he could literally pull out anytime he wanted and claim victory. His supporters lap up anything he tells them.
Trump should be allowed to call himself president so long as he never steps foot in Washington and promises only to say it on ONAN and Fox.
And since he runs the state propaganda/news stations, nothing would stop him from claiming that they successfully killed all the Nazis in Ukraine. "We went in and killed all the Nazis so we're pulling all our troops out."
Of course, they would need to give back the territories that they annexed as well as all the children that they stole. Not to mention pay reparations for all the damage that they did/suffering they caused. Again, though, Putin could spin this to his people. "We only temporarily annexed those areas to denazify them and always planned on returning them to Ukraine. Same with the kids. And since we accidentally destroyed some infrastructure in 'helping' Ukraine rid itself of Nazis, we're generously helping them rebuild."
Of course, nobody but those who buy Russian propaganda will believe this, but Putin just needs the appearance of everything going according to his plans.
Nah, Trump openly claiming it without repercussions is EXACTLY how we still have MAGAts following him. "Stop the steal" is functionally identical to, "I'm still president."
He has a paranoiac disorder. He won't trust his propaganda channels to listen to him.
That tracks. These peoples are beyond rationality.
Another thing is, access to Black Sea is too juicy military, and now with more ports in Ukraine, also commercially. Add to it the wheat Ukraine can grow and Russian pride. He probably already promised these things and human resources to his moronic oligarchs. He won't take his words back.
