s are doing that but you're hearing that from Ukrainians. We can't give this land up because so many people sacrificed to try to keep it. You should count that as zero. If millions of Ukrainians died trying to protect that land, zero. You should not include that in your decision.

However since we're not a logical species, we're a persuadable psychologically emotional species, it does matter if people feel like they can't make a certain decision. But you need to separate what is them feeling a certain way. Oh we can't give up this land because we've sacrificed so much with what makes sense. What makes sense is it doesn't matter at all how many people died trying to protect that land. It doesn't matter. It's already over. They're dead. You have to make your decision like you woke up into the game today and the only thing you know is what's true going forward.

So here's my prediction. I think Putin is going to keep yanking the football. We're already seeing some indications that Putin isn't so keen on getting a deal which would be no surprise. And eventually if it hasn't happened already whatever good will Putin has developed with Trump will evaporate and reverse really quickly. And when Trump decides that he's pissed off at Putin and there's no redeeming, it's going to get ugly. And I'm almost guaranteeing that's where it's going to go. I don't think Putin is going to deal with Trump and with Europe and Ukraine in a productive way. I don't think he wants to. I don't think he plans to because time is on his side and he probably thinks that Trump and the Europeans have used all of their chips, that there's not much else they can do to him and he can just last forever.

But as I mentioned before India went from 1% of its oil that it purchased being from Russia to 40%. And it turns out that the reason it went so high is that it's not that they're buying it to use it in India but some entities in India are buying it and reselling it because it's cheap oil. So they're just keeping the difference. So basically some Indian entities and there can't be that many of them because you would have to be in that specific line of business. How many people are in that line of business that they can move gigantic amounts of oil from one country to another? Can't be that many people.

I think that Trump says to India, here's the deal. You've got half a dozen companies that are allowing Russia to move its oil. I know you India as a government want to keep good relationship with Putin. However there's nothing that's going to stop us from taking out your six companies. Their CEOs are going to start dropping dead. We will sanction them individually. We'll just take out those companies. And what will India do? Will India say you can't do that. I want to protect my companies that are thwarting the sanctions on Russia so that the Ukrainian war will last longer? What are they going to do?

Well I don't know the full situation. So I'm in way over my head talking about Indian buying and reselling oil. But if it's true that there are a handful of companies in India they're keeping Russia alive, I believe that we could target them. I believe that we could just tell India, look those companies are going to start having some real bad luck. And you might not know where that came from but trust us those companies are going to have some real bad luck and it's going to happen really fast.

So here's what I think. I think Putin is going to believe that he can get away with stalling and that will cause the Europeans to be mad at Trump and that'll all be good for Russia. But I think Trump is going to say you've now crossed the line and now I'm going to take your economy and maybe it will be the India play. Maybe not. But I d
