I recently attended a recording of Stanislav Kucher’s program on the “Top Secret” channel. Before recording, Stanislav told me: he recently had a United Russia deputy on air, and that deputy told a story - as simple as life.
He is sitting, therefore, a servant of God, in front of the treasured button on Okhotny Ryad, scratching his turnips. And he scratches it because, according to Stas, he is not a complete loser, and he understands that in his mind, for his region, he should vote exactly contrary to party discipline...
And the Senior Comrade, Mr. United Russia, with the bearing of a general, stops next to him. What are you thinking about, he says? Well, our ordinary deputy answers, I’m thinking about how to vote...
The older comrade patted him good-naturedly on the shoulder and said:
- You need to think about one thing: how to save the loot!
Kind of joking.
They are simple guys. And even honest in their own way. But in a very, very different way...
