Putin ally predicts US will collapse in ‘imminent civil war’
Aclose ally of Vladimir Putin has predicted America will collapse in an ‘imminent new civil war’ amid the presidential election chaos in his latest social media rant.
Dmitry Medvedev, deputy chairman of the Russian Security Council and former prime minister of Russia, believes that US will keep its sanctionsagainst the Kremlin in place ‘forever’ or until a civil war brings the country to ruins.
Medvedev, in a Telegram message Saturday, offered his thoughts on the US presidential election, branding Democrat nominee Kamala Harris as ‘inexperienced’ and ‘just plain stupid’, and Republican rival Donald Trump an ‘eccentric narcissist’ and ‘pragmatist’.
He argued that although Trump ‘understands that sanctions harm the dollar’s dominance in the world’ and has ‘threatened to lift’ them, he will not actually do so because it is an ‘insufficient reason to stage a revolution’ in an anti-Russia America.
He further alleged that Harris, who Putin has endorsed, will continue to deliver ‘beautiful, meaningless speeches’ during which she will ‘read off a teleprompter while laughing contagiously’.
Russian leaders, apparently angered by the sanctions that were imposed on the nation after its invasion of Ukraine in February 2022, have routinely touted the narrative of another civil war. Medvedev even previously alleged parallels between the current political climate and that of Abraham Lincoln’s presidency.

The US has gradually increased its sanctions on Russia. President Joe Biden issued an executive order in December that would allow the US to directly sanction foreign banks that facilitate transactions for Russia.
But Biden dropped out of the White House race in July and endorsed his vice president for the job.Putin last week also threw his support behind Harris.
Medvedev, who has made headlines throughout the Ukraine war for his outlandish social media rants, has now weighed in on the upcoming election and the impact he believes it could have on Russian sanctions.
‘Out of spite for the current administration, Donald Trump has threatened to lift sanctions against Russia. But will he really do it if elected? No, of course not,’ he wrote in a Telegram post Saturday.
‘For all his apparent bravado as an ‘outsider’, Trump is ultimately an establishment insider. Yes, he is an eccentric narcissist, but he is also a pragmatist.’
Medvedev claimed that as a ‘businessman’ Trump is aware of the financial impacts that the sanctions have on the US dollar, but argues he still will not go against DC.

‘Trump understands that sanctions harm the dollar’s dominance in the world. However, that’s insufficient reason to stage a revolution in the United States and go against the anti-Russian line of the notorious Deep State, which is much stronger than any Trump,’ he said, before taking aim at Harris.
‘But what about Harris? You shouldn’t expect any surprises from her. She is inexperienced and, according to her enemies, just plain stupid. Beautiful meaningless speeches and boring ‘correct’ answers to questions will be prepared for her, which she will read off a teleprompter while laughing contagiously.’
Medvedev, then suggesting yet again that America was on the brink of destruction, concluded: ‘There were sanctions against the USSR throughout the 20th century, and they’ve returned on an unprecedented scale in the 21st.
‘So, it’s sanctions forever. Or rather, until the US collapses during an imminent new civil war. After all, Hollywood makes films about this for a reason.’
Trump’s spokesperson Steven Cheung, in a statement to Newsweek, responded to Medvedev’s comments, claiming that ‘Putin has endorsed Kamala Harris because he knows she will be a pushover for Russia’.
DailyMail.com has approached the White House and Trump campaign for comment.
Medvedev (pictured September 9, 2024) has previously warned that the US was on the brink of civil war, having done so last July and in 2022. However, the State Department previously dismissed his remarks as ‘standard Kremlin nonsense’
Medvedev warned of a ‘premonition of civil war’ on July 4 this year, alleging there were parallels between the American Civil War and modern day America.
He also compared the civil war to the ongoing conflict in Ukraine.
Medvedev’s predictions are seemingly baseless, with the Putin ally having predicted in 2022 that an internal war would erupt in America in 2023.
The US State Department has also previously dismissed Medvedev’s statements, with a spokesperson telling Newsweek: ‘We know by now not to take Medvedev seriously. This is standard Kremlin nonsense.’
