  4. What proof do we have that his election is rigged!?
    Are we comparing him and Russia to the foregone Biden/Trump elections now!?
    This is at the height of hypocrisy & double standards.
    No, can’t let you get away with that one.
    We in the west need to clean up our own act first before calling out any other nation, with slander and lies!

  11. Actually looks as though he's physically in a bad way. Maybe before the end of his term Russia will be all out of Putins!

  14. The freedom of speech that western democracy gives, poorly trained people is the right of citizens to ridicule leaders and children insult parents.

  15. Elections are not rigged in the West. But in Russia???!!!! What a joke. And what is the world going to say when Putin “wins”? Having murdered his rival Navalny
    I think the answer is likely we’ll groan and/or shudder.

  18. sad spectacle.. The fact the far right got 3.8% of the vote, where in Ukraine the far right only got 2% is somewhat telling. Who actually needs denazification?

  26. Valdemar Putin is a master of social media manipulation.
    The Russian election is a for gone conclusion 🙄 Putin has illuminated all out spoken opposition to him.

  36. Yeah it was a sham even when western journalists did their own polls and found but didn't bother reporting that 83% of all them Russians queuing up to vote that they asked said they were voting for Putin and then he wins with 85%. Must be a sham. meanwhile in the west…. another indictment Trump… great reporting (not)

  37. Sham elections in Egypt never bothered them. Oh right they need a friendly dictator in power to protect the zionist entity.

  42. If the elections where a sham, how come you (the west) try to do everything possible to disrupt election procedings by arresting people who tried to vote abroad and having your fifth column in Russia to destriy votes in ballot with ink?

  46. Like any body elses vote counted but putin. Lol really seriously anybody believe that the people's vote counted?
    What a shame. Like American votes counted when they rigged biden election.

  48. 😂😂😂😂😂 sham election 😂😂😂😂
    As US observers did say how transparent it was the US could have only jaw dropping reaction.
    So save your breath bozo with your propaganda.
