But at least Russia can fund their war better, right?

Are you referring to where he just eased sanctions on Russian oil so they can sell again at high profit to fund their own war of choice?

I figured he was going to drop sanctions on them sooner or later but that was quite the ploy

The problem is zero consequences for anything he does now, completely isolated, so it's one country destroying choice after another

I believe at least part of the rationale for allowing sales, short term, is to try and reverse the oil price increase, due to the Iran war.
