    The Art of the Deal:

    1. Behave recklessly and make threats to destroy the global economy
    2. Get pushback from allies
    3. Reverse course for allies, but behave even more recklessly against rival
    4. Rival realizes you don’t know what you’re doing
    5. Beg rival to engage
    6. Rival refuses
    7. Take insanely reckless actions toward rival
    8. Rival stands firm
    9. Get told by billionaires that you’re messing with their profits and, as a side note, domestic stability
    10. Reverse course for rivals, look incredibly weak and get exposed for not having a clue what you’re doing on the global stage
    11. ???
    12. Make America Great Again
