Would you say his favorability is plummeting? Out a window, maybe?
> [Shoigu] once Russia’s most popular government official who even earned the nickname “Batman” for his public image as a rescuer of the people.
Amazing how they pulled from Western culture as a compliment to one of their leaders…amidst all their disparagement of the West. It’s like Kim Jong Un playing a scene from “Rocky” at his birthday bash.
Prigo revenge from the grave any time now.
This dude has been vulnerable for some time. People thought he was already a goner until they trotted him out in public recently, as I recall
We must thank Shoigu for a large part of Russia’s military incompetence. He replaced [Anatoly Serdyukov](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anatoly_Serdyukov), who [attempted to implement sweeping changes](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2008_Russian_military_reform) that would have drastically reduced corruption and made it much more efficient and effective. Luckily, his efforts upset too many apple carts and the generals and contractors responsible for thefts pressured Putin to have him removed. Shoigu was the goofball brought in to keep everyone happy, which he did by turning a blind eye to corruption and keeping the gravy flowing.
Shoigu should try what Prigohzin did, but go all the way instead of chickening out. If he doesn’t he’ll end up on the wrong side of a third story window.
Kremlin physicians have noted that Secretary Shoigu experiences feelings of dizziness when in proximity to windows.
Don’t Shoigu the messenger
He’s about to have an “accident”
Dictators tend to be always sceptical about his assistants, lest they be too powerful to challenge them. Because of that paranoia their 2nd or 3rd in command posts often become musical chairs.
Stay away from windows, guy
Don’t worry, Shoigu. You know what they say, “When God closes a door, He opens a window.”
BTW: Has anyone seen Gerasimov since that missile hit Crimea? They have played a couple of videos with him handing out medals, but those clips can come from when ever and the sound be dubbed using AI
