Oh it's not just extortion, it's abusive.
"We know that Trump and their administration are abusive and will kill people, but that's why you have to accept us as we are without us needing to change one iota, because we're not quite as abusive." That sounds like an abusive controlling partner to me. "If you don't do things my way, I'll let really bad things happen to you."
