It seems like there's no way that Biden can make any negotiation with Russia seem like a win to his base so if he wins it's almost an automatic 4 more years of war. But if Trump wins he could make most of the concessions that Russia wants and still sell it as "the best deal" to his fans. Is a trump win the best hope for shortening war?

Disclaimer: I would never vote for trump, I also won't vote for Biden, I'm also in a state that always goes one way so it doesn't matter at all.

Maybe because it would be the second term for Trump, I guess. But I just don't see Trump doing anything except whatever the Pentagon tells him to do. IMO it will be the same as Biden.

Remember that the generals kept sabotaging Trump's efforts to leave Afghanistan, and how hard the media has attempted to attribute Biden's low approval on his exit from Afghanistan.

Until Ukraine...... now the media loves him again

Almost makes you wonder.

Yeah, I can't see him doing anything different than Biden here

The only difference between them is that Trump will probably invite Zelensky to the White House less often
