I think Putin has lost the propaganda war, already.

World opinion is consolidating against him. Smartphones are bringing the war to the world, real time. He may attempt to continue his military campaign, but I see this will have diminishing returns very quickly.

Now Trump is trying to take credit for the Javelins....Putin must be pissed that his puppet is starting to dance to a new tune.

That speech was way out there for most-
nothing believable about it.
And, calling Ukrainians nazis… 😳

real time communications is not conducive to dictatorship, fear, advantage ... people don't want war. Governments should figure that out.

Disrupting communications will be the 21st century battleground.

He is a total fucking narcissistic idiot. He absolutely hates that Ukraine & Zalenski is being cheered on by so many millions of people around the world. All that adulation that trump craves is going, once again, to one of his nemeses.
