In the strategic vision of the U.S., Russia should be disarmed to become part of Europe as a "sidekick" and a bridgehead to contain China, the "more dangerous enemy" as Kissinger described it.
See in the case of Trump most of that was political theater. He might have withheld some weapons to Ukraine to pressure them into giving him dirt on Biden, but he still approved hundreds of millions in weapons to them, he's the reason why they even have Javelins. Maidan happened under Obama and even he refused to send them weapons.
His summits in North Korea were also inconsequential, the US didnt go through with any deescalation and North Korea kept their Nuclear Program. Its even come out since then that he actually floated Nuclear War with them. The biggest thing he did was temporarily lift some sanctions, he was just chasing a Nobel Peace Prize like during most of his administration.
