Speaking to Russian TV in an on-camera interview on Wednesday, Mr Putin said Mr Biden's leadership would be better for Russia because he was a "more experienced person, he is predictable, he is a politician of the old formation".
He dismissed questions about Mr Biden's age and mental health, and said when they had last met in 2021, he had not noticed anything peculiar.
"Even then [three years ago] people were saying that he was incompetent, but I did not see anything of this sort," he said.
"Yes, he kept looking at his papers, but to be honest I kept doing the same. So there was nothing peculiar."

I think you meant to type biden?
Putin knows what's worse for America. It's in Russia's best interest for the US to fail.

That's why they support Trump , no understanding of real world politics , take everything at face value.

Putin doesn't care about America he wants what's best for Russia
I can't make sense of this. I don't see any sarcasm in his statements. It sounds like he's endorsing biden. If it's some kind of ploy, I'm not sure who he thinks he is reaching, being so straight laced in his delivery.
Anyone who takes Putin's words at face value has no understanding of psychology , if he wasn't being a little tinker he would have said it's a choice for the American people and we'll work with whoever gets the job.
I see you are projecting again. It's kind of comical how you lot arent self aware enough of the things you write.
Manipulation is a means by which a person is gotten to do something that the person was not initially inclined to do. As such, it is a form of power. Distinguishing it from other forms of power, such as persuasion, coercion, and physical force, is both important and difficult. It is important because it often matters which form of power a political actor uses, and manipulation is commonly thought to be a form of power whose exercise is undesirable.
Manipulation is a useful tool for autocrats, but it poses serious problems for democracies. This is because it appears to undermine the consent on which democratic legitimacy depends
