He has intentions to do this I would think. Prigozhins comments are getting bolder and bolder. I'm not sure toppling Putin would be possible but I'd like to see them try.I have been wondering if Wagner might just fully defect and go after the presidency while the army is all out in Ukraine.

No it is not the likely outcome. It will become a very very messy power struggle. I doubt anyone can call how the chips will fall. It will however hasten the end of the war in Ukraine which is crucial. These courageous people need a break and this may be it.The problem is there are no goodies. Its psychopath vs psychopath. The hope is they will largely destroy each other, the population will plague on both their houses and it will create space for a Navalny type opposition to sweep in. But that's not necessarily the likely outcome.
