I just finished Masha Gessen's expose/bio of Putin, everyone in this thread must read it immediately. Utterly fascinating and an excellent review of Russian political history after the fall of the USSR.

Thanks, just googled some of her stuff on Putin and Trump and the stuff about their relationship to the truth is really interesting. Also, coincidentally, she's on MSNBC right now.

Yeah, the psychological parallels between the two just leap out when you read Man Without a Face, though there are many obvious differences. One of the most interesting aspects of Gessen's work was later in the book, when she touches on Putin's pleonexia (the irresistible urge to own something that belongs to someone else).

The motherfucker just straight up pocketed Bob Kraft's Superbowl ring in front of him, and walked out of the room! I remembered that story but didn't know how brazen it had been. There are many other stories too where he makes almost a show of taking something in mixed company. Interesting childhood anecdotes too, along those lines. He's a pure thug and it's fascinating how effective he has been.
