Other people just think he\u2019s a complete raging bully. But whatever it is, the people of Ukraine are paying the price for it.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The White House has also openly questioned Putin\u2019s mental state, according to a Tuesday <a href=\"https:\/\/thehill.com\/policy\/international\/596269-worries-grow-over-putins-stability-mindset\">report<\/a> from The Hill:<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p><em>Experts, analysts, lawmakers and even administration officials have speculated that Putin\u2019s isolation during the COVID-19 pandemic has raised his paranoia. They\u2019ve pointed to decisions he\u2019s made such as the invasion itself and his move on Sunday to put his nuclear forces on alert in suggesting he is not making rational decisions.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>White House Press Secretary Jen Psaki spoke with ABC News on Monday, saying, \u201cI\u2019m not going to make an assessment of his mental stability, but I will tell you, certainly the rhetoric, the actions, the justification that he\u2019s making for his actions are certainly deeply concerning to us.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Senator Marco Rubio (R-FL), who sits on the Senate Intelligence Committee, <a href=\"https:\/\/dailywire.com\/news\/wish-i-could-share-more-intelligence-committees-marco-rubio-warns-something-is-off-with-putin\/\">has also hinted<\/a> that there might be more than meets the eye with regard to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.msnbc.com\/andrea-mitchell-reports\/watch\/sen-marco-rubio-putin-would-prefer-not-to-escalate-to-the-point-of-nuclear-war-134327877831\">Putin\u2019s stability<\/a> \u2014 and he said it was starting to become visible in recent videos that showed the Russian president outwardly showing anger and frustration.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe one thing Vladimir Putin has always valued is emotional control, is the ability to never flash any emotion, and to watch a video of him the other night and those flashes of anger, that\u2019s very uncharacteristic,\u201d Rubio said Monday, adding, \u201cWe have to understand that whatever we think he might have done, or assumed he would do in response to actions 10 or 15 years ago, is not what he might do today, and that\u2019s an important thing to take into account. This is a very dangerous moment, in my opinion, because of that.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Former Ambassador to Russia Michael McFaul said his concern was that Putin had spent many years effectively consuming his own propaganda.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI\u2019m nervous that Mr. Putin has been believing his propaganda for decades,\u201d McFaul told NBC News on Sunday. \u201cI sat in the room with him for five years when I worked in the Obama administration. I speak Russian. I listened to him and I know what he says, he\u2019s increasingly unhinged.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><em>The Daily Wire is one of America\u2019s fastest-growing conservative media companies and counter-cultural outlets for news, opinion, and entertainment.
