He'll never catch up to Stalin though.

Comparing Putin to Stalin would be like comparing your stove to the heat of the sun.

Okay, sure. Stalin did strip the Soviet Union of whatever communism was left after Lenin was done with it. And, fair, he was a self-aggrandising psychopath concerned only with his own power.

But he did kill a hell of a lot of Russians, that counts for something, right?
