It still has to do the obligatory "of course the USSR's politics were totalitarian and evil and the US's politics are open and free" bullshit, but kudos to this guy for calling Biden the leader of a nation in rapid decline on March 6th.

There were obviously no free and fair elections in the USSR.

Guardian looking at gerry mandered maps, voting machines that have never, ever matched with exit polls, the fact Presidential candidacy is closed to non billionaires, voters purged off rolls, the captured state of the RNC and the DNC (who get to decide who can and cannot run), the role of the billionaire Murdoch press in elections, the fact Princeton and Harvard consider the US an oligarchy and finally the fact most senators are millionaires

Very free, very fair and democratic
