"When Donald Trump unexpectedly won the presidential election four years ago, the pro-Kremlin political establishment in Moscow literally
toasted him with champagne and Vladimir Putin’s servile parliament, the Duma, cheered him with a round of applause.
Trump nash—literally “Trump is ours,” but meaning something like “Trump is one of us” or “Trump is our guy”—became a popular catchphrase. Eventually, the romance cooled. But during the 2020 election season, it appears that Trump is
nash after all: so far, Putin is the only major national leader to have held back on congratulating Joe Biden on his victory. Meanwhile, the Russian state-run (or state-friendly) media have alternated mostly between open gloating over an American election in chaos and equally open sympathy for Trump."
