- In an interview for the FRONTLINE documentary “Putin’s Road to War,” Kori Schake of the American Enterprise Institute shares her take on Vladimir Putin’s decision-making in the lead-up to the war on Ukraine.
"This was a miscalculation of Napoleonic magnitude," she tells FRONTLINE. "And one of the things we should be worried about now is Vladimir Putin being a rat trapped in a corner and willing to do lots of damage to everything else on his way to failure."
Schake is the director of foreign and defense policy studies at the American Enterprise Institute. She previously served at the U.S. State Department, the Department of Defense and the National Security Council. She is the author of several books, most recently "America vs the West: Can the Liberal World Order Be Preserved?"
The following interview was conducted by FRONTLINE's Mike Wiser on March 4, 2022. It has been edited for clarity and length.
“Putin’s Road to War” premieres March 15, 2022. Watch the trailer now: • Putin's Road to War (t...

President Biden(s!) is asking Congress for $13 billion for Ukraine. Where is the money for securing the US Southern Border? Thousands of people from all over the world, including Russians, invade the USA through the border Democrats are not interested in securing!!
Why did not the Obama/Biden give these sanctions when Russia invaded the Ukraine Crimea region in 2014???? The small sanctions implemented gave Putin the green light for his current actions!! Why was Hunter Biden on the Board of Directors of a Ukranian energy company for $50,000 a month?? What about the evidence on Hunter Biden's laptop and his Chinese Communist connections!?!?
@@guyfawkesuThe1 In the Ukraine, the USA is the invader, 100%. The USA (controlled by the private Rothschild central bank cartel) imposed a coup in Ukraine back in 2014. The USA FORCED this situation, they appointed Zelenskyy, a puppet president (no election), then encouraged him to imprison the opposition political party leader and shut down 3 TV stations critical of the Zelenskyy. View *'The Jimmy Dore Show'* for an easy to understand analysis. Jimmy and The Grayzone’s Max Blumenthal discuss the situation in the video, *'Ukraine War Driving Rampant Censorship At Home'.*
In 2014, the west poked the Bear. In 2022, Russia has poked a pack of hyenas.
Propaganda
Can watch this... but not that lol.
How about doing an expose on how the West, and Globalists, like Obama, Biden, and so on, got the world to this point, where they've forced Russia's hand, and created this war? The West is at fault. Globalism is a failure. Russia made it clear years ago, that Ukraine was not going to be forced into NATO, without armed conflict. This war is completely the fault of Western Globalist elites.
Love that Frontline puts their full interviews online. It sets a new standard in journalism.
It's old. It' propaganda, nothing more.
@@virgorising7388 No, it's not propaganda at all, and by releasing the full interviews they later condense into a documentary they've proven that it's not even selectively edited.
@@paoloadam agree. those full interviews are amazing and lend a new level of credibility.
It's garbage propaganda. These are career government workers who know the script. Don't be fooled, they just bash non deep state people to keep their funding.
Half of what is coming out of that woman's mouth is propaganda. The other half is true.
I really enjoy these long form interviews. Thank you for sharing them.
Me too!

Ignore the Russian troll-bot neutron. He’s blasting comment replies with this same cut/paste paragraph. Definitely a troll-bot
I really enjoyed Ms. Schake's assessment of Putin. She quite often expressed that she could not know what he was thinking, and I appreciate her honesty and knowledge of her limits, and yet providing so much great insight. Thank you!
PBS and Frontline along with 60 minutes are true National Treasures... Thank You All 😊
More like true propaganda machines. Corporate and State run media cannot be trusted.
Have the courts not found that there was no evidence of Russian collusion during the elections?

