It’s been my belief all along that Putin is just planning on going at this forever, knowing that attrition will occur, and that the US will eventually give up.
The Trumpian Republicans have already sided with Putin.
No matter the losses by Russia, Putin doesn’t care. The conquest of Ukraine is so tied into the idea of Russian-ness for a segment of the Russian population, that Putin knows he can continue.
