Russian President Vladimir Putin said yesterday jokingly that he wants Kamala Harris to win since President Joe Biden urged his supporters to vote for Harris, and he’s one of them.
Putin also commented on Harris’s signature laugh, saying that she might lift US sanctions on Russia if she’s in such a good mood. On a more serious note, he added that, ultimately, the election’s outcome will rest in the hands of the American people, and Russia will respect that choice.
Putin’s comments come after the DOJ charged two Russian news outlets with spreading propaganda in the US and pushing the country’s interests.
Trump reacted to the Democrat-led “Russia-hoax” accusations by writing on Truth Social that Democrats are “trying to say that Russia is trying to help me, which is absolutely FALSE….In fact, President Putin would much rather see Comrade Kamala Harris in Office, as he strongly said just this morning.”
