He knows these words very well.



Rossia - sviashennaia nasha derzhava,
Rossia - lubimaia nasha strana!
Moguchaia volia, velikaia slava -
Tvoio dostoianie na vse vremena!

CHORUS:
Slavsia, Otechestvo nashe svobodnoe,
Bratskikh narodov soiuz vekovoi,
Predkami dannaia mudrost' narodnaia!
Slavsia, strana! My gordimsia toboi!

Ot yuzhykh morei do poliarnogo kraia
Raskinulis nashi lesa i polia.
Odna ty na svete! Odna ty takaia -
Khranimaia Bogom rodnaia zemlia!

CHORUS

Shirokii prostor dlia mechty i dlia zhizni
Griadushie nam otkryvaiut goda.
Nam silu daiot nasha vernost otchizne.
Tak bylo, tak est' i tak budet vsegda!

CHORUS

Maybe candidate should be expected to recite the words of the National Anthem before they can officially run for the Presidency, right after they make their financial records available and promise to stop bothering the US citizens with daily Tweets.

A president who has claims that NFL players disrespect the flag and anthem, fidgeting like a little kid, not able to sing the entire anthem, while behind him, a bunch of people disrespect the flag by disobeying the part of the US Flag Code about holding the flag horizontally.

You're not supposed to fidget and sing along. Of flap a huge flag up and down.

uniformed young men standing next to him! One was holding his jaw tight and the other had a look of illness on his face. They were disgusted as far as I could tell, and I had the volume off so I could focus on the imagery.

Commented to hubs that it didn't surprise me.

The man is an idiot and the best example ever of the Dunning Kruger Effect.
