I don't understand why you're so enamored with this murderous kleptocrat who dashed his and other nation's hopes for democracy in favor of kleptocratic autocracy and spends his every waking hour trying to undermine western democracy because its relative success, wealth and civil/political rights expose the moribund political and economic system in his Russia.
