..unless of course you call unilateral withdrawal from a few treaties achievement.

What I think you are referring to I would call achievements.

1 - Withdrawal from the ABM treaty. It's was in our countries best interest to withdraw from the treaty, and in any case the treaty included a provision for withdrawal. We did not unilaterally go back on our word.

2 - Kyoto - It was also in our interests not to go along with this proposed treaty, and in any case nothing was ever ratified by the Congress so we were not bound by the agreement. Congress would have been unlikely to ever ratify it, and many other countries had also not ratified it.
