   #Putin's nuclear dick-waving is because he's rapidly running out of options besides nukes and admitting failure of #Russia's #invasion of #Ukraine

     I should clarify that this is a summary of what their comment says, not my own opinion.
     
     I think the nuclear threats are because he backed himself into a corner by promising quick success in the #invasion of #Ukraine ... #Russia can still continue the #war for some time before running out of options. (Without considering the option of overthrowing #Putin, as I consider that unlikely until and unless the Russian military leaders see total military collapse in their near future.)
     
     As for if or when a nuclear exchange will start, I profess complete lack of knowledge. He's a would-be world emperor, so seeing his path forward stymied could trigger an attack at any time. Or he could sit in the corner crying that those meanies prevented him from righting the (in his mind) wrong that was the breakup of the Soviet Union. It is anyone's guess which will happen.
