Putin got his stooges to specifically amend the Constitution to allow him to serve until 2036
he wouldn’t do that unless he planned to stay
Putin may have planned to stay until 2036, but that is probably before he got all his Covid shots and then discovered his immune system was messed up and now he has Cancer or something serious.
My brother was recovering from metastatic liver cancer and they were talking about removing some of the shrinking lesions. Then he got his 4th Covid shot and 2 weeks later they had him on much stronger chemo, and now on a serious drug that seems to be a “hail Mary” that may give one a few more months to live.