For example, calling out this bullshit propaganda on PBS.
@@theknowall2232 Ah, perhaps they don't have sarcasm in your country?
I am aware of the Maidon Revolution and the cultural divisions within Ukraine. The U.S. is going to drag this conflict out to bleed Russia via economic sanctions at the cost of Ukrainian civilians. They should take the deal Russia is offering.
I also think Putin is delusional. It seems that the seizure of bank reserves has taken him by surprise, no? Reports of casualties sketchy, but the invasion doesn't seem to be going as planned.
I saw on Mint News YT channel the Zelensky government used clusterbombs against civilians in Donetsk yesterday...
I really hope, you know... for the sake of humanity's interest, PBS uploads this episode without the usual regional restrictions.
Are there? I thought this was not the case for anything on PBS. I am regionally restricted when it comes to some U.S. content, even just The Daily Show's clips are unavailable here in Italy, but PBS is a public broadcaster rather than a commercial undertaking, I have never see them restrict anything here and assumed this applied everywhere...
I thought that was something that TH-cam and other platforms were enforcing just to get permission to exist in countries with censorship. Is there something I'm missing. ~~~ BTW, I've been watching Frontline's The Putin Files from a few years ago. I think I've gotten through about 12 hours of these interviews, and they are fascinating, high-quality, in-depth analysis of Putin and his relationships with Trump and others. I highly recommend them.
I know that one of the Putin videos is restricted in Canada even though Canadians contribute to the PBS - since many can hear the stations (NPR) locally. Not sure who restricts them - PBS or TH-cam
@@TesserId As Google Support states: "Some TH-cam videos may not be available in your country/region for the following reasons: Video owners have chosen to make their content available only to certain countries/regions (usually due to licensing rights) TH-cam may block specific content to comply with local laws."
So both restrictions exist, but the one you refer to is only an issue in certain countries and applies only to specific content their governments deem objectionable while self-restrictions happen everywhere and involve all kind of videos including the most innocent, usually of out commercial interests (such as the desire to sell broadcasting rights to foreign entities).
@@Sofia-dl9vw Such claims are a bit dubious, since anyone trying to access the video in question from Canada would know why, as TH-cam displays an appropriate message such as "the uploader has not made this video available in your country" (if PBS has uploaded it) or "this video contains content from PBS who has blocked it on copyright grounds" (if someone else uploaded it).
What a great interview! What a powerful moment when Kori says: "He is not invoking Russian history, he is rewriting Russian history in attempt to rationalize his choices. ...What is he doing is propagandizing Russian history in an attempt to justify and support his own choices."
I am watching this series at the same time doing refreshers of the Putin Files which I watched when the series first came out and the Putin files has aged amazingly. Everything they say is as relevant as it was 4 years ago.
You mean like when the prior administration told Germany that their addiction to Putin's Petroleum was a prison, and Angela Merkl laughed at him?
Try Oliver Stone's interviews with Putin, and Stone's "Ukraine on Fire" instead of lies and propaganda from PBS and US mainstream media.
@@debbiedogs1 Putin has proven many times over - many, many times - he's a liar and not to trust a single thing he says. The Putin Files are fantastic - regardless of what media published them, they're truthful analysis from experts in their fields.
That's how you know the people they interviewed are actual experts on the topic, and not just talking out of their asses.

Putin should've learned not to invade countries for no reason but he got away doing it with all the other countries and thought he would get away with attacking Ukraine. Apparently he was wrong. This could be the end of Putin. A country too far.
Thank you for sharing the beautiful interview. Appreciate it

Brilliant commentary.
Why is it odd that a man who is known for poisoning his adversaries wouldn't want to be close to people during a pandemic. I feel like his actions are par for the course. It is 100% normal for him to move and engage with others with caution. Poisoning people will make you paranoid.

@@b-dogtheman4578 Um, no. Pardon my crassness, but he stopped just short of fellating the man, for crying out loud.

Thank you 🙏
Russia has always been friendly to Ukraine. Since the collapse of the USSR, Russia has always helped Ukraine: benefits, preferences, selling resources cheaper than other countries, and giving favorable loans. Russia has treated Ukraine as a brotherly country. And how did Ukraine (its leadership) repay the favor? That it wanted to join NATO, a military organization, the whole raison d'être of which is aimed at confrontation with Russia. Which in its latest documents declared Russia to be the enemy.
This is a real betrayal, a stab in the back. Why did Ukraine want American military bases and weapons, first in Crimea, then on the border with Russia?
Why was it necessary to indulge the Ukrainian nationalists?
There are no more than 20% of the population (and they are mainly concentrated in the western regions, the former Galicia), who want nothing to do with the "Muscovites", or, incidentally, with the Ukrainians themselves. The remaining 80% of the population of Ukraine has always been in favor of friendship and partnership with Russia.
P.S. Find it in TH-cam - "Max Blumenthal: US is Arming Neo-Nazis in Ukraine"
@@hdf6kr74j3d Russia has always been friendly to Ukraine? Are you out of your fucking mind? These comments are fucking hilariously purposefully misinforming and misleading. Jesus Christ.

