On Wednesday, December 18, 2019, President Donald J. Trump was impeached by the House of Representatives on two articles of impeachment.

Not surprisingly, when Vladimir Putin weighed in on the news on Thursday, he sounded very much like a mouthpiece of the Trump White House.

One of Republicans' favorite talking points about impeachment is that Democrats have been trying to impeach Trump ever since he got in office, and that impeachment is just another way of re-litigating the 2016 election.

They also assert that Trump did nothing wrong, neither in 2016 nor on the call with President Zelensky of Ukraine.

Cue Putin:

"One party that lost the elections, the Democrats, is now trying to find new ways by accusing Trump of collusion with Russia. But then it turns out there was no collusion, this can't be the basis for the impeachment. Now they came up with some pressure on Ukraine.."

Sound familiar?

Watch below:

People were not surprised.




Some wondered who was following whose talking points.





After all:

The puppet master is at it again.
