So much brainworms in the comments

Thank you for your response. It makes sense.

My questions stems from the observations that: On one side: Trump was the first to introduce (economic) hostilities with China via tariffs (which got expanded under Biden) Conservatives who are into trump, and uncritically are into Putin ("traditional values") Conservatives who are into hawks like Mearsheimer (who's basically saying war with Ukraine bad, war with China in US interest)

And on the other side: Ukraine happening under Biden (Albeit as you mentioned, looking for the best opportunity to dump Ukraine now). Neolibs while not being particularly interested currently, at least are supportive of Ukraine.

Thus I made the connection: Trump = war with China (or at least doing another stupid first escalatory move similarly to raising the tariffs; Saying/doing the quiet part out loud) and Biden = war with Russia (albeit your response corrected that, I def see them trying to withdraw from there as well)

Spreading them thin and financially drain the reserves. With dedollarization picking up pace 's plan might work this time around lel

Is it fair to compare Biden vs Trump as the vote between war with Russia vs. war with China? (i.e. each candidate representing a different faction of hawks)

I vote because I agree it's a fun bit

I've seen a lot of user vote using vs . How is that vote counted?

The term was invented by defense experts John Arquilla and David Ronfeldt in a 1999 RAND Corporation study and often appears in connection with that of smart power.

You can't make this up (although apparently you can)