She corrects the question, love it. Great reporting as usual PBS.
Putin uses the analogy of the rat trapped in a corner from his experience as a child. He got one thing right: the rat part. He however seem to forget that the rat never wins it still gets smashed.
Are you the rat?
@@jakebredthauer5100 Is that suppose to be a comeback. Do better. You're shadow boxing.
@@beltigussin81
Prior to war one should determine culpability.
I noticed ambiguity.
@@jakebredthauer5100 Culpability? For what? For attacking a country at peace. For the insane destruction of cities where just days ago were orderly societies. For killing thousands of people and sending refugees fleeing to the four winds? What ambiguity? Who's to blame? Well, make your case.
@@beltigussin81
The ambiguity was that you did not say who the rat was. That was the reason for my request for clarification.
The reason Russia needed to invade was to defend Russia from Ukraine, NATO and US. The West had been pushing against Russia for so long, it was like Russia was a cornered animal, about to be smashed. The invasion was pre-emptive. A cornered rat is not culpable for attacking. Attacking is the cornered rat's only chance of survival. You should probably examine the quality of your sources of intelligence.

@@nicholasjohnson778 Kori Schake has held several high positions in the U.S. Defense and State Departments and on the National Security Council.

It is they who impose and control the financial sanctions imposed on naughty countries who don't bow to the bankers' will.

It is a very good understanding of what is going on in our part of Europe. I recommend reading a book "Second-Hand Time by Svetlana Alexievich. This give an inner view of all post soviet societies and long-term repercussions of it.
you should probably be a little more skeptical and intelligent about things you hear on TV.
I missed the part where evil Bill Clinton told Ukraine to give up their nukes while he was in the oval office with Piggy Lewinski.
Growing up in the cold war era " I now realize what a utopia " I was living in . There are Nuclear missiles aimed at every major city in the USA and have been for years now.This is the closest we've been to WW3 and it seems we're getting closer " it ain't looking good folks "
I agree we are all in danger with Putin in the world. Seems like time for the world to go ahead and make war against Putin with conventional weapons to rescue Ukraine and demand the arrest of Putin for war crimes. May need to take this war to Moscow and flatten the Kremlin.
This is really scary what it can lead to....I think we are the closest to nuclear war than ever... obviously, Putin cannot start the "first strike" by himself only, he needs agreement of his generals, but even if they disagree, he could have just replaced them....but maybe he is only bluffing, who knows, if his nuclear forces are in such a bad state like his army, then we have nothing to worry about... but then, it's just a speculation, we cannot underestimate it, I don't really know, ask Gary Kasparov, he warned us long time ago, how dangerous Putin is... The world must unite and come up with some solution, I have really no idea, how to solve it but there must be a solution, that doesn't end up in disaster, I hope for the best, greeting from Czech Republic 🙂

