People keep arguing back and forth about whether some administration or other would make Putin more or less likely to do the murder stuff in Ukraine. Let's approach this subject with a facts-over-feelings approach, starting by listing all the things that Putin would want from a U.S. president. Putin's perfect president:
1) Would try to limit aid to Ukraine (you know, since Ukraine is the country he is invading).
2) Would praise Putin and downplay anything bad he did (you know, since someone saying you are good is good for you).
3) Would want NATO's strongest member to withdraw from NATO (you know, since Putin keeps saying the voluntary defensive alliance NATO is bad).
4) Would try to limit sanctions on Russia as much as possible (you know, since sanctions on Russia are bad for Putin).
I am not saying these are good or bad things, I am not saying these describe anyone in particular. I am just saying that objectively speaking you have to realize that Putin would take these as green lights for invasion, IF he was taking into account "hmm, what does that country on the other side of the world think?"
Anything else I am missing from the list?
