    Jeet Heer Retweeted Anton Troianovski

    Interesting thread. There are signs here and there that big swaths of Russia, ranging from big business to ordinary citizens, are unenthusiastic about Putin's adventurism. But Putin's pretty good at clamping down on civic opposition.https://twitter.com/antontroian/status/1496892253171855362 …

    Another extraordinary televised Kremlin meeting, this one with oligarchs. The head of the industrialists' lobby group tells Putin to avoid wrecking the Russian economy further in responding to Western sanctions; Putin responds describing today's invasion as a "necessary measure." pic.twitter.com/4jwQG1fmJM

        They look like putins military, all dressed in similar blue suits. These men have managed to put away fortunes and STILL suppress or keep their people poor who work for them. These are men who own homes in different countries and store money off shore and own yachts and planes

        Hopefully this all ends up with Putin's Ceausescu moment.

        Those "signs" contradict to polling though

        Is Putin still sitting alone, yards away from them separated by that carpet runner?

        I wonder if our oligarchs can see themselves sitting in chairs like this being told by Trump that the economy isn’t as important as his legacy.

        I sincerely doubt Putin really cares about anybody elses opinion on well anything. Either you do what you're told or you get discarded. There clearly i time when he was listening to more reasonable advisers but that time has passed and it's never coming back.

        There are balances to be maintained. Some of these guys could raise private armies.
