His top military brass and underlings all have families in Moscow and they wouldn't hesitate to take him out if he should give the order to cross that nuclear line.

How you know this? If you hope for this then I understand. BUT Putin is supported by majority of people. The generals of military are no difference.
I notice that Americans somehow believe that they may push Russia by any means and she won’t answer nuclear. But Putin and all his establishment already said clear that Russia will use ANY means if threatened enough.
Now Russia has departed START treaty. I think because they restart the production of new low-yield nukes to use them during this war in Ukraine.
This war will go nuclear inevitably. I think people of the world leave without big war log enough so they stopped worrying nukes. They must be will reminded.
