Putin replies to Biden's 'rude' comment about him

Russian President Vladimir Putin said that Joe Biden's "crazy SOB" remark showed why the Kremlin felt that for Russia, Biden would be a preferable future US president to Donald Trump.

"We are ready to work with any president. But I believe that for us, Biden is a more preferable president for Russia, and judging by what he has just said, I am absolutely right," Putin told state television, with a slight smile.

The Russian president said earlier this month that he preferred Biden to Trump as America's president because Biden was "more experienced" and "predictable."

Essentially, he is calling Biden a "useful idiot" without saying it directly.

If you are being preferred as a president/leader by your enemy, that's not a compliment.

[qgxoeql]

Putin "We prefer a weak President who can't remember anything".

[klobasa]

Putin just called Biden an idiot in most polite way possible hahahaha

[anazlem]

The most classy way to call someone a "weak dumbass" lmao.

[casey]

If you see your enemy is making a mistake, do not make any attempt to correct him.

[HappyGuy-cnpo]

Biden: You SOB!!!
Putin: **insults Biden in literally the most graceful way I’ve ever seen**

[Dumfancy]

Putin not only called him stupid as politely as possible, he also insinuated that Biden is corrupt

[Melissa-ffoy]

Sad when the ruler of a country, that we've been told our whole life is the enemy, looks good compared to ours.

You can bet that if Putin said he preferred Trump as President, the U.S. media would be having a field day with it. Since he said Biden was better for Russian interests we basically hear nothing about it.

The more I have learned about the people of Russia the more respect I have gained for them.

[michelesoranzo]

Elegant way to reply to an insult, a real leader.

[eightzerotwo]

Putin is playing chess while Biden just pooped his pants again. The humiliation is off the charts

[superbasement.]

if a kid insulted you, just ignore it or give him a lesson. that's exactly what Putin did.

[askyalumumba]

I liked how polite and respectful both Xi and Putin are. Unlike those angry and condescending Western leaders.

[markwilliams]

It’s hard not to laugh. This could mean so many things, but definitely means one thing.

He practically just said, "if the leader of a country that we have to work with is an idiot, all the better for us, therefore we're better off if they have Biden as president."

[leeclarke]

Lesson one to Biden and western leaders.
