I think if trump wins he is gonna pull the support, which leads to ukraine losing the war
That would be terrible for ukraine and europe, which in turn would be terrible for US in the long term.
Ukraine is going to lose the war anyway, sooner means fewer people dying at least.
I mean, the intention of the USA isn't for Ukraine to win, just to fuck Russia up with as much NATO supplied weaponry as possible. This is to enrich the the MIC, encircle Russia so it can never challenge the USA again, and so they can refocus their forces in Asia and Africa to combat China.
If Ukraine wins (idk how likely it is if they don't have support for the whole war) it can just be another propaganda point for the State Department, but ultimately they'd even use a defeat as a win, because it battered Russia's military. And even if Ukraine loses or wins, it achieved the goal of Europe spending more on military so the USA doesn't need as many troops in Europe.
