I've first read about Putin having a terminal stage of cancer in 2004 (that's not a joke). Since then I clearly recall him getting sick with some other kinds of cancer at least 3 other times.

Aren't you (yet) tired of dreaming about this?




That was a hypothetical, not a claim.

Unless you want to argue that Putin is immortal, he'll die of something. Unless that something is very sudden (possible) it will be fairly described as a terminal illness.


>That was a hypothetical, not a claim.

Those were all factual claims. Everybody will die, of course. But this belief "Putin is dying" seems to be a kind of spirituous ritual.


> what if Putin gets a terminal illness

No, this is a hypothetical.
