Bill Maher: Why Putin invaded Ukraine under Biden, not Trump, is 'worth asking'

There are a lot of theories going around but Putin being scared of Trump is baseless. There is nothing you can point to that suggests Trump could have or would have brought the world together to oppose Russia. More likely he would have abandoned NATO.
Your subjective "Wheel of Fortune" opinions don't make the sun shine.
 
Putin is a late stage dictator. He believed his own bullshit long enough that he lost touch with reality. Having a dictator that has no belief in objective reality is not something to aspire to, no matter what the GOP pundits tell you.
Putin is a lot of things..psychopath, killer, and worse but crazy and senile isn't one of them. It's ignorant to claim so. The russians aren't like the US --they wouldn't tolerate a weak leader.

PUtin saw a weakness in NATO, Europe because of the US leadership. And they have used this time of weakness to attack.

Stop PROJECTING Biden onto PUTIN--they aren't the same to be dam sure. Both are crooks but PUTIN mentally is there...

well, he made NATO stronger, ans well putin didn’t invade like he did under obama and xiden….so you know…there are those facts
 
The best answer is that Biden allowed the situation to be created in which Russia's security was challenged.

It's not certain but it's very likely that Trump wouldn't have challenged Russia nearly as soon.

However, the challenge to Russia from America was coming sooner or later. There would have been too much pressure on Trump by the Pentagon, for Trump to hold off indefinitely.
Putin felt Trump was too unpredictable to mess with. Putin feels Biden is weak and can be bullied despite his story of taking on Corn Pop at the pool. Putin also may suspect Biden would not retaliate if Russia launched a first strike on our nation.

Biden doesn’t even want the nuclear football with the launch codes near him.

If that's the case he has seriously underestimated just how sick the western world has grown of his stupid shit.
 
Maybe one day we will get a peek inside his "reasoning" but chances are his timing has more to do with his own vainglorious delusions of Russian invincibility and his rapidly approaching death than anything to do with the US. In any case it seems he fucked up.

Can you tell us when this all started?

The entire world is seeing weakness in whatever this shell of an army is that Putin has spent decades creating. This invasion may be the worst mistake in Russian history, and Putin may soon beg historians to say that he ordered this because he was stricken with mental illness, in an effort to save face.

well it took him bombing a hospital full of kids…but yeah, glad germany, xiden and you demafascist got on board

Putin would not have had the power under Trump mainly because America was becoming energy independent and could have shut of Russian oil right away and since we were a major exporter at the time we could provide gas to Germany without them relying on Russia. Trump exuded strength as well while Biden exudes weakness.
