Who said this on International Woman's Day?

"You fill this world with beauty and vitality, giving warmth and comfort, cordiality and harmony with your tenderness and generosity of spirit,” he told them. “You care day and night for your children, grandchildren, and your family. Even today, on International Women’s Day, you are still caught up in your routine, working tirelessly, always on time.”

"Women give us life and perpetuate it in our children,” he went on, before adding that men should “do our utmost to surround the women we love with care and attention, so that they can smile more often.”

after we're done with our chores? After what he did to the first woman nominee for the presidency and to us as well by empowering a disgusting, unfit, misogynist, racist, philistine scam artist to lead our government off a cliff, he wants to empower us to smile more often?

I'll smile when it's Putin's turn in the barrel.
