Are you surprised with President Putin’s decision to run for reelection?

Yes. He's one fucking hard working dude!

Not only is he (apparently) singlehandedly rigging global elections, shorting Western economies, running every terrorist group known to man and taking on God and his creation, but he's doing it without American help!

Joking aside, Putin is the sort of straight forward guy you wish every Western politician was. Putin may not be a good guy, but he's not the sort of backstabbing and double dealing type every American and Israeli turns out to be.

[goaded]

"not the sort of backstabbing and double dealing type", no, he just has people poisoned and thrown out of windows, invades other countries with the intention of making them part of a new Russian Empire and has the constitution re-written when it obstucts him.

Or the backstabbing, double dealing type we see throughout the Nazi spectrum, including the CCP and most of the Muslim world.

no, he's young and has full power. any competitor is in jail. that's why ya don't want communisim and a balance of power and laws and stuff.

[Asker]

70 is young?

[lightbulb27]

it is, believe or not. not saying he's 20. but he could stay in power... enough...10yrs easy.

[CindyRuns]

I also hear that the guys running against him seem to be very accident prone !!!

[BCA6010]

No. Why amend your government's constitution to allow unlimited consecutive terms if you aren't going to take advantage of it?

[Surely]

Putin has his goals to complete in Ukraine. His people will have the choice to decide if taking over Ukraine is what they want.
But then, Biden still has his goals right here in the US still in the works!
See any similarities?

[Avicenna]

The only thing I am surprised about is that he hasn't officially made himself dictator for life like his buddy Hitler Xi.

[slatyb]

Elections in Russia are a sham. Putin is dictator of Russia for life. I hope Ukraine manages to kill him somehow.

[exitseven]

No, he will be re-elected too. I heard Joe Biden was going to ask him for some pointers.

[AviatorTom]

No, I'm surprised he's still alive, after all the reports last month of his heart attack and death.

[KostasKouvalis]

Not in the least bit, but i thought he only has a year to live

[HouseMoat]

It hasn't been "president' Putin, for a long time now

[Astarlessnightsky]

I am surprised they still call it an election.

[Gent207-2]

Am I surprised that water is wet? No

[goaded]

"Election". No, not at all.

[AmeerX]

Not really

[Anonymous]

No he deserves it
