I share your skepticism, but am hoping for the best. Trump is leading a strong foreign policy team. I doubt Bolton or Pompeo will settle for anything short of total de-nuke by Fat Boy. With that, I would remove US troops over time.
My FIL served in both WWII and Korea, and he feared the NK/Chinese till the day he died.
Remember who visited Moon after Trumps inauguration, that’s right, zero himself. This could all be a pre-planned stunt by world powers and the DC swamp.
