End of US Empire? A thread 🧵
Vladimir Putin has ruled Russia since 1999 and is the 2nd longest serving current European President. You simply don’t survive that long if you don’t have a unique skill set. That’s why nobody should underestimate Putins strategic move in Ukraine.
Is it a setup? Putin has made demands to the US and NATO not to expand NATO closer to the Russian border and not to place weapon systems in neighboring countries. He counts on the arrogance of the US to send him a refusal. Putin may use this to justify the invasion of Ukraine.
What if this isn’t about Ukraine? The real target may be the fragile US economy. A new war in Europe will send shockwaves around global markets. The enormous bandaid of quantitive easing (endless money printing to prop up US markets) is going to burst. A crashing house of cards.
The timing seems perfect. The US is on the verge of economic collapse and has been for a while. One major upset to the markets and the US could face a depression like never before, taking the rest of the world into an economic hell hole for years to come.
It’s seems like an opportune moment to reshuffle the deck of global politics and markets. Ask yourself why Putin would risk global sanctions for invading Ukraine. I see a calculated move. This may be Putins checkmate to end US dominance without firing a single shot at the US.
Those who underestimate Putin make a mistake. The arrogance of US Empire seems blind to the enormous trap that Putin is setting. A new war in Europe will crash global markets. A crash that is probably going to be more than the US can handle. Could this be the end of US Empire?
