"Nearly all men can stand adversity, but if you want to test a man's character, give him power."

It’s not that Putin has changed it’s that we’re seeing the real Putin

[@veronicawood8295]

So sickening to think that a handful of such flawed, mentally deranged and unworthy men posses such immense power over the lives and deaths of so many human beings on this planet.

Instead of teaching students nonsense about George Washington crossing the Delaware, we should be teaching students how to identify sociopaths, narcissism, etc. Not electing these people is how you solve the problem of these people getting into power.

When Putin attacked Georgia, the world ignored his actions. When Putin invaded Crimea and a small part of Eastern Ukraine, the world said something about it, but gradually the world leaders forgot about it. I hope the world is learning from the past mistakes.

she is so true: maligne narcissist disorder. This explaines his behaviour quite easily.

[@MR-intel]

She describes sociopathic behaviour.

"...angry and out of control."

Man, the amount of damage fragile, insecure, narcissists can cause if they are handed power.

[@christopherpasta344]

Narcissist just takes and takes. They feel entitled to everything. It’s a void they can’t seem to fill

Cannot get my head round how she managed to stay with this Oligarch for 8 years . Maybe money had something to do with it .

“He pushed Putin up the stairs”. Such a shame he didn’t push him down some instead.

[@janedee6126]

The power got to him. This is what happened when you allow one man to rule for so long.

[@elletuppen4844]

At last someone calling it out. Thank you👏👏👏

Persecuted for wrong speech

I think Putin just became exactly what we portrayed him to be - a James Bond villain. Absolutely corrupt with power, wealth and his ideology of russian nostalgia.

[@CrimsonCaos]

If Putin wants respect, he needs to earn it not demand it from the world.

[@szymonmaraszewski1514]

Russian golddigger, she was ok with it so many years and now is playing she's shocked. Embarassing.

[@ssteel8401]

Who can swallow so much lies and propaganda ?

[@Bobby_Digital37]

Imagine all the horrible things Putin has done that we will never know about…
