Wild tin-foil hat nutso conjecture not to be believed or credited: A couple of years back (c2015) Putin was looking really ill. He disappeared from the cameras for a while and came back looking better. Now he’s keeping his distance from everyone (even his own operatives) with a very long table. ipso facto quatly quat: Putin got a transplant and is notably immune compromised.

Critics have chided Putin for sheltering in a “bunker” during the coronavirus outbreak, reportedly protected by medical tunnels of dubious efficacy that sprayed visitors with a cloud of disinfectant.
The Proekt investigative website later claimed the Kremlin had built an identical windowless office in Sochi, a resort city on the Black Sea, where Putin was reportedly holding meetings while he was believed to be in Moscow.

We’ll, he hasn’t been photographed without a shirt on for a while…

I would certainly like a table like that at my house when my mother-in-law comes over (tugs at collar). Thank you

Ah, the headline confused me, like why would a founder of the band Boston be facing off against Putin?
