But that's the thing, you can't trust the Democrats either, not because they won't keep their promises, but because if Republicans take power again any agreements Dem's made are also void.Unless Democrats use their power in 2027 to impeach Trump and prosecute everyone that's committed crimes (assuming they get the house and senate, and assuming the US is still a Democracy) the world's trust in the USA is done.

The problem with making concessions with someone like Trump, he just comes back with a new demand, having already established the fact that you are willing to do anything to get a deal or avoid his wrath.
The only way to beat a bully is to unite and stand up to them. You may get a bloody nose, but you might not. Bending over guarantees a life of servitude.
