I for one think they are in a Helluva lot better position to judge than someone whose only exposure to these figures has been the lies and propaganda put out about them by the US government.
Yeah, I've seen the glowing propaganda pieces on RT. They love him. Russians have always loved their strongman leaders whether they like it or not. Or, maybe the "love" is real this time? I don't know, I don't live there. And neither do you.

But, I'm pretty sure of one thing; Our government isn't the only one that lies.
