I would have liked to have seen Prigozhin topple Putin, but on the other hand it probably wouldnt have been much better for Russia long term, however it likely would have meant an end to the war with Ukraine.
I think he was very foolish not only to hang around in Russia after the coup but to actually trust Putin in the first place and back out.
Agreed - I think anyone who trusts Putin is headed for a nasty end unless they remain entirely & completely loyal - & even then, they'd need to be extremely wary.
