I doubt much would change.
Some elections the person you want in wins, and in other elections they lose. I think Joe Biden is so out of it Kamala and Joe's cabinet has mlre than usual say. I just don't know exactly how much say she has over policy and the other cabinet members won't automatically be booted out day one.... at least not most of them, so it would be a lengthy transition period with the same people from Biden making the decisions as jnder Kamala.
I suspect she is a bit more of a war hawk and conservative and cares even less about human rights than Joe so we might get more wars, but she is also a career lawyer so I'd expect the Department of State to be causing most of these oversea wars in hair splitting legal issues rather than Joe just bumbling into another war and not knowing what is going on.
Like, War won't break out between the US and China under Biden. I follow alot of Chinese and maritime news. It's not happening, Joe doesn't pay enough attention to asia and especially not Taiwan, and Joe is corrupt enough to be bought off by the CCP. Kamala might actually read the fine legal print of the US Filipino Defense Treaty and actually enforce it when they ask us to. She might actually back Taiwan if she buys into the TSMC arguments we need to defend Taiwan at all costs or destroy TSMC if China successfully invades Taiwan. But a lawyer is no military strategists so I don't expect her to see farther than the initial evaluation of the bottom line of what benifits America and Kamala in the next election. She doesn't appear to be able to think that many steps ahead so as to create a coherent statecraft that fulfills our treaty obligations will preventing major wars from erupting. She's the woman who enslaved minority prisoners keeping them in jail past their sentence time to work in penal fire departments. That's how I expect her bottom line calculations to pan out. Just disasterous consequences after the initial reasoning has passed.
But I don't know how much she will be like Secretary of State Hillary after being screamed at for years not to do stuff, she would do stuff and then say years later apologetically they had no idea that it would happen. Kamala did say one of her backfires was a courageous decision but I don't knkw how much of that was pushed on her by Biden's team.
Alot of unknowns. Just doesn't look good.

@Dignaga why do you suggest that POTUS is going to be bought off by CCP? What evidence is there? As to military strategy, we are now in an era on which many of not most, politicians have had no military experience. We have to hope that whoever is president surrounds themselves with good people. If you look at the history of the last 50 years, one administration stands out above all for most indicted, convicted, pleaded guilty or resigned in disgrace.
@samueltyler2 Yeah, and those convictions were purely politically motivated. It's why the Democrats are doing so badly right now, because everyone in the republic saw what was happening, knew it was banana republic stunts performed by the democrats, and now a hardcore democratic loyalist has no choice but to either stand by those lies and support Joe Biden, or abandon Joe Biden hoping a new Democratic candidate can be elected and wash their hands of the kangaroo court trials the democrats have been persuing the last few years.
And Biden certainly has been bought off by the CCP. Instead of asking for a endless list of specifics, where you would just dodge or try hopelessly to refute, I recommend you just follow a few free to access news channels. Best is China In Focus via NTD News (New Tang Dynasty News). They are part of the White House Press Core, have a actual television channel and associate with the Newspaper Epoch Times which has been around for decades:
https://m.youtube.com/@ChinainFocusNTD/videos
The other is China Uncensored and also their longer podcast China Unscripted:
https://m.youtube.com/@ChinaUncensored
https://m.youtube.com/@ChinaUnscripted
They are based out of New York, and both have ties to Fulan Gong, started by refugees and survivors of the Chinese Genocide. China Uncensored did a fantastic job covering Super Tuesday's elections staying the most unbiased and neutral of any news agency I watched, but their reporting over Biden's corruption in regards to china and also hunter biden has been a fixation, as well as Biden in regards to Taiwan, the Phillipines, India and alot of other issues. They do note when Biden clamps down on China but it is usually superficial and he caves in massively in other areas. Basically Joe sucks with China. The cases are too numerous to recount, if you are interested just start watching now.
Other fun channels like ADVChina exist, they are less news Channels in terms of policy but exposing China, but they get ticked kff by leftist arguments supporting China (left supports China more than the right currently, that could change in the future). CCP heavily models it's foriegn policy off Leftist arguments. If the left attacks the government on something, China does so too and twists it when reporting it to their own people (China owns most all media in China). They do it a bit with the right but not so much, as they have less material to use and the right is more patriotic. But it's channels like that you'll see crazy stuff like news stories on a guy dressed up like The Monkey King (a famous fictional chinese literary character) being forcefed thousands of food items each day. This pis is from that story, I share it alot, cracks me up.
You also have a number of chinese oriented news channels discussing chinese foreign trade, and they have increasingly been critical of Biden vs Trump, but they try hard to come off as unbiased because they cater to a business crowd.
Human Rights channels absolutely detest Biden. Freedom of religion. Anything to do with Taiwan or South Korea or Japan or India/Quad relations. Alot of coverage of buden family corruption in relation to China.
You literally gotta live in a very small, ignorant liberal bubble to miss on this topic. I get it if you know nothing on China at all, but if you think Biden is doing well on China and consider yourself well informed, you are in a minority. Most are revolted by China. Unless you are a CCP Stooge, in which case you support Biden. China supports Biden too, but it appears they are resigned to seeing Trump back in office. Xi Jingping collapsed the economy during the extended covid lockdowns and faces further Trump tariffs once Trump gets back in, but they saw the writing was on the wall months ago.
So I recommend you study up. No time like the present. Great links above.

@Dignaga wow, you are of the belief that if you write a lot, you will seem smart and argue a point well. That isn't the case, it needs st shows how off the wall you really are.
You really agree with the conspiracy theory people and see the prosecutions as political. Well, good for you. But, 2 grand juries felt thereb as sufficient evidence to try and potential ally convict. One set of charges was tried before a jury of peers who voted unanimously to convict.
Do you really not believe that he has committed numerous crimes? How do you defend the actual actions, without saying the charges are all political?
