In reply to the discussion: Russia says Ukraine tried to attack Putin's residence but Kyiv says Moscow is lying [View all]Irish_Dem
(79,752 posts)27. I think this is possible. Or Putin is in deep hiding and sending out doubles.
It is well known that Putin uses body doubles.
Putin has been in obvious bad health for years now.
He could be dead or in very poor health.
Someone else is doing the public appearances.
And the generals, the oligarchs, and the Russian people are turning against Putin.
He could be in hiding because monsters like him are cowards.

I fail to see how that would not be appropriate at any point in the last 4 years?? Ukraine gets short-shrived constantly

If Ukraine did that, I would have no problem with it. Putin has tried to decapitate Ukraine many times, so all's fair.
