It’s all such a tricky situation, we all know Putin isn’t going to deal in good faith, so you just have to kinda walk this tightrope, and that’s what Biden and NATO are doing, and why Ukraine wasn’t just brought into NATO already.
Trump is more likely to win than we are to see Putin toppled.
While you’re definitely right, that just means we still have a problem until Puty dies or gets dethroned, and once Puty dies it’s going to create quite the anxiety inducing power vacuum.
