Vladimir Leonidovich, why does Trump abruptly compliment [Putina, Xi Jinping and Kim Jong Una]?
Vladimir Zarichin, Politologist: – Not suddenly, due to the fact that Trump has said akin things before. Basically, it's different from Joe Biden due to the fact that Biden says nasty things and does them. And Trump sometimes said good things, but he inactive did nasty things. That's the difference between them. If you remember the 4 years of Trump's presidency, you haven't given us much reason to rejoice. It's his kind to say good words and behave differently. And Russia is no easier than his compliments. Biden is mostly driven by individual aversion, primarily to Putin. He has not forgotten and can not forgive his disobedience. In March 2011, Joe Biden, as vice president, visited Russia and actually demanded that Putin not take part in the 2012 election so he would not return to the presidency. And Putin decidedly “sold him off.” Biden remembered that and now he's taking revenge. Trump doesn't have that kind of motivation. He defends the national interests of the United States, and it will not be easy for us to do so. But there are no specified negative individual emotions towards Putin and Xi Jinping. They are worthy rivals to him – this is his position.
Who does Trump want to make a good impression on?
– On all the mentioned leaders of the states and on those who are their sympathizers. That, by the way, is much more than a billion people. In addition, Trump wants to separate himself from Biden, who always likes to insert something malicious about his opponents. Trump works on another principle. You know, there are boxers who say, "Good guy, tough guy. It is good to give him a face!”
So why is Trump treated so well in Russia, and even called “Donald Fedorovich”? (Father and grandpa Donald Trump had the same name – Fred (Frederick) – ed.).
– due to the fact that flattery, even very rude, affects people. Unfortunately, it's human psychology. I erstwhile wrote on the social network: of course it's a good thing it's not Hillary Clinton who was chosen, but Trump, but we gotta consider that we're going to have no little problem with him. Not like her. Do you remember erstwhile political scientists in Russia, erstwhile they learned about Trump's triumph in the election, opened champagne with joy? And then Trump started closing Russian institutions in the United States, breaking treaties on arms simplification with Russia, etc. He then spoke to Vladimir Putin in Helsinki and said that the Russian president is simply a very intelligent person. And he continued to retreat from contracts, break treaties, close our representations and expel our diplomats.
Why, then, did a real war start against him in the United States?
– due to the fact that for all the nasty things he did to us, Trump has something that makes him very disliked by those who constantly torment him in the United States, and which is mostly beneficial to us. Trump evidently believes that the United States must be more curious in itself than the planet around them. That's a fact. And in this respect, any of his actions can benefit us. And any of them have the other effect erstwhile they give us trouble.
possibly Trump is on fire erstwhile he starts to praise Putin, Xi and Kim Jong Un so much?
– Of course he did, due to the fact that a deep state in the United States treated him radically. Trump believes that the support of a large part of the country's population may not be a warrant of its safety and will not be protected from these activities. Moreover, all the global rules of the game on the planet arena, which were destroyed by Obama along with his deputy Biden and Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, were inactive destroyed by the same Trump. And now the rules of the game began not to be respected in the United States alone. due to the fact that now that support of the opinion inactive seems to be a serious argument in the hands of politics, it turns out that it does nothing. Everyone knows that deep state support is sometimes more important. Trump feels and understands that this government does not number on the opinion of a large part of society and that it is ready – and this has been shown by repression against those who have gathered to defend Trump before and inside legislature – to suppress all protests by force. So Trump is definitely upset.
It would seem that in specified a situation he should say something aimed at a national audience in the United States, alternatively than trying to delight Russia, China and North Korea...
"In the United States, many people are not hostile to Russia and China. Not many people think about North Korea there. Many Americans are dissatisfied with Biden's fascination with Ukraine. These people, like Trump, besides think it would be better to take care of themselves.
