I hesitated before writing that sentence for exactly that reason: it's overbroad. But, within the narrow scope of Russia's and China's interference in US elections, they both fundamentally want a weakened US so as to more easily dominate their near abroad. At the high level, I agree that they probably mildly prefer Trump over Biden, for reasons of Biden being much more able to work with our regional allies to constrain them. But their ability to effect that result is small compared to their ability to sow chaos. And chaos also serves their ends: a world where Biden is having to deal with domestic unrest and sharp partisan divisions is a world where he's constrained in his ability to make the plausible commitments needed for international alliances, which are in large part based on trust and faith.
