This is going to be a very interesting day/week. He has already stated that his goal is to remove Putin from power and have a new leader. He didn't say who the new leader will be and how it is will decided?

I don't see Wagner and the other hard-right military supporters ending the war with Ukraine. It may be that the new boss will be more inept than the old boss and Ukraine will regain their lost territories (but that might not end the war).

Maybe at some point civilian authority will reach critical mass and maybe what's left of Russia at that point will move closer to a real functioning democracy and capitalistic society. I don't think anything like that is in the cards for the near future.

All the money in the world can't make someone look like a passable double for somebody else in HD. If so we'd have one good Elvis impersonator at some point.
