US election 2024: Putin says he prefers Joe Biden over Donald Trump in the White House

It's a change in tune for the Russian leader, who praised Mr Trump during his first presidential run.

“Speaking to Russian TV in an on-camera interview on Wednesday, Mr Putin said Mr Biden’s leadership would be better for Russia because he was a “more experienced person, he is predictable, he is a politician of the old formation”.”

    I wonder if Trump exploded before having this explained to him or if his buddy gave him a heads up to prevent that.

      No, this plays into Trump’s campaign messaging. He himself is running on being the “drain the swamp” guy that will be unpredictable and do things differently from other presidents. Putin is just agreeing with that messaging in a roundabout way.
