Little more homework for you to educate yourself on, try and draw a parallel to answer the nuance of your question. Unless you don't care and are operating in bad faith.

And trump pulling out of Syria is the same or worse than Russia invading Ukraine? I'm dying to hear your comparison of these two events.

Couldn't or wouldn't do the work I see. Bad faith it is.

Mark Cuban schools Rep Ted Lieu on Trumps bonds

"But you are wrong on this topic Ted. Net worth is completely different than cash in the bank. We were in a zero interest rate environment for a long, long time. So keeping cash in the bank or even money markets was dumb. In fact searching for yield is what killed small banks last year. [....]

On a more macro basis Ted. Even if rates were along a long term trend line for the past ten years, few people are keeping more than 45 percent of their assets in liquid assets. And as far as the bond companies Trump's assets are mostly interests in commercial real estate and foreign assets. No bond company is loaning against them in this commercial real estate market, if ever .
I'm not sure it's fair to make someone put up a bond (especially of that size) before the appeal is decided. It basically means he's losing an enormous part of his assets before the case is fully resolved. Any time you're forced to sell non-liquid assets, you are likely selling at a significant discount. What if he wins the appeal? In that scenario, you made him sell his properties and lose a big chunk of his wealth - and it turned out that he was innocent. That's not fair. We can't apply the laws based on our dislike of one individual. We have to consider how it would apply to everyone."

Fucking Canada is also welching on its commitment! Holy shit.
Does fucking anybody in NATO live up to their word?

Trudeau nudges defense spending closer to NATO target
Polls credit “Trump Factor” in moving Canadian attitudes.

"Finance Minister Chrystia Freeland is expected to deliver Canada’s largest defense spending increase in seven years in the federal budget to be released Tuesday — but will still fall far short of meeting the country’s NATO commitments."
