CNN: Reports on the fear that the Republicans could take the House, thus block or waterdown support for Ukraine, thus after the Mid terms the Democrats, " might try to pass a mammoth bill during the lame-duck Congress, which they will still control after the midterms even if the GOP wins, to carry Ukraine through next year’s fighting. "
Lets Get Real:
Thus the Kremlin perspective might be two fold, hope that WINTER is harsh, and that will force the West to beg for Russian gas, to warm houses and keep business going, the price would be the removal of Western support for the Ukraine. On the US Mid Terms the Russians have their fans within the Republican, stage entrance DONALD TRUMP, the question has to be asked, will the defeated Democrats really want to explain to their voters why they have just given billions to the Ukraine, with inflation in double figures. Also when the Republicans come in January they will not be pleased that the Democrats have used the delay in changing power to fund the Ukraine for MONTHS. Thus Putin might be MAD, but he is not a fool, he could still WIN, and then he might try to take KYIV again, and will they WEST really stop him, if they need Russian Gas, it's going to get tricky folks.
