I was wondering who may have gotten to Little Rocket Man (Kerry, Biden, Klintoons, et al) to convince him to hang in there a few more years, wait for a new Democrat President, and go back to the same old ways of dealing with the Norks: Play footsy, sound tough, but cave-in at every step and give the Norks more "stuff", and drink more champagne with Kim like Madeleine All-Dim. Is this why talks collapsed? Clinton operatives working on Kim, and other Clinton operatives (Cohen's attorney Lanny Davis) body-punching Trump while he was out of the country and the House sham hearing.
Disagree. I think little Rocket was promised the good life for his chunky little...whatever, and he's got that taste in his mouth now.
He'll be back to the table directly, unless they already worked something out (which is what I suspect) and are just finishing up getting everybody on board (South Korea most especially, and China and maybe the region, Vietnam etc.).
I don't think Lil Kim wants to go back to being America and China's welfare bitch (and being controlled). He wants to wear his big boy pants. This time for real.
I think the Donald painted him that picture. And he likes it.
After Quaddaffi, I’m not sure why anyone would make a deal with USA, until it is clear that Derpers are done for. It appears to me that China in particular is hoping to delay, in case POTUS is not re-elected.
Here’s a tweet that DemRat sent out, IIRC, shortly after, talks ended unexpectedly:
A president and a dictator met in Hanoi.
One has demanded unquestioned loyalty, bragged about his nuclear arsenal, attacked the press, and employed family members as his advisors.
The other is Kim Jong-un.
