That's been my thinking all along. If Putin's really this bad (and he is, IMO) then imagine who's going to come after him and how much worse they'll be.
None of this ends well. There are no "good guys" in any of this and the people who are going to suffer the most outside of Ukraine happen to be us in America.
In 16 months we've gone from energy independence, the land of plenty, full employment and more, to begging for baby formula from other nations and a laughing stock led by a poopy pants filling dementia addled old pervert.
We are so screwed I don't think we can fully comprehend just how bad it really is yet, and it just gets worse and worse every day.
We’re the good guys, Russians are the bad guys.
Ukrainians are the guys dying in the heavy firefights, but they don’t want to surrender because they know it wouldn’t mean peace. It means torture and killing for them and civilians.
They beg for weapons and ammo and giving it to them is well within our capabilities.
