You call competent a government that pulled the “special military operation” and led hundreds of thousands of its people into death for not much of anything? You must be trolling.
So not trolling, alright. Sounds to me like you consider them competent in what they did well while not subtracting what they didn’t. Let me contrast the Russian government with something that to me looks much more competent - the Chinese government.
China is indeed more competent, however we were comparing Russia to the US here. There’s is no metric by which you could say the US is better governed or more politically stable than Russia at the moment.
Given that Russia has a competent government and isn’t on a verge of a civil war, not sure in what way America is like Russia.

Typical of American exceptionalism to stand other country on the verge of existential crisis and when they react call that “for not much of anything”
