Russian Media Trump
Bizarre.
"Sam Adams: It can take a long time to assemble a found-footage film like this. Was this something you were working on before the 2016 election, or did it start after that?
"Maxim Pozdorovkin: What happened was my editor came back from visiting Russia right after the election, and he was like, “Everyone’s very excited about Trump. Everyone keeps calling him ‘our new president.’ ” This is before the extent of the Russian role in the election was really known. I was trying to interview people and then make a narrative entirely out of false things that they believed about Trump or about the American election, but then the found-footage material that we kept on finding was so good we just started going with that, and it felt correct right away."

A few years ago there was a program that the host went into a persons home and removed everything that was made abroad. Then replaced them all with American made goods. The cost was essentially the same and the quality was higher. After a couple shows, it disappeared. You can buy American.

Thanks, midcan5! That video is well worth watching.Originally Posted by midcan5
I was particularly struck by the section starting at 5:40 where newly-elected Trump meets Obama. Trump is "like an English lord" while Obama waves his arms "as if he is in the jungle". Then at 7:20 we learn that "pogroms have broken out in Washington DC".
I was reminded of an old Soviet piece about Oxfam, the Oxford Committee for Famine Relief. It had been set up to relieve the disastrous famine in Oxford, England (they said).
Communist or RW authoritarian, it seems that Russians don't change.

The video is only 12 mins and well worth watching.

Is Russian TV available in the U.S.?

Besides wasting 12 minutes of my life, what was the purpose of this? Why do I care what russians think of Trump?
