He blithered his conceited, entitled self into the Presidency, and he, of course, thinks he's going to *bully* other countries into making deals with him to make money and kick the ladder out from underneath on anyone who won't play ball. This is Reality TV logic like The Apprentice. This is not the type of diplomacy the USA has been trying to foster for hundreds of years. His behavior is the kind of thing our Forefathers specifically wrote laws to prevent.
