Everybody has seen how trump is and how he ignores treaties and pacts that he doesn't like, or that he doesn't understand, which is pretty much all of them.

He never respected a contract in his business days, and that's what he thinks treaties are, just pieces of paper signed by others that he is under no obligation to respect. For him a contract was always just another step in the "negotiation" process which usually involved ruinous court action that his opponents could not afford.

Time for some Thunderdome justice. Bust a deal, face the wheel. Under those rules, he wouldn't have survived this long for sure.
