You are losing it man. Again Putin is not an idiot, nothing he has done has warranted this label.
He may make mistakes, he is definitely evil but he is no fool or idiot. I just find it hard to believe he is going to nuke a neighboring country. I can see him nuking other countries but not Ukraine.
And dude you seem way to emotional, just relax a bit. Being emotional is not helping you or anyone.
If you can help Ukrainians do it, if not just play it chill. If you are in Ukraine and want to get out you can. Poland, Romania, Moldova are all taking in refugees.
Keep in mind that the last thing anyone needs is hope for Putin to lose, is the best way to ensure he is going to use the nuclear option. I hate what Putin is doing but I do not see any good scenarios here.
The best I can think off is Russia annexes the 2 russian areas as per their original borders and Ukraine signs that they are not going to apply to join NATO.
Maybe Putin will concede and retreat from Ukraine if the cost is to great, this is probably the best option but I just do not see Putin doing that.
Nobody's nuking anybody. Mutually Assured Destruction is still a thing. If Russia or China launched a nuke they'd destroy the world through the retaliatory strikes. Putin may want to rule the world, but he doesn't want to rule over a nuclear wasteland.
That is the thing, I do not know if US would use the nuke in retaliation. The west have been very non-aggressive and Putin may just say screw it, I will rather risk a nuke then lose. A chance to win is better then no chance.
And lets not forget Iran that is very close to having nukes, how fast would they nuke up with a bit of help from Putin.
I may just be pessimistic and o boy do I want to be wrong this time.

Any other option may lead to Russia going postal.

I'm sorry but you're a fool if you think the US wouldn't retaliate, regardless of who the president is.
There would be no more politics if a nuke flies.
I have no idea and neither do you. The question is more about what Putin thinks, not I or you.
