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.

No. Any cuts will seem weak, but they'll do more focus on making Taiwan the next multi decade burn pit. I think we will see a "stalemate" West / East Ukraine and Europe follows the USA in becoming a perma war / austerity state once they deplete ye olde cold war stuff. A 20 year slow burn like Afghanistan, Iraq, Syria and wherever the fuck we are that isn't more publicized.

They will then build up with modern weapons and do WW3 frfr around 2040 when will the boomers die off to prevent any speak of a peace dividend.

To add - Trump is for Sale. He's a bought bitch. He isn't good for peace.

Yes Trump eventually fired John Bolton, but only after all the safeguards were removed and set the ground wide open for Biden to hit the start button.
