"Art of the Deal" always has been just Mafia methods. He always says "do as I wish or else." China said no (and the trade war is still ongoing). Venezuela said no and Trump captured the president to make sure, the next one says yes. Iran said no and knows that saying yes would literally not change anything as long as Israel isn't agreeing too.

Also: Trump isn't even the first one, doing gunboat politics. That literally is what the US does since end of WW 2.
