Putin calls Trump’s Tariff plan “Brilliant–it will strengthen the U.S. economy”

You would think America’s traditional arch-enemy would be tight-lipped about the actions of our President, but that is not the case.

After Felonious Trump unveiled his drastic “Independence Day” Tariff Plan, Russian President Vladimir Putin was effusive in his praise.

“Trump is an economic mastermind,” Putin tells The Lint Screen. “He will cripple the economy of the world while enriching the U.S. coffers. It is brilliant. Charge other countries more money and bank it. American consumers will benefit because Trump promises that they will be richer than they could ever imagine. It is an ingenious move. All upside, no downside.”

You would think a stronger U.S. economy might bother Putin, but he says it doesn’t.

“I admire President Trump very much,” the ex-KGB agent says. “He is a most impressive adversary. Everything he’s done since getting into office is remarkably smart. He is truly making America great again. I couldn’t do a better job myself. I have nothing but admiration and envy for your leader with the extra large brain.”

Putin doubles over, making a sound like subdued laughter as he rushes out of the interview.
