At approximately the 5:00 minute mark this young man says a lot.
“I think he’s a good leader but he’s not the best manager.”
While any pro Putin remarks and opinions, in all forms of the media, mostly focus on his leadership capabilities, much less is said about his management skills. Management is relegated to others through the various government departments as in most national governments, but does he have a good sense of what’s going on overall? Does he provide constructive advice to each department? Or, does he leave it up to the department heads? Does any other national leader excel at both? Is there a line between the two? Or, a grey area, big or small?
How many national leaders, past or present, have been both? I think Canada’s first prime minister John A. MacDonald may have been one such leader in spite of many outside interferences. What (not who) we have now will go down in history as the worst with no one to date even coming close. I’m not exaggerating either.
Please feel free to dive in and tear this apart.
I perked up at that comment as well. Very insightful. As most of us have noticed, leaders are almost entirely figureheads. One of the differences where Putin is concerned is his long involvement in KGB & FSB, making him even more dangerous than most. He makes GWHB’s involvement with CIA look almost amateurish.
I kindly disagree. Bushes run big part of American DS for closed to 40 years. Putin is in power only for 20. Both of those men and their families are a cancer on humanity.
Yes cancer! I wonder what I’d do? Would I go ballistic, no nukes, or increase aid to former satellites lol being threatened on the level of Kim North Korea Un by Rasputin is alarming beyond containability. It’s been my belief that the space force was announced because we needed cover for a secret system of non nuclear space based kinetic weapons and laser satellite killers powered by nuclear batteries. Not what we’d like to have above us ya know!! Very secret but undetectable now that it’s detectable becomes irrelevant as it’s an announced program, we don’t parade our weapons out in front of the masses for cheers but that doesn’t mean they’re not up there we already figured the missing trillions went off planet right, not a inflationary iota, yet we see it was spent had no influence on consumer prices we have nothing but debt to show for it, indexing debt I remind you, my favorite place to chow in 1969, the Hoosier menu I saved I know I collect menus, weird, it’s a 69 dated dinner $1.00 works soup and salad and coffee or buttermilk endless dinner rolls, the magnet!!, potatoes and vegetables and dessert you get it one buck for breaded veal or turkey etc1.50 for a 12 oz sirloin!! Christ 69?!! It hurts thinking back I collected soda bottles turned them in on Mondays the parks full after my paper route I’d make pinball money heck I had a Steve McQueen outfit lol desert boots Levi cords pacific trails jacket vogue Steve McQueen ruled! Paper route money bought me everything I needed and soda bottles fed me. Try that today!! Lol our money has zero value and our right to use the money is subject to…subject to what our government wants, who gets to use it, how much they use, all subject to, you have no right to it…but at 9 years old I was literally rich!! Lol my mitt my skis my Schwinn and my Dawes?!! My taco mini bike my Honda… all from a newspaper route and soda bottles …I look back and remember rent food etc a dollar was very precious today it’s of no value replaced by cards digits ebt it’s not earnings it’s not my world…
