big surprise, while Trump gets shock and out rage in most of Europe, Russia sort of likes him

Posted by crash davis (aka trisha) Feb 29 '16, 13:30

Mr. Trump enjoys greater popularity in Russia, where the budding bromance between the American and President Vladimir V. Putin has won him praise. The news channel Russia Today, or RT, paid homage to Mr. Trump’s talents as a shock jock, and published an interactive article “on the top ways to be offensive — Trump-style.” Among the insults highlighted was Mr. Trump’s off-color attack on the former Representative Barney Frank, referring to what Mr. Trump called his “protruding nipples.”

“Love him or hate him, the Republican has an uncanny ability to elicit an explosive response whenever he gets near a keyboard,” said the broadcaster, which is funded by the Kremlin.
