Conservatives, what do you really think of Putin?

This is for conservatives, specifically US Republicans, Trump supporters, and the global/European Right.

I’m not asking what you think of Ukraine, Zelensky, NATO, or US spending on Ukraine aid. I’m specifically interested in what you think of Vladimir Putin, his ideology and foreign policy. Do you see Putin/Russia as a global threat, as a model for a world order based on more traditional values and old-school brute strength, or something in between?
