Russian State TV Mocks Donald Trump Supporters As 'Not Very Smart Primitive People'
The comments were made during Friday's edition of the primetime Meeting Point show which is broadcast by NTV, a network owned by state-controlled energy giant Gazprom. Newsweek emailed representatives of Donald Trump's presidential campaign for comment on Saturday. The former president remains by far the frontrunner in the race to be the GOP candidate for the White House.
A 52-second clip, complete with English-language translation, was shared on X on Saturday by Ron Filipkowski, editor-in-chief of self-styled 'pro-democracy' media outlet Meidas Touch. So far, it has received more than 913,000 views.
In the video, Maxim Yusin, a Russian journalist and political commentator, says: "The majority of people who vote for Trump are not very smart primitive people with whom you need to talk like this, with cliches and dumb slogans." The remark triggers laughter from other members of the panel, one of whom goes on to describe Trump supporters as "rednecks" and compares them to villagers who cry out for money.
