These outcomes are inevitable. Trumps only choice is if he gets to take responsibility for the loss.
Prolonging it means more dead Ukrainians and the risk of Trumps presidency being sucked into the war, consuming all of his energy and keeping him away from the internal issues that urgently need his attention.

His time window is shrinking.
