Former KGB agent who is current President of Russia does not joke about something so serious as personally ordering and coordinating interference to determine the outcome of all elections in the world, including and especially in the U.S.
If you report it as such and think it to be a joke, the deception worked.

Just because someone laughs and smiles does not mean they are joking.
Particularly when it comes to Putin.

Fuck you and your smug trolling, Vlad, you half-bright Chekist motherfucker. The Dem administration in Jan 2020 is going to shut down the internet of your entire “nation” and the oligarchs will put you in an unmarked grave.

The pathetic excuse of “I was merely joking” is an outrageous lie and has become the favorite dodge by DJT and Putin.

He doesn’t give a shit, it’s not a crime for him to meddle in elections, spying, coups or assassinations that is all statecraft, they do it, Americans do it, everybody does it.
What is a crime is for Americans to help him meddle in US elections.and that is what the Trumps did, and what Barr and his buddy Mueller helped cover up.

The big winner from 2016 is Putin. No doubt.

This trolling will win him kudos at home, where he’ll be seen as pwning the US.
He’s got nothing to lose and everything to gain by this.
He’s the only one around who can hang out the “Mission Accomplished” sign, after destabilizing the US and UK.
