He says he realizes he will die if he doesn't. He also must know that his popularity isn't increasing because of Putin's popularity that stays steadily at around 80%.
Of interest though is the fact that Rachel Maddow, Chris Heyes, and last night Lawrence O'Donnell were all getting themselves confused over whether Navalny was having a little strike or Putin was starving him to death?
By far the biggest issue on this whole thing is the fact that America's hands are tied on further aggression against Russia until Russia gets rid of Putin and adopts Navalny as their new leader.
Doesn't seem to be happening any time soon.
Russia/Putin hate was put on hold during the Trump regime. Does Biden have any intention of trying to revive it to Cold war levels? It seems that America has too many of it's own domestic problems than to be trying to interfere with a peaceful Russia. Or a peaceful China for that matter!
Opinions?
