Would Putin have invaded at all, knowing the USA had someone equally as crazy? In a screwball sort of way there was a balance of power, with Kim Jon-un, Putin and Trump all just as nuts as each other. They all acted like a nuclear deterrent to each other. And don’t forget Trump did make an effort to court more friendly terms with these two.
I can’t help thinking Putin would never have invaded under Trump’s watch. If he had, then Trump would have got in there and negotiated an outcome straight away, he was not a ditherer, he got things done. Whatever you think of him he was a powerful force.
So where would we be now if Trump were still in power?
