Vladimir Putin - the most powerful man in the world

.
he can do almost anything he wants

the U.S. can't stop him - I think he's laughing at the U.S.

he has close ties with China, N. Korea and other bad actors

he can invade a country causing the death of hundreds of thousands and no one will dare step up to try and stop him

Well, Trump threatens the stability of the NATO alliance, and if that doesn't hold up, then truly Putin can invade any country. Ukraine isn't a NATO country, but it should be.

Have you not seen all the air sent to Ukraine to help stop him?

NATO countries not funding their militaries threaten nato not trump.

the U.S. aid to Ukraine is limited -
these regulations could be overridden or changed if there was the will but there isn't
maybe because of fear

from the article:

"There is a list of restricted items under ITAR which includes firearms, ammunition, missiles, explosives, vehicles, aircraft, military training equipment, personal protective equipment, and technical data. All items on the extensive list are restricted and companies or individuals must seek approval before exporting them.

The ITAR was enacted by Congress in 1976 as part of the International Security Assistance and Arms Exports Control Act during the Cold War. The intention was to limit arms being exported to a key adversary during an era of conflict.

While the regulations were a good idea at the time they were drafted, and kept munitions out of the hands of the USSR, today they are hurting Ukraine’s chances of winning on the battlefield.

Designed for a different era, according to US defense sector executives who asked not to be identified, they are preventing allies, and the US specifically, from sending military aid to Ukraine. If Washington genuinely wants to help Ukraine win this war for good, it needs to be open to taking on higher levels of risk when it comes to exporting munitions and battlefield technology."

The US can't stop him, but he's lost 500,000 troops to death and injuries in Ukraine.

He was in Chechnya two weeks ago trying to get Kadyrov to give him more troops. Kadyrov, who is a devout Muslim, might give him a token number of troops, but he's saving his young men to increase his own population while the population of Russia shrinks by the day.

Russia will ultimately become a Muslim majority and Kadyrov knows it.

In record time of only ten years, England an Wales are no longer majority Christian, Russia will follow.

Putin 'Endorses' Kamala

Probably looking to score some A at the next G7.

“Our ‘favorite,’ if you can call it that, was the current president, Mr. [Joe] Biden. But he was removed from the race, and he recommended all his supporters to support Ms. Harris. Well, we will do so – we will support her,” Putin said Thursday at the Eastern Economic Forum in Vladivostok. “She laughs so expressively and infectiously that it means that she is doing well.”

Question is, why do believe Putin is telling the truth, since Ukraine is not going to benefit from what Trump has suggested. Ukraine can't afford to speak frankly about who they prefer, but I guarantee you it's not Trump. Not unless Trump starts advocating an anti-Putin position.

Ukraine bought and paid for Biden. Trump was impeached for daring to investigate it.

There is no doubt on the planet that Putin wants Trump to win
No doubt unless you are Tanko ROTFL

anybody who thinks that if Trump gets in Putin will withdraw from Ukraine because Trump asks him to -

that's just not gonna happen

it's just one more trick up Putin's sleeve - he doesn't fear Trump or anybody else - but Trump likes him and Putin likes people who like him

but he won't dance because Trump plays him a tune - he knows he's much more powerful than Trump or any U.S. Prez who is unwilling to go to war to repel his invasion
