a Colonel in the USMC, no matter how venal and corrupt he might be, has a life history of discipline and self control to break.

Trump has none of that.

It's a cinch that nobody would need to resort to the lawyer trick that broke Jessup to make Trump melt down.

It was Jessup's arrogance that finally brought him down, but until that moment, he exercised a great deal of self control. Trump has never been disciplined and loves to run his mouth. It is mindboggling that the man has achieved any measure of success in his adult life, let alone become President of the United States.
