Here is Col MacGregor in November of 2022
“Decisions were made in August about how they would approach the rest of this campaign and now we are looking at a force of almost 700,000 troops surrounding Ukraine; the large probabilities of offenses beginning in the next 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 8 weeks; whenever the ground freezes completely and the Russians judge their forces to be ready and they will move in and they will finish off this Ukrainian state.”
Re: 27 - I liked MacGregor as a disruptive force while in the Army. That in all like likelihood cost him an O-6 slot as he ruffled lots of feathers.
He has been exceedingly over-optimistic in how Russia would perform in this war and has been this way right from the gitgo.
