    Putin already had Wagner revolt over this war. And they’re paid to fight. You know what happened after a while in Vietnam? Troops started fragging the officers out of frustration. And those troops couldn’t get back to the U.S. easily. They weren’t near the U.S. border.

      They’re already killing their leaders. Quite a few instances of it happening. Once putin is completely out of prisoners and rural fodder, and he has to send the city people in, it’s going to get a lot worse for him
