I meant it as both hyperbole and a broader swatch of autocracies. There is really no contest to Putin according to most US intelligence. You might disagree but that tends to be the convetional wisdom. And I said among others like Sisi in Egypt who got 89.6% of the vote and many other countries that have leaders with overwhelming support and no real opposition.
