Start calling it what it is, a razzia.

It’s a weird sensation to stick to this as someone so far away, but I feel plain proud of all the Ukrainian forces that made this happen so successfully.

The money is not their main driving goal, they know, or realize that Trump can shaft them on the payments.

What they do think they’ll gain is to be seen as a legal force to be reckoned with.

It does not matter if their legal strategy is a twisted mess of lies and wrong assumptions, they see trump controlling the courts and any win he is given by a corrupt judge reflects on them as a pure win on the case. And that is something they can wear as a badge while he is in office.

They also just bet on this regime sticking around for a long time so they can clutch to their status for quite a while, perhaps it leads to some lucrative advisory contracts down the line.

The thing is, the few more liberal elite are already afraid of the top kicking downwards so they will not stick out their necks… the rest of the elite is trying to join the plundering of the loot.

And the plebs? They’re being kept preoccupied by the lies and fake conflicts, and overwhelmed by their financial situation that traps them in a cycle of working as many jobs they can to keep a roof over their heads…

Until mass layoffs cause a plebian army with plenty of time on their hands no uprising will gain traction.
