Wishful thinking. As Dan said, war already started. Even the Dutch have troops on the ground in Ukraine, although our government assured
parliament that we wouldn't do that. If the Democrats stay in power,
the war with Russia will continue, if Trump will be the next president,
the war with China will become an open war.
I'll disagree. My impression of Trump is that he doesn't want any
wars. It's bad for business. That's not to say he might blunder into
a war, but isn't Biden doing that now? Biden's comments about Ukraine
have been more inflammatory than anything else ("Regime change", etc.) Democrats and neo-conservatives (i.e. Never Trumpers) seem to want to
keep the proxy war machine running at full power.

A negotiated settlement between Ukraine and Russia would be the best possible outcome and save probably hundreds of thousands of lives.China starts getting edgy.
China is mostly tolerant of the situation in Taiwan because of fear of the US, but, in some respects, China can save face by pretending Taiwan is already part of China, and the US can pretend that it isn't. It's when this balance is tipped, that

... not forgetting the resistance shown by Russia as well.
But times have changed drastically. Some US presidents were admired for sure because of their
personality and perceived beliefs, and because of their strong belief in democracy, but this seems no
longer the case. Biden is too old, and who is going to represent wisdom and restraint going forward is
difficult to imagine.
Merkel became, for the EU, a leader of some stature,
and now the EU, like the US, awaits some kind of strong replacement in mature leadership.
Meanwhile China looks on like a fox in front of a henhouse.

That would be a good thing, no? Unless by "more wary" you mean more
likely to strike first. Wishful thinking, perhaps, but I find that implausible.

NIMO. A collapse of Russia will be due do Russia's stupid behavior.
China might take a lesson from that. Besides, besides bluster, who

The Triumvirate of US-China-Russia tends to keep each other in balance. Two gang up against one in all different combinations, so the intertwining makes direct conflict difficult. Take one away and the balance is gone.
