Exile


What do I think? Well, I'm sure anything I have to say is already out there under different names. Seems to me the fuss he's making is not just poor sportsmanship or vengeance or blind rage but an attempt to scare up a deal that would have him pardoned for his crimes and debts, free him up for the inevitable civil suits. Not that he'll stick around for those. Because if you ask me, I think he'll bolt, take up residence in Sochi, a guest of the oligarchs. People used to do that when things got heavy. And things are heavy for him. Time has shown that when you take things to extremes, there is no turning back. Like the fruit at the end of the branch, you are either picked and eaten, or you fall off and rot.
