It’s becoming clear that there really is an art of the deal, and President Trump is using it to get results on the Korean Peninsula.
Let’s work in reverse.
By now you know that yesterday, when a reporter asked the president if he’d talk on the phone with Kim Jong Un, he answered, “I always believe in talking.”
Clearly, that depends on what happens this week, when Kim’s regime will hold high-level talks inside the DMZ with South Korea — thanks to Trump.
Those talks are in part a result of the U.S. and Republic of Korea pushing back the 2018 Foal Eagle joint military exercises until after the upcoming Olympics, along with a Twitter slap by the president in response to Kim’s fiery New Year’s Day speech, in which Kim declared, “The United States should know that the button for nuclear weapons is on my table.”

After all, they say, he has shown traits of being mentally unstable even though they admit the trait that they hate the most is their own self-hate for Trump.
In other words, they think he is mentally unstable because they hate him. Sounds entirely logical to me......NOT.
But what's curious is why they have never been critical of the real bad guy, Kim Jong-un, for threatening nuclear annihilation of the US on a regular basis.
Makes them look mentally unstable to me.
