Putin is going to do whatever Putin wants. The era of the United States unilateral slaughter is over and it will die violently attempting to maintain it. I predict 70 million less Americans in the next 20 years.
Hope those 70million aren't among the 80 million Americans who are workers in which are holding up the 140 million Americans who are on some sort of government assistance.. Ouch!
Who will pay the bills then ? Oh that's right the government will, because it will be a communist nation by then.
