No. The future of the world is at stake, H. So the Donald has brought his A game, as they say.

Everyone knows you don't give away your plans before time, so this was always an enormous bluff. We now know precisely where the rats will scurry to and where they will scurry from. Before, they would've been pretty well dispersed and dug in. But now, watching carefully, we know exactly where their hidden defences are and how they're set up; how they intend to respond and what the chain of command is; we know who talks to whom in a crisis.

I shouldn't wonder if the main business isn't already over. We may now not even have to engage at all as they know they've been bluffed into showing their hand, their plans. They'll be on the run so we'll just slap some more sanctions on them or something like that; stop their pocket money.

Tactics, see. Deception. The art of fighting without fighting, as the man said.
