    Putin praises Biden, calling him a 'professional' following Geneva summit

    (CNN)Russian President Vladimir Putin praised US President Joe Biden Thursday, describing him as a "professional" who is "completely knowledgeable on all issues," according to a Kremlin transcript of Putin's televised remarks.

    "Mr. Biden is a professional, and you need to be very careful when working with him so as not to miss something," Putin said during a videoconference meeting with graduates from Russia's Graduate School of Public Administration. "He himself does not miss a thing, I assure you, and this was absolutely clear to me."

    "Let me say it again: he is focused, he knows what he wants to achieve and does it very skilfully, and you can instantly sense it," the Russian President added.

    Gives me mixed feelings :lol: At least Putin isn't trying to pretend that Biden is suffering from cognitive decline the way the angry partisans formerly known as Republicans have been doing. On the other hand, he has also praised Trump, albeit not in the same ways.

    Yet Biden got nothing from the G7 or the summit. Putin is playing the press. No doubt Putin loves Biden. Who wouldn't love someone that they can roll.

    The left here hate Putin but now Putin is a good guy for praising Biden?

    Also Biden was protected by aides who blocked some of Putin's questions. Not very leader like.

    I have a tad more faith than that. I don't believe adults just switch camps based on one event.

    Putin is very intelligent. I bet he passed his KGB psyop "clown" course with flying colors.

    As for Biden... his clowning is too much over the top.

    Biden's team asked the Russian side to provide the issues that Putin might bring up with the press, so the US members could write up a response for Joe. This was after Joe Biden was seen holding cheat sheets or cards.
    https://www.business-gazeta.ru/article/513006

    Russian-operated news sources in the US are pushing this story, even though Russian news is laughing at Biden and the US media cause they know Putin was being sarcastic and smarmy. Biden is holding cards because he can't keep up with anyone, but Democrats actually believe that Putin "had to be careful when working with him so as not to miss anything." Are you guys really this stupid?

    Putin is just playing a game trying to con Biden. But the strength of the democratic system is that the potus is not a dictator and the system can use checks and balances to counter even a quisling like trump.

    Putin won legitimacy on the world stage, and he's receiving praise from many European and US outlets. He's still getting his pipeline, and Biden isn't going to sanction Russia. All Putin did was agree to continue talking while playing Biden and the media. The first thing Putin and his staff noticed was how Biden kept looking and nodding at the media instead of him, so he used it. He started criticizing the press for pointing out Biden's mental fragility. It was a beautiful tactic.

    There is nothing wrong with Bidens mental state. Putin has no legitimacy on the world state and the only US outeys that are probably praising him are the far right wacko anti anything a democrat does clown cay syndicate. What it looks like is that Biden handed Putin his ass and told him to run along. Putian has a 1.7 trillion dollar economy, they can't can't even really play cards at the top table.

    He did con Biden. Putin took the President away from the US game plan. I watched some UK commentators who were completely baffled by Joe Biden. Even before Biden arrived in Switzerland, the news was making fun of him cause he was just wandering around like a dolt while G7 while onlookers were laughing. They laughed at him multiple times. The words out on Joe Biden - he's senile, forgetful, and careless. The man is just recycling Trump policies cause he realized that the foreign policy and national security of the last administration was a pretty good framework.

    There's clearly something wrong with Biden's mental state, and it's clearly visible to anyone that's had a family member with dementia. The guy has trouble talking, and has trouble functioning even when he's given cue cards. The guy literally went after a CNN reporter during the summit, and he's had to apologize for it. That wasn't the first, second or third time he's snapped at people. He's not even being asked tough questions. https://www.westernjournal.com/news...g-dementia-mainstream-media-complicit-hiding/

    The rest of your comments are just delusional. Nobody thinks Biden did well at the summit. Clearly, you've never won a fight in your life. Oh so now you want to measure economies? You think Biden is going to bully Russia cause we've got a bigger economy. You're actually proud about punching down. Well maybe you should take a look at China, because they have the economic infrastructure to wage total war. That was one of the main issues discussed at the summit. As conservatives have been saying for four years, Russia wants to ally with the US against China, because they've been ruthlessly hacking Russia and the US. That's the sentiment of most of our allies. Nobody cares about Russia. Thanks for making our argument.

    Putin just using sarcasm to tell his people that Biden has the recall skills of labradoodle, and humiliating all the ****-for-brains Democrats that actually think Biden "does not miss a thing" even though it's widely reported that Biden confused countries and issues during meetings, and couldn't function without cards and printouts provided to him by both US and foreign staff members.
