Russian state TV program 60 Minutes played the clip of former U.S. President Donald Trump asking CPAC: Do you miss me yet? The co-host Olga Skabeeva eagerly replied: Yes, we do!
Other experts on the Rossiya-1 network nodded and concurred. Trumps departure has sucked the joy out of pro-Kremlin propagandists, with a host of new problems looming on the horizon for Russia. Instead of jolly boasts about owning Americas president, Russian state TV shows are now filled with gloomy experts, and discussions about the impending flood of U.S. sanctions which are so tense they leave the pundits on the verge of coming to blows.
During the Trump years, state media mouthpieces, tightly controlled by Russian President Vladimir Putin, put on a happy face and followed his lead in exclaiming that they wanted Trump to be elected solely because he promised to improve the U.S.-Russian relations. Appearing on domestic talk shows and news programs, experts are now slipping up and admitting that they preferred Trumps presidency mainly because he was so devastatingly bad for the United States and its allies. After President Joe Biden was electeddespite Russias efforts to the contraryall pretense faded into oblivion.
During his nightly program The Evening with Vladimir Soloviev this Tuesday, prominent state TV host Vladimir Soloviev exclaimed: Why would America think that were interested in changing or improving our relations with them? He added: What makes them think were interested in a reset? Soloviev predicted a harsh and asymmetrical response to Bidens first round of sanctions that will include further hostilities in Ukraine, long seen in Moscow as one of the main battlegrounds in Russias fight against the collective West.
