(#4808) Tick tock putin...

     As each day follows another, the time for putin is running out. Not only is he isolating away to protect himself from all possible death scenarios he is continuing to mismanage the illegal murderous Ukrainian invasion. So much so is he mismanaging that his once formidable army is now in tatters, being backfilled with renegade troops from war ravaged countries. The idea that Zelensky has over matched him never came into putin's mind. Because of that the quick victory putin imagined is now a stalemate at best and more likely a looming defeat for putin and his oligarchs. The international sanctions are humiliating the Russian economy and disrupting the wealthy oligarchs who are behind putin's actions.
     Not being able to readily resupply his weakened army and facing tremendous losses in both armaments and troops the writing is on the wall for the putin regime, and by extension, Russian ambitions. They are both metaphorically dead, and about to be in reality. There is no existence left for putin on this planet so his demise is the only conclusion he can expect. There is no holding onto power for him after his war criminal activities. The Russian people will finally catch on to his dupes and when they do he will suffer the fate of other failed dictators from Russian history. The sooner the better for the world and hopefully with a few more devastating days to the Russian psyche the end for putin will be nigh.
     There will be two great leaders who come out of this with the highest of accolades and they will be Presidents Zelensky and President Biden. The European countries will be lifted up as well for their allegiance to democracy and principles of standing up to the renegade murdering putin. What I also hope will happen is a thawing of autocracy in Russia and a turn to democracy with people like Alexei Novalny as possible leaders going forward. NATO has proven its worth and hopefully the necessity of further NATO growth will be moot. The end of putin will bring about a brighter day for many in the world and help to heal the wounds that the Russian people, wittingly and/or unwittingly, allowed themselves to be a part of.
