In order to follow developments in the Ukraine war (seemingly yesterday's news already), I track Intel_Slava on Telegram. Within a day after the assassination attempt on Trump, the Russians are now dropping bombs marked as "For Trump." (Za Trampa.) It makes me wonder what their SVR (Foreign Intelligence Service) knows about all this.
The Russian news reports on this channel are disdainful of Biden and respectful and even concerned about Trump.
The scene in Ukraine seems to be that Russia is conducting a vigorous but measured and thorough mopping up, clearing Ukrainian forces from novoRussian territory. Immense bounties are being offered for any Russian pilot who downs an American F-15 or F-16 in theater.
They are not by any means "holding the line." They have been diligently claiming territory and settlements. Ukrainian troops are collapsing before them. They would be stupid to let up, now that progress is certain.
My view of how Trump will stop the war is that he will shut the tap of U.S. military assistance. No bullets or bombs? No capability to fight. At which point, the Ukrainians have no option but to sue for peace. Russian terms will prevail, but the war will have ended (to the great relief of the Ukranian public).