Thank you Frontline for the documentary.
Thank you for spending the time to create this content
Under the heading, "Things having parallels, or a familiar vibe": Putin and his top officials ringed 'round him, with each in turn addressing him not out of honesty, but out of fear of the man; and Trump sitting with his Cabinet officers and directors in chairs spreading right and left and returning to the grand leader, with each in turn voicing praise of Trump in ever escalating superlatives.
"A miscalculation of Nepoleanic proportion." - There you go Putin! That's you.
That is a great quote. Napoleon had a winning streak going at that time and thought he could do no wrong either. He was wrong but a lot of his army died yet he was the first one back in Paris while his army was dead and frozen all over the Russian steppes. Putin is going to leave a lot of dead Russian soldiers all over Ukraine.
Her way of talking reminds me of my teacher, calmed, poised and articulate
Thank you.
very respectable opinion. this lady knows what she's talking about.
Like Americans in Vietnam, Iraq, and Afghanistan, and Russia in Afghanistan, history is not on Putin's side. Putin, even if he gets military victory, will pay a heavy price and cost too much to stay in Ukraine. America and EU should try to deter Russia and not escalate.
You’re suggesting more appeasement? Couldn’t disagree more. All this western reaction OUGHT to have happened in 2014. Putin won’t stop until somebody stands up and punches him in the face.
@@miklmiklmtrcycl6009 Not appeasement at all. Appeasement or escalation is a false choice. There is a fine line between deterrence and escalation. If the US escalates, you won't die, but Ukrainian people suffer even more. Think of how Afghans did against Russia and then against US and NATO, think of how the Vietnamese kicked the US out of Vietnam. You have to be strategic, knowing his nuclear power. Don't forget China pledged "no limit" in relations with Russia. Chinese businesses did not close shops in Russia. WW III is not in the interest of anyone, but unrestricted escalation may lead to that.
@@elbarca223 I don’t think the formal established leadership of NATO or even the US are going to decide. I’m thinking the baltics, Romania, Poland et al have seen that probably the place to fight Putin and to challenge his gang is in Ukraine and not inside the nato frontier which is absolutely what will happen if he wins Ukraine. I’m also leaning towards Finland and Sweden deciding to join. It’s going to take everyone to shut down Putin, but it will be the former Warsaw Pact that lead. I also think the west should stop talking about deposing Putin and just talk about shutting down putins imperial ambitions. Deposing Putin Is a Russian choice. But nato can do things to influence that choice. There is no future for china in Russia. Chinas future is selling to Europe Japan and North America. Despite all the bluster china will choose the market they want and that’s in the “west”The relationship pledge was before putins off the hinge invasion, The Chinese are not married to that idea.
This is actually going to be far, far, faaaaar worse for Russia than Afghanistan was for them or the U.S., and far worse than Vietnam was for the U.S.
I don't think we are getting
accurate information
on how hopeless it is
for Ukraine to resist.
She's a wonderful teacher!
Well done, Dr Kori is well versed in the NATO’s Rules-Based Global Order controlled by technocracy. She talks about it all the time. 😘
There's quite a lot that is left out.
I missed the part where she advised what NIMBY, I mean NATO's accomplished mission was.
I find it poetic justice that Putin the poisoner would live out his final days totally paranoid
He was responding
to real serious threats.
@@jakebredthauer5100
What threat?! NATO? Hahahahaha!
The countries joining NATO do so voluntarily and are doing it for exactly this reason. NATO is not a threat to Russia as it’s a DEFENSIVE pact. NATO would never attack Russia without Russia attacking first. No one would be insane enough to be the aggressor against Russia since they have nuclear weapons.
This invasion highlights EXACTLY why Russia’s neighbors are wanting to join NATO; they’re scared of being next. What NATO threatens is Russia’s ability to control and possibly invade the nations around Russia. NATO threatens Putin’s ability to recreate an empire of USSR style defensive buffer states around Russia. That’s it. As long as no NATO country is attacked, it’s not a threat to Russia. But Putin is so paranoid and set in a Cold War mindset, he can’t get it out of his head that Europe and America want to gang up on him. The reality is that Europe and America don’t care about Russia as long as they don’t attack anyone. It’s the classical problem with narcissistic, paranoid people; they think they’re so important that everyone is against them, when in reality no one cares and they just don’t want the insane, narcissistic paranoid person to attack them.
The other part that is important to understand is that Russia wants control of the many pipelines passing through Ukraine from Russia to Europe (which Russia has to pay duties on) is paramount. And of course Ukraine not only has significant mineral resources, natural gas deposits have been recently discovered in Eastern Ukraine and the Black Sea; the exact area where Russia is supposedly helping separatists as well as the area off the Crimean Peninsula. The whole thing is about Putin’s desire for an EU style economic bloc of his own that creates a defensive barrier for Russia, and exploitation of Ukraine’s resources. Huge surprise, eh? “Nazis” my arse!
@@keirfarnum6811 The US under the NWO has already invaded plenty of countries to build a world government. Will they give Russia a pass and allow it to remain a sovereign country? No.
The US had 15 bio weapons labs in Ukraine. It was a military build-up for an invasion.
@@jakebredthauer5100 They were not bio weapons labs. They were bio research facilities. There's a difference, and it's telling you can't tell what that is. Your assumption that Ukraine was planning to invade a country with enough nukes ready to launch at anyone in retaliation, and send us into a nuclear winter as a consequence, is just a moronic excuse to invade a country. Were they researching dangerous stuff? Yes. You need to prepare yourself for detection and treatments of such weapons when your neighbor, Russia, has weapons that they did not dispose of when they agreed to at the Chemical Weapons Convention of 1997, and are not afraid to use them on anyone as they've shown.
@@jakebredthauer5100 What threats were those Jake?
Putin's nuts - stop asking if he's rational. Start worrying if he'll push the button ....
Putin isn't nuts. He's crazy like a fox which is why he got to his position and stayed there for 20 years. He definitely misjudged the Ukraine invasion which is different from being crazy. He had delusions of grandeur in relation to Ukraine.
He is using nuclear weapons as a threat to keep the west out of it as much as possible. If he actually uses nuclear weapons then he would be crazy but like when you corner a rat you never know what the rat will do to survive.
I hope that Putin and his advisers are all watching this. You all realize that Putin is just one man right? You could eliminate a big problem if you chose to. It would make everyone's life better.
🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽
Which of his advisers would you prefer to become the new "President" of Russia?
@@deusexaethera that would be up to the Russian people to decide. Whatever actually happens, we'll cross that bridge when we get to it. In the meantime, the war on Ukraine would probably stop.
According to another interview, Putin has 2-3 cronies that are worse than him that also needs to be eliminated. This will be a good cleansing and liberate Russia.
@@deusexaethera it certainly wouldn't be somebody with such a heavy world view of nostalgia for the Soviet Union regardless of who it is. They are unlikely to be 70 when they take office. So we have half a chance at a less dangerous leader.
Very well done. Insightful. Bravo!
"The ideal subject of totalitarian rule is not the convinced Nazi or the convinced Communist, but people for whom the distinction between fact and fiction (i.e., the reality of experience) and the distinction between true and false (i.e., the standards of thought) no longer exist."
-Hannah Arendt (1906-1975), The Origins of Totalitarianism (1951)
An incredible pleasure to listen to this lovely, well-informed and deeply thoughtful woman... "incredible" here means that while one admires what she says, it's also incredibly chilling... talk about cognitive dissonance; this lovely woman is warning about a possible nuclear winter descending upon all the creatures of our earth as a result of one trapped Russian rat leaping at what it sees as its tormentor... that leap will be into nuclear war
Putin talks, Putin takes action.
Very deadly and very dangerous!
☠☠☠
Very good presentation 👏🏻
Brilliant analysis
I agree with everything this woman thinks and says. One in the same. A great communicator

