Kadyrov and Prigozhin are definitely worse than Putin, arguably even more psychotic than him. Though in the case of Kadyrov, I really doubt there is much appetite in Russia's elite for the petulant boy from Chechnya to take over, there doesn't seem to be any love between Kadyrov and Gerasimov or Kadyrov and Shoigu or Kadyrov and Peskov, Lol.

Prigozhin is a worry though, a psycho that is close to Putin and not as abrasive as Kadyrov, whilst being very friendly with the psycho Kadyrov too and backing his insane opinions and Wagner (which he founded) is the only unit having success in Ukraine right now (around Bakhmut), so it makes him look actually competent.
