are the RUSSIANS bad people

Last I saw, Putin was VERY popular in Russia. Was the Russian attack on Ukraine due to the NATO expansionism prospectively into the Ukraine, with missiles on the Russian border. Were the Russians sick of being attacked by the US leftists/Democrats with their false charges against Trump and the charges that they were manipulating the US election? (maybe a little , but NOTHING compared to the traitor left manipulation via millions and millions of Hispanic immigrants for their left votes). Were they highly disturbed by reports of the Ukraine and mercenary forces killing 20,000 Russians in eastern Ukraine. What about the US bio-weapon labs? Just asking. But here we have idiot Biden and his insane cabinet and military leaders threatening a nuclear holocaust. Seems to me like an insane risk assessment.
