I thought he was dying. Must have come out of his death bed that the media has him in, to kick some ass.

Putin started this war and he obviously knew thsy a by-product would be the u.s. draining itself (of weapons and money) propping up Ukraine. I think Putin is taking a long view. Attrition. The Russians know it well. It can apply to western resources and Ukranian lives.

"This paints a scene from that movie about Hilter."

Hitler was a paranoid micro-manager. He believed himself a military genius...didn't like anyone, especially his Field Generals questioning his judgement, and telling him he was wrong about anything. When one of his Generals told him something he didn't like, he'd remove them from their Command, and replace them with someone else. It became a revolving door. He got even worse after the assassination attempt at the Wolf's Lair. He was a pathetic little man, who had visions of grandeur that destroyed his country, and refused to accept that he was responsible for any of it. At the end, in his bunker, he vacillated between acting depressed, and dragging himself around in a daze, to periodically shrieking at his Generals that they could still win the war if they did what he told them. He got off way too easily. Wish the Russians had nabbed him before he took the coward's way out.

"Putin is draining our economy and laughing."

Our government and elected officials are draining our economy. Please blame the people who are actually responsible.

Your diatribe would carry more weight if you could spell “losing” correctly.

Putin actually raised his voice and said, “Why are you playing a fool?”

NATO crossed the red-line they had been warned about for decades only after they had built and equipped an army in the Ukraine of 600,000 soldiers.
While at first Putin was trying for a ‘fight until the Ukraine negotiates’ strategy, it didn’t work. When he realized NATO will grind down to the last Ukrainian or NATO soldier fighting in the Ukraine, Russia switched to a war of attrition. Russia is losing soldiers but is confident the Ukraine will ‘run out’ of the resources to fight first. And so the deaths continue.

The Russians were allies of the Nazis first (for 2 years!), until Hitler stabbed Stalin in the back and invaded in 1941.

And Stalin was Georgian.

Stalin was Georgian. He did massacre Ukrainians though.

Biden, Putin and Zelensky are all extremely dangerous unstable “leaders”. All three need to go.

(And others as well, not the end of my wish list, but I’m just focusing on the ones itching for nuclear war over Ukraine bs.)

How refreshing, a boss who demands some real accountability from his reports.

Russia is in good hands.

Absolutely agree.

Their schoolyard fistfight ego trips are not worth all our lives after a nuclear war.

The former Warsaw Pact states had every right to join NATO. They suffered for 40 years under Soviet Russian control. Putin can stick the “red lines” were the Sun don’t shine…

Gee, you sure are taking it personal in your defense of Putin.

Methinks thou doth complaineth too much.
