Russia invaded Georgia under Bush. Russia attacked Ukraine throughout the Trump administration, though Putin was primarily focused on intervening in Syria during that time. The full-scale invasion of Ukraine was launched after our Afghanistan withdrawal, which Trump was going to do too. I'm happy to entertain the idea that better leaders could have done more to deter Putin, but we unfortunately don't elect people like Reagan any more.
