When you are at war, you keep fighting until a settlement is negotiated.
If the US is not at war with Russia, Trump quitting without a negotiated settlement is fine.
If the US is at war with Russia via it's proxy Ukraine, Trump quitting without a negotiated settlement is virtually treasonous.
I find it odd that people who claimed this was Ukraine's war not Americas are the ones most upset by Trump and calling him treasonous, whereas those of us who said this was a US proxy war seem to be okay with Trump just quitting. If you have any consistent morals, you'd say the opposite. Those saying it is Ukraine's war should be upset but accept that the US doesn't have to be involved and Trump hasn't committed any kind of high crime here. Those saying the US is in a proxy war with Russia should consider Trump to have committed a high crime by failing to continue fighting absent a negotiated settlement. At least it seems that way to me, I'm sure people will tell me I'm wrong if I am wrong.
