I chose two obvious scenarios:
1)trump wins
2)Biden wins.
which would benefit Russia benefit more from?
the obvious answer is: trump wins. russia continues its overt pulling of trumps puppet strings to allow russia to do as it pleases to fuck over this nation.
or
the unobvious answer: Biden wins. russia could exploit Biden winning and create the divide of a "rigged" election and stretching out the insanity of trump for years to come, even after he's dead. by continue to feed the crazy right more and more conspiracy insanity, we become a nation sharply divided more so, perhaps even rumblings of some sort of right wing militia nut job skirmish war.
but regardless of what the election outcome (Biden, please) russia still has the upper hand with continuing to destabilize the U.S. until real election laws and protections are enacted.
