You’re doing just what I said y’all would do

In the end

I would bet my few remaining years on it

Putin could be lounging in Whitehall as y’all fear

You’d still claim he lost

This is a freeper personality parade

But Vlad the Invader is not in Whitehall, he's in Mariupol, which, iirc, was the last major Russian victory, May 20, 2022.

Vlad lost in Kiev, in Kharkiv and Kherson, and has not taken significant new territories since Mariupol.

If the level of Russian destruction of Ukraine is counted as "victory", then Vlad can claim credit for destroying about $400 billion in Ukraine infrastructure and other property, plus maybe 10,000 civilians killed.

So sure, Vlad the Invader has "won" a lot, but the last significant battlefield changes favored Ukraine.
