I am only sure of one thing concerning
Vladimir Vladimirovich Putin....He did not amass unto himself all the billions in stolen oil money, only to try and spend it in the ‘hereafter’

Vladimir is in this for the long hall.

What else can Putin say?
* His economy sucks and hasn’t moved beyond primitive resource reliance...
* 20% of his people are below the poverty line
* He claimed “Mission Accomplished” in Syria only to then have dozens of un-uniformed “mercenaries” return to their wives and children in body bags in the past few weeks alone...
* He had to hide the urine of his doped up 2014 Olympic athletes.
* His alliances rely on rogue regimes like Iran, Syria, and North Korea.

But by gosh darn it: he has nukes. He is still 5 foot 7, divorced, and balding....

Better check this out:

The header translates to:

Strategic Rocket Complex “Satan” - Documentary Film

The Russian missile R-36 “Voevod”, it’s “Satan”, according to the publishers of the “Guinness Book of Records” - the most powerful and most difficult in the world. By weight, it is comparable to the Kremlin’s “Tsar Bell” - more than 200 tons.

The missile can deliver 10 nuclear and hundreds of false warheads to the North American continent from anywhere in Russia. At the same time, the total volley of only one missile division in terms of power is equal to more than 13 thousand atomic bombs dropped on the Japanese city of Hiroshima. “Satan” is not afraid of any missile defense.

Israeli fighter jets have been flying over over active S400 missile batteries in Syria for the last 2 years.

Come on Ivan, your most advanced anti-aircraft batteries are useless against our stealth forces.

I have never seen a more insecure and puffed up bunch of losers like Putin and his propagandists.

They just don’t get it, they are a third-rate power that can’t afford to maintain its subs or aircraft carriers.

But they are going hypersonic...... Yup.

As Reagan bankrupted and caused the Soviet Union to collapse through an arms race, Putin and Xi are tag teaming the US with the same goal in mind.

Nope. Our needed military spending is far less than the social spending and growth of government foisted on us by liberals.

LOL - it is safe, it’s Wikipedia. But I still remember hearing it at the time, which was just before the Internet and wondering what the hell this clown was talking about.

He should have been laughed off the planet.

Put that on a bumper sticker and every DemoncRat that sees it will think you are talking about them.

I know I know, but his people just eat this stuff up. But even Chavez was wildly popular once was he not?

May be its time to develop a nuclear rocket (many competing designs) which Russia says it is doing, and be able to quickly launch a space-based spacecraft carrier defense system, if need be. Cannot find it on Walmart though.

Nuclear thermal rocket design has been around for a long time.

Very high performance, but an accidental breach would spread fallout over a wide area.

Both the Russians and the US have tested the engines.
