Sorry but that’s propaganda. Even Trump will be reasonable when the cameras are off.
But even if Russians are pure emotional irrationality, they still have to obey physiks and have to handle Nato or EU explosives. They can’t protect their refineries. How should they protect a fleet in the baltic sea when Nato controls all shores and the entrance and Nato has three times more submarines there?
Trump, reasonable? Have you not heard any of the stuff that was leaked by his white house staffers?
Attacking Ukraine itself was not a reasonable decision and as you say: they are currently loosing that war. So likely losing a war seems not be a factor that stops the Russian government from its decision if they are high enough on their own fumes.
It all depends on how the West reacts to China taking over all markets. Are we going to accept the challenge and improve our products or are we going to restrict Chinese trade militarily?
While it certainly could be that the people surrounding him do apply the madman theory at times, his behaviour can be pretty well explained by narcissism and dementia alone. It’s not like Trump is a particular smart individual with long term planning. He is as stupid as he appears, the problem is just that apparently that’s exactly on the level of a third of the USA population.
And regarding Chinese support: that applies to your own doubts in your earlier comment regarding supply lines as well. So either you think China is supporting Russia no matter what or you don’t. But please stop jumping around.

It can, but we are talking about the billionaires being so stupid to accept Trump a second time to destroy the reputation of the US and their source of power.
Take the ballroom. It’s a secure datacenter, but everybody keeps calling it the ballroom.
The media plays along, which means that it is all deception.

What’s the contradiction? That China can’t supply Russia because it is too far away?
No they want these strategic positions
With which fleet should they be able to conquer it? How can they maintain a supply line to hold it?
Don’t look for reason among the Russians

China has said that they cannot afford Russia to lose. We are not reaching the end but the end of the beginning.
I fail to see why that would be the case. I feel they would actually benefit from a beaten and isolated Russia.

The beginning of this comment line was you saying
If I might remind you of your own words.
Is this why they shell a nuclear power plant? Who knows what Putin wants anymore.
That’s hardly “desperate”. It’s more opportunistic, than anything else.