This really gives me hope. I'm grateful to see Putin and his mafian infrastructure finally being understood by western world. One thing I feel is still not stressed enough is how powerful putin's propoganda is, and the role of Stalin still living in russians' minds as an image of great leader rather than hitler like criminal
Excellent points, both of them. I get the risk, of Stalinism as a religion, for russias future. The bigger risk for all of us is the leveraging of social media and it’s capitalistic nature (and so many other media) to spread political lies.
Putin has been understood by a lot of people in the West for a long time, but there has been a populist movement of absolute morons who are “anti-intellectual” and somehow think experts are to not be trusted.
@@miklmiklmtrcycl6009 Kori Schake has held several high positions in the U.S. Defense and State Departments and on the National Security Council. She was a foreign-policy adviser to the McCain-Palin 2008 presidential campaign. Therefore Schake is a 100% lackey for the establishment. Politically aware people know that the establishment has leaders who are owners of the Rothschild central bank cartel, they control our monetary system. It is they who impose and control the financial sanctions imposed on naughty countries who don't bow to the bankers' will.
Unlike Schake, Prof John Mearsheimer isn't completely controlled by the establishment, he explains the politics in a recent interview, TH-cam video, v=Nbj1AR_aAcE. Mearsheimer is highly qualified and gives a very detailed account of how the conflict was forced and why it was forced.
@@theknowall2232 can you hear yourself? You are the embarrassing uncle. I’m embarrassed for you and I don’t even know you. This ultra right abject distrust of education and experience and preference for a president that didn’t even know Ukraine was a country. Ffs.
@@theknowall2232 These are all Putin’s lies and propaganda that he has told his people. The exact opposite is true. It is funny how there is not a single scholar or intelligence agent from any country who researches this who doesn’t conclude: “These are all lies. Putin is lying and the opposite is true”. You have either fallen for his lies or, more likely, are part of his propaganda machine. Only a propagandists or a populist fool would use “The Jimmy Dore Show” as a Reference and ignore every expert analyst. This populism is foolish. You people would call Albert Einstein “an elitist” and scoff at him, and be more inclined to believe “Jimmy Dore proves physics and mathematics is all bullshit, and even showed 2+2 = 5 in an interview with Hans Roogledorf”, even if every PhD expert mathematician in the world says Hans is a hack. Everything isn’t explained by a conspiracy theory, but everyone who thinks it is has a problem with paranoia.
Bright & informative interview
It is surreal insanity.
Those officials were visually, viscerally terrified.
Should we be comforted or concerned that Russia's nukes might be at the same level of functioning as their military?
Maybe it's time for humanity to end
yes ! definetely yes
no one is quite THAT stupid in Russia in NOT choosing the BEST functional bomb to go FIRST
I'd think that Putin has ordered recurrent checking of his first line nuclear systems since 2014 assuming that his actions could lead to their use.
Hehe, Putin is rewriting Russian history is he?
Other countries have an unpredictable future, Russia has an unpredictable past.
-- Russian proverb.
Yep.
Now he thinks that he can reform the Soviet Union by defeating Joe Biden's 'border czar' now turned Russian Czar, Kamala the Terrible.
“The future is certain; it is only the past that is unpredictable.” - old Soviet joke
Can I see the meeting uncut cuz all they show is short clips of it
Ms.Schake, thank you for spelling out what Putin as a mafia boss. He is a crook who should be arrested and tried in court and go to jail; a life sentence.
weird , 1:20 "he humiliate his intelligence adviser" , and 1:40 "it's apparently prerecorded", if it was prerecorded why the video released that way ???
Because this is how he wants to represent himself to the world, but foremost to the russian people; a 'strong' man that doesn't tolerate any opposition. Fear has always been the tool for any totalitarian regime.
Thank you, I really didnt want to know anything about the man, but since the start of the war I'm an expert.
If it wasn't for warfare, my geography knowledge would suck.
Unite and save Europe! Close the skies in Ukraine!
I love FRONTLINE PBS!
As the value of the ruble plummets, VladiPOO is desperately paying double rates at ineffectual Russian troll farms.
I hope that the people of Ukraine and Russia
come out of this with the head of
Tsar Vlad the Intriguer/Invader

