I have very hard time listening or watching this man give speeches. I generally wait for transcript and read the speech.
As such I rarely see the tells that you mention.
I was unaware that 25th amendment had been brought up- if happened last week i was fairly disconnected from the news cycle.
Thanks for your insight, is most helpful.
Freepers have all noted how often he uses the word “I, my, me, and mine etc.” It's all central to his Narcissistic Personality, and his position of Power simply confirms to him he IS what he wants us to believe he is but we don't....standard trait again of using I all the time...he believes 'HE' should be paid attention to MORE than what he's actually saying or presenting.
I took a moment to read some other reviews on it...seems they're in agreement it's a great book and spot on. I think I'm going to get it. Might shed further light since there are so many revolts worldwide...and seem to surface quite quickly and easily enough that you know there's more to it then the actual purpose it began with. ...it's like anyone with 'any' grievance jumps on the wagon.
Socialist oligarchy works that way. The government comtracts out through redistribution all the schools, hospitals, housing rents, car manufacturers etc... Thus a few monopoly with a few rich people exist and the rest are workers living in poverty and without land.
Putin is already starting to flail about - could be a sign of some nasty stuff to come. In the end, he loses, but how many more also suffer is an open bet.
Excellent book.

Pick any point in Russian history and you’ll find a descent into madness. It’s par for the course. If radical Islam gets the bomb it will be via their take over of Russia.
Hmmmm..... the article presumes the Russian people have the gumption and where withal to revolt
I doubt it
More likely, they will resolve the issues by drinking more vodka
Analysts Predict a Russian US Descent Into Madness
There is something in the Russian mentality that make them want an absolute ruler. They had a shot at freedom and tossed it in the Round File for another absolute ruler, Putin.
Putin in the Czar even they don’t call him Czar. It is rare in Russian history for them to overthrow their Monarch for anything other than a different one.
Both’s supporters have a god like reverence, because they mistakenly think they will be included in the Ruling Class.
....”There is something in the Russian mentality that make them want an absolute ruler”.....
Familiarity.
Russian people are like abused wives who leave their husbands brutality.......once they are free they have no clue what to do “with” that freedom as they’ve lived under a “ruler” who sets what they can and should do.
How would they know what choice is if all is determined for them. Let alone passion and critical thinking to rise above their circumstances under their own strength.
In reality our nation people are quickly adapting to a government that “takes care of them”....though here there is a push back because we can identify when our freedom is being taken away.
