Ronny Chieng Spots Where Putin Is In 'Real Danger' Ahead Of Russian Election
HuffPost
The "Daily Show" correspondent declared that "anything can happen" in the presidential race.
“The Daily Show” backed up Russian President Vladimir Putin’s prediction of “valued and meaningful” votes in the country’s upcoming election, where Putin is widely expected to be elected to a fifth term.
The vote for the country’s president, which will take place from Friday to Sunday, is “all but guaranteed” to be a win for Putin in a race where most of the opposition is either “dead, jailed, exiled, barred from running or simply token figures,” CNN noted.
Guest co-host Michael Kosta, on Thursday’s edition of the show, turned to correspondent Ronny Chieng to break down a “tight race” with an obvious front-runner: Putin.
“The red areas are where Putin is winning so far,” Chieng said in front of a predominantly red map of Russia.
“He’s doing well with urban voters, farmers, dead people, dead people with college degrees and women inside of larger women inside of larger women.”
