Perhaps Putin will go the route of Cody in "White Heat" - except Pootie will take the rest of the world with him.

After the fourth email of Putin’s hand flapping crossed my desk, I gave in and started my research. Those dozens of dust-binned claims of Putin being on death’s door might even have some credibility. But what do all of those mean? And why me? Just because I spilled the beans on the public evidence that Felonia Milhous von Pantsuit likely suffers from Parkinson’s Disease? Now everyone thinks Vlad has it, too?
Let’s get one thing clear from the beginning. That hand flapping tremor in the video just doesn’t look like Parkinson’s. PD usually has a “pill rolling” tremor, which is much smaller than the one in the video. This agrees with multiple neurologists who are reported to have concluded that whatever Putin may have, PD doesn’t appear likely. Putin’s is a whole-hand flapping tremor of sufficient violence to blow papers off a desk. And at this point, we must make the standard disclaimers.
I have not examined Vladimir Putin. I have not verified the tremor video, but since it came from several usually reliable sources, it appears legit. And that puts me in the same position as our national intelligence analysts. We must make the most reasonable conclusion possible from admittedly inadequate evidence. In other words, it has become my job to rush in where angels fear to tread. As Willie Edwards from “Swamp People” says about us trying to wrangle alligators, “Good luck with that.”
What follows is informed speculation.

EVIL SCUM.
“Vladimir Putin is well known as a Stalinist. He believes that the greatest geopolitical tragedy in history is the fall of the Soviet Empire. He would like nothing better than to impose the Kremlin’s iron gauntlet around the neck of all those nations that broke away beginning in 1989. His invasions of Georgia and Crimea seem to be just preludes to dragging many free peoples back under his steel boot. And as a KGB officer, he is well aware of the mechanisms to keep control once it is established. His murder of Alexander Litvinenko, multiple reporters, and attempted murders of Alexei Navalny and Sergei and Yulia Skrupal show us a completely amoral authoritarian.”
Evil incarnate.
For years and years, it has been reported that Putin rarely drinks alcohol.
Perhaps those reports are wrong, but I’ve seen no evidence that he’s a heavy drinker.

......”For years and years, it has been reported that Putin rarely drinks alcohol”.....
Yes....I’ve been aware that he doesn’t, or seldom drinks since I began studying him several years ago.
He has had plastic surgery and face fillers, like pelosi does so often. However he just might have cancer as some treatments for it does cause swelling.....
Could be cancer. There have certainly been rumors. Puffiness could be from steroids.
According to this DW piece, the Parkinson’s rumors are likely not true:

Who knows? He does not look well.
I tend to believe possible cancer is the issue. Often you can have treatment and surgery. Certain treatments can cause this puffiness as you retain fluids.
——Putin is going to live up to his destiny, he doesn’t have all that much time to make it happen. Maybe that’s why he made the push now.——
Near 70 when the age limit for Russian males is 53 or 68 depending on the source, Putin is living beyond his expiry date. He knows that and the feeling in his bones is “now or never”. He attempted to restore the failing health of Mother Russia by invading Ukraine.
While Putin is not an average Russian, he grew up in the USSR where health care was pitiful and aspirin was in short supply and there was not even Tylenol.
Putin sees his own end as close. To achieve the legacy of saving Mother Russia, he over stepped his national capabilities
That would be Zelenksy and his backers in the Biden regime.
Yes, cancer is a real possibly. So many things can cause fluid retention, though. My poor late mother had several such conditions (among them CHF and kidney issues) all at once and was on Lasix for years.
The puffiness looks like steroid use to me. Mom got that same puffy look when she had to take Prednisone from time to time (kidneys). Fluid retention is usually obvious in the belly and lower extremities, but does give that puffy moon face look. If he’s on Pred or some other steroid, it could be for pain from an injury, or kidney issues, or cancer or a bunch of other things, including cosmetic use. Pred can make a person rather nasty, and even nastier when when taken off it, even with the most careful tapering off.
Ugh. Correction: “does *not* give that puffy moon face look like steroids do”
It does - I had it.

Vodka , she is jour fren’!
