I Think He Expected the Russian Army to Fall Apart.

He expected to be greeted as liberators. The city of harkev, which is the heart of the russian speaking aria, has not fallen. I think he expected the ucranian military to fall apart. He also overstated the effectiveness of his air forces and severely underestimated how the ukranians would respond. And it must be maddening to him that president zalensky this forty four year old, former comic, you know, no security background, is still standing despite hl mughf attempts to kill him. It must really be driving him around the bend.
