Who is surprised to discover that Fat Boy is also a master at negotiation?

For one, the dummies who jumped the gun on the Pulitzer peace prize.

It aint over till its over.

President Trump will ultimately win but I expect many dodges, reversals and on and off threats before it is over.

President Trump earlier tweeted and taunted “Rocket Man” for the misfortune of gas lines forming in North Korea.

He has the leverage and knows how to use it. He stated without an agreement the sanctions would not be suspended.

North Korea can hem and haw all they want. There’s no way out!

#MAGA baby, MAGA!

No kidding. Yet wasn’t Kim Jong Un so charming as he stepped across the border and shook hands with Moon in the JSA at Panmunjom?? It mean it was so ‘historrrrricccc!”, fantastic and unprecedented, right? (sic) That’s what many naive voices proclaimed not even a fortnight ago.

Agreed. To succeed, Trump will have to be offering something attractive to the NK senior military leaders. Right now, they are signalling not interested.

Trumps challenge is to put together a package that doesn’t unite the two Koreas in their animosity toward Japan, blowing up the alliance against China.

It can be done, given the Norths reservoir of rare earth minerals and the South’s manufacturing prowess.

Including some here. Some of whom aid he was the BEST foreign policy president in history.

Could end up that way. I dont like but i like him a lot.

Just that the herd mentality here sometimes, to FORGET what Ronald Reagan accomplished and how many HUNDREDS of millions he freed, scares me.

Already putting Trump above Reagan is short sighted, ungrateful and expected from a group with a lower IQ.

Not here.
