This just popped up on Drudge so I linked it here

Part of the (necessary) drama. Enjoy the show.

Paging Mike Pompeo, paging Mike Pompeo!

Bess not cancel, Kim. "Fire and Fury" awaits you.

The Kim family doing their utmost to play The Donald^TM. Probably not going to turn out as he imagined.

I believe this was okayed by Kim not too long ago so this make be fake news.

"I believe this was okayed by Kim not too long ago so this make be fake news."

Didn't they threaten to cancel over another matter last week?

All part of the charm dealing with Little Kim, the Rocket Man.

[windowdude]

Couldn’t they just hold off for a few weeks? Maybe threaten China or something.

Democrats offering him more if he breaks up the engagement.

More seriously - this might have something to do with Trumps ZTE announcement.

[Sacajaweau]

I think these drills happened about 10 days ago.

IMHO, there’s no need to provoke or shame them while we are in the middle of delicate negotiations.

British News Sources trying to keep the public attention AWAY from figuring out that it was the BRITISH government who tried to interfere in US ELECTIONS.

It’s on Fox and others too now.

Kind of funny to read this - if the pain that caused Kim to make arrangements at the table was bad enough for the offer, who thinks the pain won't just get worse if he leaves trump with no one to bargain with?

I'd wager President Trump will find ways to turn the pain level up to excruciating and Kim knows it - would guess only a military coup could cause him to back out and even then he is as good as dead.

[dfwgator]

I suspect there will be a few cancellations before it happens.

It’s all part of the negotiation process.

[COBOL2Java]

OK, where’s Kerry? Was he in Pyongyang?

[trublu]

We had already announced nothing will change, including sanctions, prior to the meeting.

If they want to pull out of maybe their final chance to save their country, so be it.
