Trump meets Kim: The world is safer, but Is Trump?
Arutz Sheva ^ | 12 June 2018 | Jack Engelhard

Why is Trump running so fast?

What’s the rush? It can only mean that Trump takes seriously Satchel Paige’s observation, which runs as “Don’t look back. Something might be gaining on you.”

That, plus he’s a New Yorker, which is to say he is bred, trained and conditioned to move fast in a town and in a business where runner-up gets no diploma.

You have to win and as president, Trump’s been chalking up his wins at an impressive pace – but why the rush? Is it to fix things before it’s too late? His successes together with his attempts to get things right, include Jerusalem, the economy, the Iran Nuke Deal, trade and the Western Alliance, borders, immigration, healthcare, North Korea – and he is just getting started.

On North Korea… the first impression from Tuesday’s summit with Kim Jong un is that Trump notched an historic breakthrough, first because they met and threw no punches. Second because Trump drew Kim away from his nuke toys and drew him into the world of business – deal-making. Whichever way this goes, Kim will never be the same. Trump induced him to join civilization. There’s no going back.

That does not mean the world is safe. But it is safer today than it was yesterday. Over there at least.

This is always in the back of my mind. I adore Trump and want him safe. But I think those years in the military academy made him a soldier who would stand up for his country, regardless of the self risk. He's always my hero.

Pundits are used to politics and diplomacy moving at a snail's pace.
They are not used to leaders actually solving problems instead of letting them simmer for decades.

They are out to get him one way or another. Trump knows this and if he’s not worried about it, his supporters can’t rest that easy

Always on my mind too. That's why I pray for his safety every day. I urge everyone here to do the same because they would love to see him dead.

8 years is a short time horizon to undue a century of damage the commie globalists have done. Of course he’s moving fast.

Rodney Atkins:

If you’re going through hell
Keep on going, don’t slow down
If you’re scared, don’t show it
You might get out before the devil even knows you’re there

Yeah, if you’re going through hell
Keep on moving, face that fire
Walk right through it
You might get out before the devil even knows you’re there


Hillary and her minions know that Trump and real Americans are there, but he’s moving and winning too fast for freedom’s enemies to stop him. All they can do is kibitz, grumble, and whine . . . or collude in treason, sedition, and their ongoing but still failing attempt at a coup.

Remember.

Remember the skating rink in Central Park.

Who got it built, and who DIDN’T.

This is the same Donald Trump! The SAME guy. He does things. He fixes what’s BROKE. He does not do things the same way other who have FAILED.

For them, those ways, he truly doesn’t give a sh*t. He moves on—ahead.

I call that WINNING, how about you?

‘ I have miles to go before I sleep’ .....reminds me of my beloved President.

He belies his age.....amazing mind ( and eyesight).....amazing stamina

At the press conference he admitted to 25 hours without sleep....
...and sounded as strong as ever!

He’s on wings of eagles.....God Bless President Trump!

Trump unlike Obama has actually earned a Nobel Peace Prize, though I doubt the liberals can stomach giving it to him. The CNN talking heads will lament that Trump didn’t accomplish everything from ending Kim’s despotic rule to removing every North Korean nuke by next Tuesday, but Trump accomplished more this week than any President before him. History may judge that Trump’s meeting with Kim like Reagan’s meeting with Gorbachev started a series of events that changed the world for the better. Reagan gets scant credit for freeing Eastern Europe from Communism and sadly Trump too may get little credit for bringing peace to the Korean Peninsula

The left is doing everything possible to deflect and discredit our President. The fact that a ruthless dictator sees the light and the American left would rather have North Korea status quo is sickening. So who is now more dangerous, Kim or American leftists?
