Trumpistan and Nuclear Weapons: A Thought Experiment

IF Trump was worth as much as he claims (he's not), and if he managed to buy control of some small Country, say Equatorial Guinea, and started a nuclear weapons program that looked like it might succeed, what would the civilized world be willing to do to stop his program before it made a functional weapon? Economic sanctions? Bombing?

How much worse that it's possible he will get control of the most sophisticated nuclear arsenal on the planet?
