So apparently Biden is Putin's choice for president over Trump...

@freemo I wonder how much of that is driven by his own domestic support base crumbling... Maybe he *needs* global stability right now to shore up his own power, far more than he did before the Ukraine invasion.

@LouisIngenthron @freemo Even if Trump isn't actually his puppet, he was definitely more useful to Putin last time and would be again. But to openly say that could weaken Trump's support. So naturally he'll say the opposite.
