I wouldn't put money on him falling anytime soon, Michelle.

And i don't think it'd be a gentle/fair rebuild either. We had that opportunity when the Soviet Union crashed but Russia was allowed to suffer for ten years and Western economists and loans helped create the gangster oligarch system that is there today and led to Putin, who also got glowing press in the early 2000s.

We'll see how it plays out. Praying for a peace deal.

Thanks for the read and the words!
