Highly doubt it with China. They're not as obsessed with China as people on here are. Ukraine, maybe.
More than anything though, conservatives are just going to attack Biden the same way they did Obama for "being too soft on China and making us look WEAK!!" and "letting Putin walk all over him, just like Obama! SOFT!!"
The headlines write themselves. I can hear it right now cause we heard this same shit over and over and over all through 2010-2016.
The Republicans are just going to do what they planned to do under Hillary. In 2016, all signs were pointing towards a recession in 2017 or early 2018. The GOP went with Trump because it was like a House money bet. They figured he would lose, they wouldn't have to sacrifice a rising star, and then they could tank Queen Hillary and win big in the 2018 midterms then take back the Presidency in 2020. When Trump won in 2016, the tax cuts were like a sugar rush to keep things going. The rush to fill judge seats was like a gambling addict paying off his debts after an impossible score.
Ultimately, the Republicans made out like bandits this election cycle, and with Trump in general. They held the Senate easily and will gain seats in the House during a Pandemic/crisis while they were in charge. More broadly, they made seemingly-impossible inroads with voters of color (especially Hispanics). When you out Joe's performance in context, the Dems look like they are in big trouble moving forward.
You're right, regardless of what Biden or Kamala do, the right are gonna say they're soft and are undermining US dominance, just like with Obama. I don't know if foreign interference will be the "angle" this time around or not. Far-right online message boards are making nebulous "commies" out to be the enemy, which can mean almost anyone or anything, but I don't know if that's indicative of the GOP as a whole. It's also possible that there will be a larger bipartisan push for China as the national enemy rather than it being fodder for dem-v-gop mudslinging.
I think the GOP is more likely to push an equally-bullshit Chinagate. Maybe some Ukrainegate too for good measure 🤷
