Right now, Trump has failed, and succeeded, pretty much as much as every other POTUS before him with respect to NK, Iran, etc....
Playing hardball with Russia and China might be the only solution, but even the arrogant Trump lacks the fortitude to take the economic hit. That's why these moves fail - those guys don't have to worry about re-election.
But it's also not just about our own fortitude. If the rest of the world won't abide by the sanctions, it just won't work.
