Wharfie,
He can't afford the bill.
But can he keep the war going forever, even in a scaled back way?

Because the only way he can continue selling the war to his own people is if he continually shows forward progress, even if it's just a few hundred square kilometers of farmland every month.

If forward momentum stops, or even reverses in a small but significant amount, he'll be forced into a decision. Either scale up the war (again), or lose his Z-nationalist base of support that is keeping him in power.

Key thing here is that he still needs to keep 50% of RuZZians in a depoliticized state of being. They have to keep trusting that PooTin will take care of all the political sausage-making. They have to believe that, as food prices rise, and as more and more of their fellow RuZZians return home in body bags or debilitating injuries, that it'll all work out in the end.

That's why I don't really take PooTin seriously when he claims he's going to scale back military spending next year. He only made that claim in an awkward attempt to portray NATO as the "aggressors" here, but in doing so, he revealed a weakness.

And that's creating a lot of "limp noodles" among the PooTin cucks ...
