👍 BINGO!
Who cares, seriously Putin is what, 77 yrs old. If God willing I make it to his age I will be just happy to be alive
“Putin” is 72. President Trump is 79.
Restless leg syndrome.
He didn’t want to invade Ukraine.
It was those danged legs that took him there.
It’s like they have a mind of their own.
Speculation by whom?
