What about us?

What are Russians thinking about the election of the President of the United States

In the various corners of Russia, we asked people on the streets for whom they would vote in the election of the US president and why, as well as how the results of the elections will be reflected in the relations of Russia and America.

Elections in the USA, all these scandals in the press are terrible dirt. Once again I am convinced how much prostitution is more honest than the behavior of decorative citizens.

I like Trump more. Clinton is similar to a secretary who is striving to occupy the chair of the general director - he builds trifles to the rank of serious tasks, but does not see a close -up. This is in a woman’s and hysterical. Trump is on his mind, but at least he has a clear plan. He is somewhat similar to Putin. The fact that Trump spoke so about women (we are talking about the published audio recordings, on which Donald Trump in an offensive manner discusses relations with women) is either a complex or alpha smack. Which is unlikely to damage his political career. Or maybe even helps. Sexual energy is better than screeching (Clinton) about LGBT. Clinton gays supports Trump'sciousness criticizes. Some kind of pederasty at the state level.

Whoever won the US elections, nothing will change in Russia. Putin is a smart girl, in any situation, everything will correctly make everything.

I am for Hillary Clinton. Woman President is generally super! Something changes with each president, and I hope that for Russia for the better.

None of the presidential candidates is pretty to me. Behind Clinton stands NATO. And Trump is a smart businessman. Maybe he will be friends with Putin, but only in his personal interests. Putin is cooked with the people. He knows his needs. I do not think that American elections can somehow affect Russia. There has long been a “cold war” between us, they set up the whole world against our country with their propaganda. Putin always says that he is ready for a dialogue, but the Americans do not want to talk to us. They consider themselves higher and better than all countries, but this is not so. Even a person living in an apartment building will not survive without neighbors. He needs to communicate with someone, even at least in order to find out the prices in the market.

Elections in America are clowning. Clinton and Trump are old people, why are they going into politics at all?! They are 70 years old! But if you choose one of them, then, of course, for a man. Women are unstable, anything can be expected from them. If Clinton wants, it will click on nuclear digging - and there will be a war. Women do not think their heads. And Trump is a businessman, he needs his business to develop, and hence the country as a whole. He will not steal. Trump also climbed into politics, because there is nowhere to put his money.

I would not vote either for Trump or for Clinton - they are both populists. Unfortunately, recently politicians promise more to voters than they can give. Clinton essentially sells US foreign policy. Let us recall, for example, the story with the Clintons Fund. After the fund received two billion dollars from Saudi Arabia, Clinton no longer pronounces the phrase “Islamic terrorism”.

Probably, I’m living in the States, as a responsible voter would come to the polls and voted for Clinton. But this is rather from hopelessness.

I do not think that the result of elections in the United States will radically affect relations between America and Russia. They depend more on the foreign policy of our country, or, more precisely, on whether our president wants to steal something else or untie the next war. I hope that we will not start the war with the United States. And within Russia, nothing will happen to Russia, except that we ourselves again forbid something.

I would vote for Trump, I sympathize with him. He is closer to Russia, he is for Putin and, most importantly, he does not want war. We also do not want war, our sons will soon go into the army. I believe Trump, he tells the truth about America, and the fact that he is poured with mud, it was all planned for a long time. It seems to me that the military decides everything there, not President Obama.

Whoever they chose in the end, the main thing is that there is no war and that they would not be maliciously tuned to us. Maybe sanctions from Russia will be removed.

Hillary Clinton is Clinton's wife. Ambitious woman. I would not vote for anyone. Because you won’t get anything good from a woman, and he has a departure face in a cannon. One already wanted to improve relations with Russia. Brothers Kennedy. Tsereushniki killed, and the mistress at the same time - Marilyn Monroe. The mafia in the person of the CIA is immortal. I do not agree - to the fly, like Kennedy - brains on the hood. They are not beneficial. So nothing will change for Russia. Everything will remain as before.

Clinton and Trump are puppets, and Putin is a normal man, an athlete. They want to put our country on their knees, but this will not happen. Men like us - true Russians - will tear the throat for our country. Even Hitler could not win us. Here are the youth is lame, yes. This is because they are sitting on the Internet. The Internet is evil, there is one American propaganda. They even planted our youth - shooters, killings on computer games. Zombie them.

