That in the very real and current contest between Biden and Trump that Biden at least supports Ukraine, whereas Trump supports Russia and would likely support Isreal to the extent of starting WWIII in the middle east to bring about the apocalypse for his evangelical base, who earnestly believe they'll be raptured to heaven while the rest of us live through a nightmarish helscape. Which is looking less crazy by the day because some people won't vote for an old man who doesn't 100% align with their political views vs fanatical insanity spearheaded by an also old man.

So nothing, really. I'm also not very convinced that any US president is going to deviate very far from foreign policy status quo-- Trump loves the weapons manufacturers as much as Biden does, and both conflicts are ultimately a gift to them.
