    There are very few people who I would wish this to be true about (not even Trump!!). Putin is one of them. Having said that, my default view on hearing stuff like this is that it is more than likely wishful thinking.

      Is it bad to kind of hope this happens to trump? Asking for a friend.

We cannot expect to experience the blessing of faith by standing inactive on the sidelines any more than we can experience the benefits of health by sitting on a sofa watching sporting events on television and giving advice to the athletes. And yet for some, “spectator discipleship” is a preferred if not primary way of worshipping." -Pres. Uchtdorf

            • As someone noted in a response, a rumor isn't confirmed until it is denied.

              Does this one have legs?

              For all this His anger is not turned away, but His hand is stretched out still.

              Not long ago an obituary appeared in the Salt Lake Tribune that said the recently departed had "died doing what he enjoyed most—watching BYU lose."

                Kind of? Him croaking would be an absolute win for America.

                  • If Putin wanted to put rumors to rest, he'd have made some sort of public announcement already. So I'm leaning to believing the rumors. We'll see how serious it was soon enough if/when they either announce his death or eventually he recovers and makes a public appearance.

                      Not getting my hopes up. I'd love to be pleasantly surprised though.

                      • Much like America with Trump or other political leaders, Putin is far more Russian than an anomaly. When he dies-Russia will continue to be Russia.

                          • Here's an article from the AP that talks about how Russia covered up the costs/death toll of blowing up the dam.

                            Even so, dying in the flood was better than what war brought to their doorstep.

                            Anastasiia Bila, his daughter, remembers his last words clearly over the unstable phone connection. “Nastya,” he affectionately called her, hoping to soothe her anxieties as flood waters rose quickly, inundating 600 square kilometers (230 square miles), submerging entire towns and villages along the banks of the Dnipro River, the majority in Russian-occupied areas. “I’ve seen worse under occupation.”
                            I'd wager it was Russia that blew the dam.

                            Both Russia and Ukraine have traded blame for bringing down the dam, but analysts agree that Russia had motive. The dam’s collapse occurred right as Ukraine launched what would develop into a disappointing counteroffensive. The flooding altered the geography of the Dnipro River, complicating plans set out by Ukrainian military leaders.

                            • The most astounding naval combat footage I've ever seen. They drove a naval drone into a Russian warship while under fire in choppy seas with the delay in controls and then put another one in that same hole.

                                It's been pretty incredible what Ukraine has been able to do to Russia's navy.
