Since before this war began, everything that vladimir putin thinks is going to happen in this war is not. it is going to backfire horribly on him. look at the tape. we said it time and time again before this war started. that press conference, mike, may have been perhaps the greatest example of just how this idiotic war on his part has backfired in putin s face. well, it is certainly the latest evidence of the complete underestimation vladimir putin had in approaching ukraine. this is a war that s been going on at least 20 years, largely in putin s mind as well as on the ground in the last five to seven years. over the weekend boris johnson walking with the president of ukraine, clearly, openly, bravely, was a significant sign this is, in addition to the horrors of the war, one of the great human dimension stories that we ve seen in years.
