    Putin might actually be delusional like Hitler when he “strategically” moved around armies that didn’t exist.
    I have suspected/speculated on this for a couple of years now, it seems to me Putin is delusional, and is a victim of his own lies and propaganda.
    The idea that if a lie is repeated often enough people will believe it. Apparently also work on the liar, we also see this with Trump IMO.
    Living a life of lies will make people end up unable to distinguish between lies and reality, because the lies become integrated and ingrained into their minds.

      I agree and the thought came to me with trump recently. He actually believes what he says. It’s delusion bordering on insanity and unfathomable that those are leaders of counties.
