Unfortunatley that ‘IS’ how Russian politics play their game....as does Ukraine and others in that area.
I recall a former member of Doma.. and others... stating that “we do not do things ‘Soft’ as America does, we do it strong and hard”....and he then elaberated that this is how they do things.
I wouldn’t put it past any of them killing each other if they thought they could get away with it for political gain..because just as it is here.... that is the place to be..in Governance.... because that is where people make the big bucks via the corruption therein.
So of course Putin likely had him taken out. They’re bringing it up again because Putin’s vulnerable from the Wests perspective. ...they have a guy to assume Putin’s position and they’re gathering up for protests....so not surprising they want to have something tangible to nail Putin with.
Meanwhile Poroshenko’s loosing contol in the Government of Ukraine...and likely will loose further in the EAst. It’sn ungodly mess there and in Kiev....he’s trying to avoid marshall law but may have to do so before too long.

It is how the game has been played since the beginning of time
The founding fathers chose to implement a different system for wielding power and leadership succession that turns out to be unworkable.The Clinton and Obama presidencies have shown the world that an American leader can not actually be deposed
The founders were also well aware that the old, the tried and true was alway available and perhaps Obama will learn that fact
