Holy Shit, 2 or 3

The lesson that is being learned by the Russians, the Chinese and friends of theirs right now. And, it is too bad that it has to be learned this way, but that aspect goes way back in the annals of humanity. Hopefully, they will learn, quickly, the lessons at the Billionaire level, and it will trickle down to the muscle. The problem is, Putin thought he was both, but he could never surrender the life he lived from age 20 to 35. He embraces the muscle aspect even to the end?

He took a step that was ill advised for the money aspects of his wellbeing, in an attempt to get a higher spot for himself via the assets that Ukraine would provide.  He did the bean counting, but underthought the retardation of his worth that could occur. More so, though, are the Billionaires he likes to hang with, and those he would like to hang with. He is learning the lesson that Trump taught so many lenders, such that they quit doing business with him.

Putin is turning himself into the Nation that Trump’s past actions indicates can happen when your hand is overplayed repeatedly. Putin did not understand the amount of monetary control that would be exercised against him. After all, Putin was allowed to visit the big boy’s country club, but he was never going to be considered as a member. He was trying to, allegorically, create his own country club, as Trump has done. None of the really big members would go to such a club as now exposed.

His level of support, economically, is fading and it will be interesting to see if Putin ever understands his situation. Trump seems not to have ever made any realization, until taught so in court. Let’s hope that Putin sees the mistake and accepts his fate, upon the hope of merely surviving himself, which is, after all, the only thing in play now. Truly, that is the hand Putin has to play at this point.
