Does anyone really know who's running America ?

It's my honest opinion that Putin is the only leader holding the world together ........

Of course it is. If you didn't have that opinion, what would happen?

It's my honest opinion that Putin is the only leader holding the world together .......he's brought stability back to Syria and will likely bring stability back to Libya and then most of the middle east . The leaders of the middle east country's trust and respect Putin . He is a great believer in the integrity of sovereign nations . America is no longer the leader of the free world - it's starting to become the opposite , in fact.

I love your sense of purpose. How do you get paid, by the hour or by the post?

There was a statement not a question.

Putin talks a lot and does a little. he knows he doesn't have the money or military to lead the world. I guess you are a Russian troll.

Why? Russia is a has-been seeking to regain it's authority. Unlike the Brits who watched the British Empire collapse in the 1940s, the Russians are wusses. Spineless creatures who can't accept the responsibility for their own actions. The Russians had the chance in the early 1990s to be free people, but they are weak. Gutless. Cowardly. They gave up their freedom to have others do their thinking for them. Russians will never be respected as a culture until they are mature enough to stand on their own feet.

Common ground.

If the Russians want my respect, they'll stand on their own two feet and remove Putin from power.

Russians appear to like Putin.

Sorry but disagreed. Putin is strong, Russians, as a culture, are a whipped people who do as they are told and like it.

You keep making telegraphed assumptions , according to your programming . As for as I have seen , Russia has no desire to lead the world , but in recent years Putin's diplomacy has left America for dead . I don't think China has any desire to run the world either , but they are rising so quickly that it has become inevitable . As far as Russian military is concerned , they have reached (according to US concerns) nuclear parity with US , and have exceeded US in some conventional weaponry. The hypersonic Avangard missile has US in a panic.....but as far as I can see , Russia has no interest in invasions or any global regime change policies . Russian defence is world's best.
