<p>Russian President Vladimir Putin said this week that he backs Democrat presidential nominee Kamala Harris for president, matching previous sentiment that he has expressed about the Democrat Party.</p>
<p>Putin made the remarks on Thursday while attending the plenary session of the Eastern Economic Forum in Vladivostok, Russia.</p>
<p>&#8220;We had Biden as a favorite, but he was dropped from the race. He recommended that all his supporters should back Harris, so we will, too,&#8221; Putin said. &#8220;She laughs so expressively and infectiously that it means that everything is fine with her.&#8221;</p>
<p>Former Defense Intelligence Agency officer Rebekah Koffler <a href="https://www.foxnews.com/world/putin-says-he-backs-harris-over-trump-adds-hes-ready-talks-ukraine?intcmp=tw_fnc">said</a> that Putin prefers that Harris wins because &#8220;Putin believes that he can manipulate Harris easily, unlike Trump, whom the Russians profiled as unpredictable and difficult to read.&#8221;</p>
<p>The Trump campaign responded to the endorsement by posting a graphic on social media touting Putin&#8217;s backing of Harris.</p>

<p>&#8220;In fact, President Putin would much rather see Comrade Kamala Harris in Office, as he strongly said just this morning,&#8221; Trump added in his own post on Truth Social.</p>

<p>Koffler said that Putin aimed to &#8220;unbalance&#8221; Harris by making statements &#8220;mocking, teasing, and pleasing&#8221; her.</p>

<p>Back in 2020, Putin <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/putin-democrats-insulting-trump-enhances-our-prestige-plays-into-our-hands-trumps-been-hard-on-us-communists-and-democrats-have-common-values">acknowledged</a> the Democrat Party is much more closely aligned to Russia, specifically the former Soviet Union than the Republican Party is.</p>
<p><b><a href="http://www.amiracist.com/" target="_blank" rel="noopener" data-saferedirecturl="https://www.google.com/url?q=http://www.amiracist.com/&amp;source=gmail&amp;ust=1724211156439000&amp;usg=AOvVaw2xQ8bdTcpfdrPBAzczIuck">WATCH THE TRAILER FOR ‘AM I RACIST?’ — A MATT WALSH COMEDY ON DEI</a></b></p>
<p>“First, the Democratic Party is traditionally closer to the so-called liberal values, closer to Social Democratic ideas, if compared to Europe,&#8221; he said. &#8220;And it was from the Social Democratic environment that the Communist Party evolved.”</p>
<p>“After all, I was a member of the Soviet Communist Party for nearly 20 years, or more precisely 18 years. I was a rank-and-file member, but it can be said that I believed in the party’s ideas,” Putin said. “I still like many of these left-wing values. &#8230; Yes, they are difficult to implement, but they are very attractive, nevertheless. In other words, this can be seen as an ideological basis for developing contacts with the Democratic representative.”</p>
