12. I remember when he took Patriots' Robert Kraft's superbowl ring.

He asked to see it, Kraft took it off and handed it to him, and he pocketed it. Kraft let it go and originally lied saying he gave it as a gift. He of course now explains that the State Department suggested he do that to keep from causing an incident. I believe with sociopaths like Putin who are so macho they are toxic, it is often hard to know exactly how to deal with them. I myself an going to treat the picture as a knocking of him and not worry about sidebar musings about the meanings about this picture that indicate using it is wrong. But I respect your view on this too.