What would you say was
the motive for The Invasion?
@@jakebredthauer5100 i don't know Jake. What do you think is the motive for Putin invading his peaceful neighbor Ukraine. Was he nazi hunting?
He noticed that much of the world was against Russia in their words and in their deeds. Ukraine was in danger of falling to NATO which would seriously damage Russia's security. Ukraine has Russia's only warm-water ocean port.
Kid Mohair (above) is an example. I suppose he was hostile prior to the invasion also.
After the fall of the Soviet Union 30 years ago, NATO made agreements to Russia not to move eastward towards Russia's borders. It is indisputable that NATO lied. Today NATO countries border Russia and USA missile systems sit on Russia's doorstep. To counter nuclear missiles directed at Moscow there must be a distance limit for security and the Ukraine border is too close.
Russia has been airing its security concerns for years but they are ignored. Big-money is in control. The USA were funded to organize a coup in 2014, ultimately financed by the cabal who have $billions at their disposal because they control the central banks. The coup in the Ukraine is explained in great detail in the documentary. When the coup was over the USA appointed the unelected puppet, current President Volodymyr Zelensky. As expected, Ukraine joining NATO was then proposed.
Would the U.S allow Russian missiles on its border? Not a chance. Putin has been talking about this NATO aggression for years. He has been more than patient. In December Putin and Lavrov sent written proposals expressing changes take place to ensure Russia's security, like removal of weapon systems (remember NATO moved towards Russia's borders not vice versa). These proposals have been rejected. Russia has been backed into a corner. Ukraine has a long history with Russia, Kiev once being Russia's capital.
Watching from Australia. Blocked from watching full documentary. Sections of doco are being blocked as I type.
I do enjoy these series, it is vital to get the best information from the most important people who have studied the subject the closest to the situation. Now add Malcolm Nance to sting the F,sB with a lil gotcha guys intel. 😉
Put 1(one) n
is his name in our circles. Because we have seen it happen in insidious ways world wide.
Great
Great explanation
I doubt he cares if his people like him or support him. He's obviously in his own detached world. I don't see the value in trying to figure him out.
👍🏼
I disagree. I think he does care if Russian people support him. The US has had a psychological profile on world leaders ever since Hitler because it's good to understand your enemies as well as your friends psychological makeup so you can plan strategy on how to deal with them.
He's either a narcissist or sociopath. Everything he does will come through his personality disorder.
Great interview - she really knows her stuff.
On point!
Thank you AEI for speaking highly of President Biden and stating the principles of the many Russian errors.
Bravo to the women speakers who valiantly speak Truths regarding the ruthless -man. I hope he doesn’t go after them and hurt them.
An obsequious comment lacking in critical thinking. View a presentation by Prof. John Mearsheimer'.
I love your thinking Lady,,,,,,tell me more 🇨🇦
Fascinating!
