Maybe when we commented on this thread. But there were signs that it may be the opposite case. Now with Assange flat out denying Russia is involved with their e-mail stockpile.....I don't know. Something tells me Putin would rather deal with an adult than the pansy we have in their now. I'm not an authority on totalitarian psychopaths. But with the last 8 years living under this regime, I'm learning!
One thing is for sure. All the feminizing of our armed forces is probably making Putin very confident.
