The Psychopath threatens nuclear war

 Putin has invaded Ukraine.  It is a massive invasion.  And he threatens nuclear war if NATO or the United States interfere with his hideous intentions.
 
Please remember that this is the man that Trump admires and obeys.  And this is the man that FOX News Tucker Carlson defends.  
 
It seems clear to me that Putin intends to recapture the Balkan countries same as he wants to recapture Ukraine now.  He clearly wants to re-establish the borders of the defunct Soviet Union.  He has stated this many times.

Now is a good time to remember the terrible lesson of WWII - do not appease a psychopathic autocrat, it only encourages him to attack.
 
My hope is that Putin has made a self destroying mistake by strengthening the NATO-U.S. bond.  And wars never go the way the initiator expects, and Russia may find more difficulties in Ukraine than the psychopath expects, and the Russian people may turn on Putin and end his reign.
 
Or so I hope. 

Things are not good right now.
