The operative phrase is not willingly. Tightening the economic screws plus the pressure from China can bear results. Grab them by the balls and the head will follow.
It is certainly worth a shot.
Can you provide a list of comments Trump has made which depict him as being overly optimistic regarding these scheduled talks?
Please do not take my comments out of context.
You’ve conveniently and disingenuously snipped that sentence to suit a point of yours, it would appear.
Your words not mine.
And instead of evading the question for the 3rd time, can you not list these alleged comments Trump has made which depict him as being overly optimistic in regards to these scheduled talks?
In fact, could you clarify this? Credence in these up coming talks? Right? Who is implying what? And who is it specifically that is misled and overly optimistic?
See how you cut/altered my original sentence to alter the meaning?
Now why would you do that?
Anybody who places any credence in them just imply because Trump happens to be president at the present time, is sorely misled and overly optimistic.
Who is overly optimistic about what? Why are you being so evasive about your own comment?
You most certainly did cut my words, left out a portion of my sentence, to alter the meaning wherein I took issue with those who are way too optimistic about this situation before anything meaningful has yet to occur.
Why won’t you answer the question? Why are you so evasive to inquiries regarding your own comment?
This is your entire sentences, for the 5th time.☺
Credence in what or who? Who is implying what? And who is it specifically that is misled and overly optimistic?
Economic screws are about as tight as they can get, and what makes you think China would be willing to apply the necessary pressure? They like North Korea being a thorn in our side. It's in their interest to keep that going.
Their greater interest of exporting close to $600 billion worth of goods every year to the US supersedes NK being a thorn in our side.
The two are not related.
Trump has linked them. It is called leverage.
Sure.
Couldn’t be more taxpayer money coming their way, nah. With the trillions in chuck n Nancy deals.. well we know they aren’t spending it on a wall.
