He's an authoritarian "strong man". He can't allow himself to be perceived to lose.

    That's the paradox with these people.

    Actual strong men aren't afraid to admit mistakes.

    Behind all this strong men rhetoric always sits a lousy coward.

    Another problem with losers like him: That psychopath is living on a day to day base. Planning for anything longer has lost all use for him so he continues whatever keeps him alive for the day.

    Fun fact here is that the longer he refuses to give up the harder the fall will be, for him and his country.

  • The fun fact here is that Putin is entirely aware of that and intends to stay in office for life. If it makes you feel better, console yourself with the knowledge that he'll make sure the Russian people do everything they can to protect him from that fall.
