the DPRK, the enraged chihuahua of world nations is China's cat's paw - forever yapping and nipping at our ankles. This is all done at the behest of China. Fat boy starts making threats, President Trump lightens up on China and fat boy shuts up.

The only way to bring lasting peace to the Korean peninsula is to convince China that they will be held accountable for anything their client does. Appeals to the Dean Acheson/April Glaspie paradigm have had disastrous consequences in the past and if followed, will again. Mr. Adams doesn't seem to understand this.

Agreed. China’s going to have to heel their proxy, or we will.

Mr. Adams is describing how a dealmaker would work. He has been right in what he expected of Trump pretty consistently. He does not expect Trump to make this particular deal but he is outlining how a dealmaker would make a viable deal in Korea. The described facets of the deal would not be the same as Mr. Adams outlines. His is an outline of the sort of thing it would look like.
