Trump could absolutely stop it, if he wanted to. Just send a few hundred tomahawk missiles as military aid to Ukraine. Then tell Russia that if Russia does not stop, the US will send more.

    Yes, but Putin might do more to help Iran.

    Like what? Putin needs his missiles himself.

    And remember that the US, is way, way more militarily powerful than Russia. The US has tons of spare military capacity, unlike Russia. Russia would lose an escalation war, and Russia knows it.

    Russia is much closer to Iran than the US which means it can move troops and equipment into Iran quickly.
