So Putin is not really that different from Trump.
Instead of MAGA it's MRGA and organise fake support to massage a fragile ego.
Without doing the link.. I’d agree. trump had it given to him, thus never had to struggle. putin didn’t, so he competed. trump’s definitely a narcissist.. As for putin, I’m not sure; he makes me sick, though. I’d say it’s as much the development of yet another ‘Russian Tzar’ ..and the nearly religious iconography that goes with it that putin’s promoting.
