Putin will die a lonely old man unloved by the entire world.

Maybe. I heard for years about the impending collapse of North Korea after the Cold War then I heard no way could North Korea make a nuclear bomb. Same for China. Do an archive search for China will collapse any day now - like Trump any day. These authoritarian / communist / shitholes have figured out how to maintain power. USSR lasted like 70 or 75 years before finally collapsing. Cuba is still a communist shithole post Castro’s death!

A trick favored by Roger's Rangers back in the day was keeping a poisoned flask of alcohol on them.  The idea being that, if killed, their body would get looted and the flask would get drank and the dead Ranger would have the last laugh.

Huge risks to Russia if they do. The war isn't popular in Russia, not like anti-war protests everywhere, but nobody is signing up voluntarily to join. Putin commanding a nuclear strike is dangerous on one account, because there is a real risk that his own military tells that order to fuck off. And a Palace Coup starts being real possible when his people believe he's a mad man they have to get rid of ASAP.

Wind blows the wrong way and you'll have large parts of the Russian military contaminated.

Tactical nukes aren't that great on armored forces spread all out.

last, Russia has had a nuclear hostage for 70 years to prevent the West from invading. Using a nuke is killing their hostage. Deterrence is finished. Now you're talking NATO getting involved and regime change in Mowcow just became top priority. Even China would probably turn and start fighting Russia.

Russians are a paranoid people who seem to perceive threats in leaves blowing in the wind. Maybe the blame for that is the Mongol empire?

Easy world-conquering, distilled:

1. (optional) Migrate ethnic population over many decades.
2. Temporarily occupy sovereign territory under the guise of ethnic oppression
3. Plan referendum, cheating or with legitimate support from migrants from step 1, win
4. Claim any [defensive] attack on the previous sovereign territory is now an attack on you, nukes allowed.

Wouldn't Mexico be able to justify the same acts with our Southern border? Assuming they had nukes of course.

ETA for clarity: Objectively, it's a weak argument. How many displaced people are there in eastern Ukraine? If they want to be part of Russia, move into their already vast land area directly to your east. You've already a refugee at this point.
