I think some of them respect Putin but I don't think they support him.

I'm not American but I don't see support for him on SW.

@Burnley123 Maybe they don't do openly much anymore, but the right and its leaders around the world have been praising him often over the years.

And when you remind them they don't seem to like it much

@Burnley123 Many Republicans appear silent on the issue....aka tacit support.
