That\u2019s a very different world when Russia is a pariah state, not North Korea.\u201d<\/p>\n<figure id=\"M-ROS-B2\" class=\"a8d\"><\/figure>\n<p>\u201cAnd frankly \u2026 I don\u2019t know how this ends other than with the Russian people finding a way to remove Putin,\u201d he continued. \u201cNow, if they remove Putin, one of three things can happen. You can get someone worse. That\u2019s very possible. You can get chaos and disintegration in Russia. And you can get someone better. If you get someone better, someone NBA-league decent, you know, minimum as the leader of Russia, Becky, you have a different world. You have a whole different world. You can actually then go back and re-imagine what George H.W. Bush first talked about: a Europe holding free from Ireland to Vladivostok. But there are those other alternatives out there, too, so be afraid. But we\u2019re in completely uncharted waters when you move from bad boy Putin to war criminal Putin. That\u2019s a different Russia.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><em>Follow Trent Baker\u00a0on Twitter\u00a0<a class=\"x5l\" href=\"http:\/\/twitter.com\/MagnifiTrent\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener external\">@MagnifiTrent<\/a><\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>On Friday, New York Times columnist Thomas Friedman suggested that the only way to stop Russia\u2019s ongoing invasion of Ukraine was \u201cthe Russian people finding a way to remove\u201d President<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":23,"featured_media":2315279,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_mo_disable_npp":"","fifu_image_url":"","fifu_image_alt":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-1425433","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1425433","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/23"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1425433"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1425433\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/2315279"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1425433"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1425433"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1425433"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
