CNS News–Supporters of former President Donald Trump found themselves at the receiving end of scathing ridicule on Russian state-controlled television, as commentators derided them as “not very smart primitive people.” These disparaging remarks were aired during the Friday edition of the primetime Meeting Point show, broadcasted by NTV, a network owned by state-controlled energy giant Gazprom.
The comments quickly garnered attention after a 52-second clip, accompanied by the English translation, circulated widely. In the clip, Maxim Yusin, a Russian journalist and political commentator, characterizes Trump supporters as “not very smart primitive people” who respond to simplistic rhetoric and slogans.
The panel members shared laughter at the characterization, further describing Trump supporters as “rednecks” and likening them to villagers clamoring for financial aid. The discussion also delved into Trump’s communication style, with one commentator ridiculing his repetitive use of a limited vocabulary. Despite the mockery, concerns were raised about the implications of Trump’s potential return to the presidency.
