Actor Robert Patrick played a sporting goods store owner. Got in way over his head on gambling debts. The difference between the Goodfellas scene and the Sopranos scene was that Goodfellas was sort of a shrugged shoulders "hey, this is just how we do business" thing, while there was much more sadistic cruelty and glee with the Sopranos crew, "Who did you think you were getting in bed with?"

But yeah, 100%, it's the Trump Crime Family's bust-out of America. By the time he's done, the social safety net will look like a pair of fishnet stockings.
