Nah you’re seeing this a little pessimistic. It’s clear to anyone that there will be political in fighting in such a case, but claiming and retaining power is not easy, especially under the conditions that Russia is in right now. Different interests will need to compete for political power, and the resulting government will surely not align with the West’s vision of democratic rule. However, these are the moments of opportunity for the people. Nobody in the country comes even close to Putins cult status. Anything can happen.
Wouldn’t it be funny if make that 180° towards democracy like the US did towards fascism? :)
