And yet I still have to believe that, deep down - even if it's a manifestation of a deranged mind, and even if I wish there were people to reason with him - deep down, I hope he's not doing all this purely out of ego, but in _some_ form of twisted "it's what is best for my people" train of thought.

Obviously that leaves the question who/what will replace him, it may well be worse rather than better. But that chance is one we will have to deal with sooner or later anyway so it might as well be sooner. Putin has done enough damage for one person.
