Putin was smart to wait until Biden put America into dependence on Russia oil before invading a country Biden and his son already raped.

We're not dependent on Russian oil.
The US imports Russian oil, but it is not highly dependent on the country for its supplies.
In 2021, the US imported an average of 209,000 barrels per day (bpd) of crude oil and 500,000 bpd of other petroleum products from Russia, according to the American Fuel and Petrochemical Manufacturers (AFPM) trade association.
This represented three percent of US crude oil imports and one percent of the total crude oil processed by US refineries. By contrast, the US imported 61 percent of its crude oil from Canada, 10 percent from Mexico, and six percent from Saudi Arabia in the same year.
Why did Putin wait? Some intelligence suggests he had an agreement with China to wait until after the Olympics concluded. But President Biden has been working with Ukraine and the rest of Europe since last year because it was no secret what Putin's plans were.
