If Trump wins, he'll be even less isolated AND he'll get to keep Ukraine to boot.

I mean Russia is going to win in Ukraine regardless which kleptocrat gets in power in US.

Wrong. Russia already lost. It's just a matter of how many more people have to die.

Not only have they failed to keep NATO from expanding onto their borders, but they are now China's bitch.

Goodbye tripolar world where Russia has a say.

Goodbye any fear Europe had of Russia. They can't defeat Poland much less all of NATO.

Putin failed spectacularly and the only ones who won't admit it are the Kremlin or Republicans.

It's true, Russia lost its entire citizenry other than Putin to the war, now he's just operating by means of North Korean hand servants. They lost about 200% of their population because, after the Russian conscript dies, the Ghost of Kiev hunted down their ghost and killed that too.

It seems you haven’t noticed yet that it is the Global North that’s increasingly isolating itself from the rest of the world. And given that the Global North has largely de-industrialized, it’s going to find itself in a pickle. And Russia is major player in the global majority.

They can’t defeat Poland much less all of NATO.

To everyone not buying the imperial core’s cartoonish propaganda, this is a non sequitur, because those aren’t things Russia intended or intends to do.

Expansion of NATO to Ukraine, specifically, was the red line. That is not happening any time soon.

Russia having closer ties to China is the US' nightmare and is a good thing for Russia. I assume yiur "removed" reference is either misogynistic or homophobic language. Nice look.

the fantasy world you inhabit sounds fascinating

In the fantasy world where Putler’s goal was European Lebensraum, it is true that Russia will lose. The problem is that, despite almost two years of Western propaganda to the contrary, that never was Russia’s goal.

I do have to say that simply making up goals for Russia turned out to be a very effective propaganda strategy.
