I am SHOCKED he hasn’t done something to us first, if you do not count the North Korea hackathon as Russia/China by proxy, and the first (test) step in an upcoming long line of “death by a thousand cuts” kind of thing.
Still far from that. Besides that would be nothing good, the outcome could be worse than Putinism and any chaos in a country with thousands of nukes would be dangerous...
The best scenario is to watch their economy being slowly grilled and about ~18 months from now it should be clear for Russian elites and many average Ivans that not only the guy is a damn idiot but the whole strategy of playing global superpower was foolish...
This is too hopeful. Either way, it would make no difference. His government is controlled by the FSB/KGB. If they string him up, he’ll just be replaced by the next head of the FSB or someone considered to be a useful replacement/figurehead.
If socialists took over the Russian healthcare system, made accessing proper medical treatment and medicine nearly impossible for the deathly ill and then forced part of the population to pay for the insurance of the other half of the population that is unwilling to work, would that trigger a coup?
How about asking the question...... will the Obama regime be removed by a military coup?
Or are Americans and our decaying sense of patriotism, justice, ideals.....etc.
Just rotting in swamps of our cultural decay.
If that is so....we deserve everything that is coming our way. Too bad for the moral, the kind, andvthe ethical ones amongst us.
If it continues long enough, though, we could see a popular movement (or one masquerading as one) promising to return prosperity if its leaders are given enough power. The Germans know all about that, but the Russians learned it first.
