    No country in its right mind would
trust Trump to honor any agreement he
makes. He has spent his whole life 
breaking promises and is still doing it.

    Whoever speaks first, loses — The power of silence in negotiation for
    business leaders

    This old negotiation adage states that the first to break a silence may
    inadvertently show their hand, revealing their intent, weakness or
    desperation. It’s often tempting to fill the air with arguments and
    counterarguments in a negotiation.

How is that "blinking" again?
Normal people call it negotiation.

You are NOT normal.
