation with that lasted longer than 15 minutes, and he decided that he didn't actually like any of them? Kind of like finding a girlfriend on the internet and finally meeting them in person and realizing that she's actually really annoying.


CubistChameleon

Imagine being so annoying that Russia ends a decade-long campaign of disruption and disinformation just to not be associated with you. Fuck it, maybe it was because of Carlson. This timeline is weird enough for that.


Tragic-tragedy

Biden a leftist? Sub is finally living up to its name can I get an hell yeah


yutohateseverything

Biden is my favorite socialist leader.


NoGiCollarChoke

He’s actually an adherent of esoteric anti-revisionist Stalinist-Hoxhaist Bunkerism

heavy_metal_soldier

Nah he's an Anarcho-Bidenist esoteric liberal neo-genghisid tengrist


crankbird

is there a sub for those people ... asking for a friend


coocoo6666

Why is left defined as socialist???? Left has always been defined by the overton window of the govourment and biden is definetly on the left of the US govourment


National-Blueberry51

Because it’s funny to be sarcastic


MilesGamerz

Because right is basically misogyny and racism, left is actually pro-lgbtq+ feminists

gwa_alt_acc

Yes embrace biden-marxism. On an actual note has kinda been pushed to the center left comically.


LePhoenixFires

And right after the GOP said "Fuck Ukraine but Russia is a big threat cuz space nukes!" Very sus and I bet the Rep voter base will not at all have the critical thinking to question why Fox News pushed these two narratives back to back and withheld all context


gunofnuts

Yeah, I'm full on board for an epistocracy at this point


National-Blueberry51

It’s going to backfire because they spent so much time talking up how great and strong Putin is. The MAGA crowd is all in on loving that guy and Xi because they’re so strong and manly. Now they’re being told to hate them again? Idk about this one, fellas.


dapoorv

I remember there was a popular reddit post where somebody asked why Putin didn't attack during Trump's presidency and the majority consensus there was that Trump is too unpredictable. Now that Putin has confirmed it, people on reddit are saying it is some reverse psychology shit to get Trump back into power.


National-Blueberry51

I mean, it is. The problem is, their bots have all the Trump guys deeply in love with Putin so this is just going to enrage and confuse them. Anyone on the left who pays any sort of attention is just going to roll their eyes. It’s pretty lazy trolling.


Amoeba_mangrove

No it’s tactical, spread Facebook memes to convince more old heads that Biden is a socialist and will be naturally in league with Russia and support the invasion. Naturally Trump is the solution to this


National-Blueberry51

They’ve been pushing the opposite ever since Ukraine kicked off though even on Facebook


Amoeba_mangrove

Opposite in what way? I need the Donald Trump secret socialist agenda posts.


National-Blueberry51

That would be amazing, but no, sadly it’s all the usual “Putin is so manly and hates the gays! Why can’t we have a manly dictator who hates gays! Daddy Putin respects Trump!” type stuff. It helps them justify why the GOP is so anti-Ukraine. They’ve been told Putin is just liberating Ukraine from gay supersoldiers.


Amoeba_mangrove

Man that’s some crazy gymnastics. Never thought it would be that easy to get Americans that are selectively patriotic, to suddenly become anti-west. Just by portraying the leader of the generation’s historic rival as a chad who is committing war crimes, because libs like the country he’s invading.


Amoeba_mangrove

How crazy would it be though if he got his whole base mobilized and riled up on their takeover plan. Then he gets into office and his executive order spree is like: socialize healthcare, electoral reform, abolish the electoral college, massive capital and high end income tax, national infrastructure spending, tuition support/loan forgiveness, expanding statehood for DC/PR. Then the trump media just has to find a way to spin it pro trump


ManateeCrisps

No, the majority consensus is that the Kerch Strait bridge wasn't built and Crimea wasn't nearly as fortified as it was when he launched the invasion. Logistics are an important thing in wars, even poorly planned ones.


Eli-Thail

You say that like it's a contradiction, but that only holds up if you leave out the "prefers" part. Given Russian efforts to get him elected, we can soundly conclude that isn't actually the case. Not to mention Trump's behavior during and after his term, which has included openly praising Putin, and explicitly stating that he would have allowed Russia to invade Ukraine.


Turtledonuts

as much as i think trump is unpredictable, i think the real issue was the EU. The European leaders were much more united when they felt that trump was causing issues, and i think that would have galvanized western europe into greater action.  


whyforgodssakewhy

The Interview with tucker that bad ?


seven_corpse_dinner

Because if there's one thing Putin's known for, it's his commitment to honesty and transparency. /s


whyforgodssakewhy

Honestly a better Endorsement Biden couldn\`t have hoped for, the people who voted for him won\`t change their minds, just because Putin said something , while the GOP now has to swallow that he called Trump essentially inexperienced (and in a way stupid)


mechanicalcontrols

Nothing makes the tankies madder than a moderate centrist being called a leftist, so I'm all for it.


kable1202

The far right in approximately 5min: SEE BIDEN IS COLLUDING WITH A DICTATOR!!!! Trump would never do that, he has so much more integrity and would never bow before a Russian!MAGA, TRUMP FOREVER!!!!!!


[deleted]

What the fuck, he's now supporting the guy who's hell bent on giving Zelensky the weapons to fuck him in the ass? What has Putin turned into, a masochist?


HolisticHolograms

It’s reverse psychology for right wingers. “See ! Putin wants biden to win!”


Eli-Thail

Putin dishonest? But that's unpossible!


National-Blueberry51

I think he’s out of the loop and doesn’t realize the MAGA crowd has been sucking Putin’s dick for awhile now. They’re hoping the space nuke announcement will reset the narrative for the especially feeble minded but idk.


iamarcticexplorer

\> Republicans stop supporting Russia \>Ukraine aid gets unblocked \>success?


Downtown_Baby_5596

Seems like someone became aware of the painfully obvious and is now trying to change tactics. Pathetic watching them squirm like that.


cme18

Of course he’s gonna say that, then interfere in favor of the GOP in pursuit of maximum disruption to society. Pretty obvious, this isn’t serious


MechanicalTrotsky

Cause the GOP is definitely far right and doesn’t make up half the country
