I think this is an overly ameri-centric take. There are a lot of factors impacting this war, and sure the composition of the US Congress is one of them, but it is fairly insignificant. A much bigger factor in deciding the war is how successful Russian mobilization is/was/will be, and the political costs to doing a partial mobilization. Another factor would be the sales of arms from Iran to Russia, and whether they can be used to real tactical effect beyond the terror-bombing we've seen thus far.

- openasocket 4y agoSure, but the Russian media can have an overly ameri-centric take too. It's not like we trust the Russian media to fairly and accurately represent the factors impacting the war. And even if we did, they can still be wrong.
