Methinks that the the Norks demolished their testing site some time back with their inept nuclear testing methods. They gave up something that was already worthless to them.

The only way the Norks are gonna give up their nukes is if we pry them from their charcoaled glowing hands.

Brett Baier just read a breaking report from Reuters that North Korea wants to continue discussions with the US. He said it sounds like a love letter in response to Trump’s decision to cancel.

I couldn’t find anything on line.

Trump has not been played. The vice foreign minister is quoted and sounds very conciliatory.

Its called The Art Of The Deal..President Trump is NOT going to lick Rocket Man’s ass like Obama/Kerry licked Iran’s ass and called it ice cream. Ever bought a car from a car dealership, you negotiate, or you walk away and watch the dealer say “Wait Wait come back we can talk”

North Korea says open to resolving issues with U.S. after Trump scraps summit: KCNA

SEOUL (Reuters) - North Korea’s vice foreign minister Kim Kye Gwan said the North is open to resolving issues with the United States whenever and however after U.S. President Donald Trump called off a June summit with its leader, Kim Jong Un.

“We had set in high regards President Trump’s efforts, unprecedented by any other president, to create a historic North Korea-U.S. summit,” said the vice foreign minister in a statement released on Friday by the North’s central news agency.

“We tell the United States once more that we are open to resolving problems at any time in any way,” he said.

“Wait Wait come back we can talk”

There's nothing to talk about. Kim will never give up his nukes. He'd be dead in 6 months if he did. The only thing Trump can give Kim is a veneer of legitimacy by sitting at the same table with him.

I don’t think he got played. I’ve no doubt that the North Koreans didn’t expect this kind of reaction and they’re probably figuring out what to do next. The only fault I can see is not letting the Moon and the South Koreans know first - supposedly they found out about it on news broadcasts. You want to keep your opponents off guard but not your allies.

I think Kim owes Pence a prolonged, groveling apology. What bad manners he showed.

One of his mouthpieces called Pence a “political dummy”. Not very diplomatic.

They hate Pence because he is a Christian. They persecute them and send them to prison camps. Dear Eater will get his deserved karma one way or another, sooner or later.

Trump is in front of Kim. He is the player, not the “played.” But liberal pinheads are clueless.

IT is true. Trump speaks the language of Kim! No one else in recent history has understood these guys so well.
