If you say the room is too dark and needs a window, people usually won't agree. But if you suggest tearing down the roof, they'll compromise and agree to open a window.

What he is doing isn’t tearing down the roof though, it’s more like demolishing the foundation.

It's actually pretty fitting, because the room already has a window, Trump want to add a new window, suggests tearing down the roof, people open the existing window, he backs down and claim he got what he wanted.

Oh and in China's case he got punched in the face for it before opening the original window.
