      No. He makes no equivalence arg. He says Putin is stronger. But again, that's abt Trump. There's far worse. @ixochitl

      not really. Trump doubted Putin killed people and then said he could talk about Obama.

      Trump: claims if he loses it's bc election is rigged and encourages supporters to intimidate voters

      I mean, by all means focus on Putin and let the rest of the voter suppression go unnoticed. GOP loves that. @Harrydoesntmind

          Maybe it's bc you've spent hours wanting to launch illiberal attacks on Putin rather than liberal ones on Trump? @ixochitl

          serious question: what makes attacks on Putin illiberal?

          said earlier he doesn't care abt rationality of attacks on Putin bc he assassinated people w/polonium.

          what's illiberal about saying he is murderous and authoritarian and that its appalling that Trump admires him

          I'm very concerned that both sides are actively eroding confidence in elections and that's pretty risky, no?

          attacks on Franco weren't illiberal and neither is criticism of Putin

          it's not casual about McCarthyism AT ALL. but that was about denouncing economic ideology as unpatriotic

          more than that can't really be said. But it's worrying given Putin's enthusiastic support for white nationalism

          yeah I'm familiar. but suppression, by laws enacted by awful GOP state leg still not quite the same as spreading rigging myth
