I've seen many posts over the past two years working the PR angle for Putin's image. Many suggest that Putin is collaborating with DJT to defeat the globalists and that he really has just been misunderstood and demonized by the MSM. I was part of a youth delegation to the USSR right before the coup and saw what the dying embers of the Soviet Union looked like. I saw empty, broken people resulting from decades of draconian rule, forbidden Christian fellowship and permanent injustice. Nothing teaches a young American kid to value freedom more than an experience like that - I literally kissed the ground when we landed back in the US. Perhaps Putin has rejected his KGB indoctrination and seen the light or perhaps he decided this is the way for now. As always Patriots, discernment and critical thinking are the order of the day.
