trump cutting aid to ukraine might not be enough to end the war. he could also try to dictate supposedly "generous" terms to putin, and then go on an unhinged tangent when russia refuses to accept anything other than complete capitulation from ukraine. usually, things like this are not so clear cut.  the only way we're getting a quick end to this is if trump orders a coup d'etat in kiev and manually forces an end to the war through strong intervention against the ukrainian regime. a negotiated settlement is not something the current government there has the intellectual or moral maturity to achieve. they will attempt to grift until they can no longer or are physically removed.
