For someone who only knows a hammer and has never been freely elected as a politician, every ‘problem’ looks like a
nailsickle.
Fixed that for you.
No matter whether you are beaten to death or mowed down ... the result is the same in the end. In any case, the thinking of the KGB structures was able to survive the chaos of the 1990s and by remembering his ‘family’, this someone in the Kremlin put his buddies in the right places later ‘to secure himself’ - the same thing Trump is doing/already did. Unfortunately, they tend to fall out of the window or have short, lightning-like illnesses if they don't fulfil the upstart's expectations. That's the way it is when you fill positions not with expertise but with ‘cousins’ or „business partners“ who can't help but tell you what you want to hear and not what's really going on.
Has anyone ever witnessed a humanitarian gesture and truly credible gesture from this someone in the Kremlin that was not backed by some political agenda, financial or strategic advantage? The war in Ukraine will therefore ‘occupy’ us much more and longer than people (on all sides) initially thought. One dreams of MAGA, the other of MRGA. One uses money, the other fear and terror. Adolf Hitler had dreamed of nothing else back then with his thousand-year lasting „III. Reich.“ After only 12 years, it was already over. These guys come out of the same basket and their ego costs many lives.
