In what way is Putin a humanitarian anyway? I really don't understand the thought process there.

I mean, I know he's not, but there has to be some mental gymnastics going on here where you can justify saying that without imploding. I'm baffled. It's like me telling my dog that she's a great little accountant. It makes no sense.

Trump and Putin are both egomaniacs, the only way to talk to them is to endlessly give them compliments and try to somehow still get your point across. I am not saying that is what this grifter is doing, but that is the way you talk to these people. They are incapable of accepting criticism, or responsibility, or not shitting their pants in public, at least one of them.

Their justification for calling Putin "a humanitarian" is because he hasn’t (yet) released any of the ‘inconvenient truths’ he’s holding up his slave sleeve.

Please daddy putin, sell me some diesel, I did an oopsie! I managed to destabilise global supply, driving up profits and now I don’t have enough to keep the plebs happy before midterms.

Because we are suppose to ignore what we see with our eyes and only listen to what we are told.

It makes much more sense when you consider these are evil people. Not mental gymnastics, they are simply evil men bent on wrecking the world for their personal gains.

These sick dictators think they are god's gift for mankind. But still they need people to tell them that out loud otherwise it doesn't count. Doesn't matter if you're paying them or it's with a gun to their head. It's the truth now and you are content. It's exactly the same with Trump wanting the Nobel peace price.
