I'm Russian and the funny part is that they use "American Putin" as some kind of scary worst case scenario. Putin definitely does abuse power of intelligence agencies in Russia, but IMO we could have worse than someone who at least formally commits to ideas of patriotism, Christian conservatism, pro-family and pro-marriage values etc.

In America, the current intelligence agencies are trying to subvert all those values just as America started getting them back after the rule of Obama and globalists like GW Bush.
