The pattern is so predictable it's almost a parody of itself. Warning issued. Final warning promised. Super final warning coming. Official notarized final warning next. Mother of all warnings after that. Last warning that cannot be turned back. Then he walks it back anyway. This is what American foreign policy looks like now. Bluff after bluff. Threat inflation so constant the whole thing becomes theater. Meanwhile other countries are actually moving, actually deciding things, while we get warnings about warnings about warnings.
