My theory is that Putin is waiting on the US presidential elections. To see if Trump will win and back him in his warmongering.

Not just that, but also if Republicans in Congress can withhold aid to Ukraine, it’s essentially the same thing. Ukraine can’t fight this war effectively without our help and our weapons/ammo.

He will use everything he's got to affect the election. It will be worse than 2016. Not just promoting trump, but discrediting Democrats and promoting 3rd party candidates that could steal some Democrats' votes.

democrats don't own the votes. they need to earn them. if a so-called "third party" earns the votes, it's the democrats failing to earn it, not the third party stealing it.

47% of the US wants Trump as president. Sounds like you do too.

i don't, and only a dishonest reading of what i'm saying could lead you to that conclusion.
