This is like building an Ikea bookshelf. You have to do it step by step.
It’s also why you try to negotiate with someone before you bring out the big guns. Will Trump do that? I dunno. Nobody does. It’s doubtful but, then again, the embassy moving to Jerusalem was doubtful.
If after every step your furniture falls apart then maybe it's time to realize that the shelves are never going to get done.