The Americans will not crush Russia with money. We have much more gold supply. Moreover, we are friends with the Chinese now. These are two great powers.

Trump is unprofitable to bite with Russia, he is a businessman. The United States imposed sanctions against Russia, but what is the use of them? They themselves suffer. American farmers arrange strikes. Milk is poured right in front of the White House. They do not know where to sell agricultural products. But we are an autonomous country, we all produce. Even Vanga and Nostradamus said that soon everyone would kneel before Russia.

From my small pole of the carpenter, I see closer what Trump says. And Clinton’s resources, all this media and political correctness is not close to me. America begins to disappear, civilization rises in the same way as ours, only differently. I would like the Americans to last longer and, perhaps, we would have pulled us out. It seems to me that Trump is able to stir up the people, configure for changes. It has the potential of changes that can lead to something good. How do we live? Everything goes and goes, as if tangled. And if someone who does not fit into the standards comes to power, someone who many people do not like, the people will stir. People will think about what is happening, and perhaps the country of development of the country will change.

I don’t think that after the US elections, something will change in our country. From what we got here, we need to get out ourselves. Here take Northern Korea. No matter how the whole world wanted them to live more satisfying and happily, until everything is finally collapsed inside, nothing could be done outside. If I am an alcoholic, then until I quit drinking, I can’t help me. Neither a combination of money, nor work, nor acquaintance with a good kind woman. Until I want to solve my problem, nothing will change. So with Russia.

I sympathize with Donald Trump. First of all, for his straightforwardness and courage in statements about his country and the existing order at the moment. His program sounds very tempting, I like that Trump promises to establish relations between Russia and America. Indeed, he has reasons to respond well about our country, because most influential people and people from show business have long been in good and friendly relations with a presidential candidate. Philip Kirkorov said about Trump: "This is a real gentleman!" - Despite the fact that in recent weeks of political race, accusations of sexual harassment have hit the candidate. Everyone understands that this is the political rivalry of the two super -teams of Trump and Clinton, and they will “dig” each other until the very end.

Philip Kirkorov said about Trump: "This is a real gentleman!"

I think that if Trump wins, and this is real (remember President Reagan - in the past of the actor and radio host), then he will be able to become the commander in chief of the power. There will be radical changes in the relations of Russia and the USA for the better in terms of economics, resources and spheres of show business. Two superpower will be able to become excellent partners.

In fact, I see how it will be. But as a person outside of politics, I would not want to disclose the result in advance. I will say one thing: both candidates will take worthy posts.

Elections? No, I'm not interested. I only know that there is Clinton and this, shocking. On the "x", it seems, his name. I think that since Putin in power, little can affect Russia, because he is at the level with other world leaders.

I'm not waiting for a nobody. But if you look like that, then it’s definitely not for Clinton. She has the main argument: an equal number of women and men in control places. She wants women to take the same places as men. But why put a woman in the place of a man, if there is already a smart man? And Trump is a clown! Have you seen the video with him? Show, not politics. In general, I don’t care, this is all foreign policy, and we suffer from the internal one.

I'm rooting for Trump. He is pretty to me, despite his absurdity, of those who are running for, he is the most adequate. I believe that the outcome of the elections will necessarily affect Russia. Two warring parties, both of their foreign and economic policy are different. If Clinton wins, then cooperation with the Russian Federation will be very limited. In economically, the influence of NATO in Europe will increase, an increase in local conflicts in the Middle East is also possible. Which, of course, will affect our relations with Europe and the whole world. And if Trump comes to victory, it is not the fact that he will fulfill his promises. He also does not promise direct cooperation with Russia, but warming is possible.

We do not know the whole truth that the big players know ... Well, you understand who I about whom ... only they know who you need to choose so that in Russia it is good. I’m not that I follow this, I just watch TV, and there they talk about it a lot now. I do not have my preferences, because I do not own all the information about underwater trends, but it seems like ours ... well, you understand, they are for this ... bald, like him ...

What? Speak louder, nothing is heard inside! A? America? What? Elections? No, we are not interested. We are not watching anything. We don’t even have a TV. A? You are talking here, here I have a face. Do not scream like that.
