#3 Not as blatant as Biden's theft. And their oligarchs didn't interfere the way our$ did: $100 million each from Steter and Soros, $200m from Bloomberg and $500 million from Zuckerberg -- all to ensure their desired outcome.

Russian longevity and fertility rates are increasing.
American longevity and fertility rates are now DECLINING.

America's now the equivalent of Yeltsin's Russia. Whose ruinous, treasonous misrule led to Putin's restoration of order and competence thanks to authoritarianism.

And which is our future, too. Either left illiberalism or right illiberalism, but illiberalism nonetheless.

#4 I would rather have Putin as president than this fool that we have. The others in his party too.

#6 Russian longevity and fertility rates are increasing.

Glad to hear that, Uneager Unomomp5931. Please let us know when they reach replacement levels.

As for illiberalism, we’re still at the ballot box stage of things, and the populace continues to vote with their feet for Constitutional bounds on government.

#7 Looks like the joke is on trailing wife.

Russia has already passed the US and continues to move up.

The US is in free fall. Only massive third-world immigration prevents the US fertility rate from falling off a cliff.

Fertility Rate - Russia
2020 1.82
2015 1.70
2010 1.46
2005 1.30
2000 1.25
1995 1.55

Fertility Rate - USA (all)
2019 1.70

Fertility Rate - USA (white non-Hispanic)
2019 1.61

#8 Oh wait -- those USA numbers are from 2019. The US birth rate surely must be catching up to Russia's, yes?

Oops:
U.S. Birthrate Fell By 4% In 2020, Hitting Another Record Low
May 5, 2021

So now the comparable numbers are
- Russian fertility rate in 2020 = 1.82
- USA fertility rate in 2020 = 1.69 (all races) and 1.55 (white non-Hispanic
