Senate Democrats on Monday presented President Trump with their list of conditions for a denuclearization deal with North Korea, saying they would only support lifting sanctions on Pyongyang in exchange for complete dismantling of the nuclear program.
They also want a deal to put checks on North Korea’s chemical and biological weapons.
The senators laid out a list of five demands in a letter to Mr. Trump, who is preparing for a June 12 summit with North Korea leader Kim Jong-un.
Sen. Charles E. Schumer, who signed the letter with six other Senate Democrats, told reporters that the Democrats didn’t want America “saddled with a bad deal.”
The New York Democrat warned against Mr. Trump accepting a bad deal just because he wanted a deal.
“The president needs to be able to walk away from the table if there isn’t a good deal to be had,” Mr. Schumer said. “He also needs to be willing to take the time to construct a good deal.”
Democrats staunchly opposed Mr. Trump’s moves with North Korea from the start, saying his tough rhetoric was tempting nuclear war and then that agreeing to a face-to-face meeting was empowering Mr. Kim.
The letter spelled out five conditions:

Can someone please punch Chuck Schumer in the face? Please?
This is truly an eye-roll moment. Too rich.
About 2000 acres 12-15 miles north of town. It’s 10% contained. Very rugged so hard to fight on the ground (400 firefighters) and air drops are not as effective. We had a cooler day yesterday with sprinkles and today and the rest of the week clear and in the upper 80’s. So far so good on no or little wind today.
Piss off, Cuck Schumer. Where have you and your ilk been over the last 65 years regarding North Korea? GTFO of my country!
Trump created and negotiated his way into a global empire. Schumer and the Democrats supported America Last, taxing the American people while destroying the economy, the value of the dollar, morals, and nearly succeeded in destroying our independence/sovereignty.
Motives of bad intent. Pure evil.
Bring me a shrubbery!
The same Dems that destroy our economy, patriotism and support Obama’s failed pact with Iran...these Democrats now attempt to destroy a tough Trump deal with the Norks.
They would rather see Seattle nuked than let Trump win another election.
They are nothing but TRAITORS to this nation.
Schumer and the Demo-rats are in no position to demand anything. ROTFLOL....when this is the guy who Compares MS-13 Members to ‘Our Great Grandparents’!
F Smuck and the dimbulbs
Dems trying to act like they’re not completely irrelevant. Failing miserably.
LOL! Mel Brooks in that movie is precisely the right person to compare Schmuckie with.
“Sen. Chuck Schumer, Dems give Trump their list of conditions for North Korea nuclear deal”
The useless Dems trying to horn in on the act is very much like Russia trying to horn in as well.
It doesn’t matter how good a deal PRESIDENT TRUMP (I just love saying that) is able to get with the Norks (if any deal at all), the Democommies will rip it to shreds.
Their letter to PRESIDENT TRUMP is just a setup so they can bitch later.
If he gets everything they want (doubtful) they will just add a “what about this”, you didn’t get this other thing.
PRESIDENT TRUMP could get every North Korean to commit suicide and the Democommies would complain about all the dead civilians.
Schmuckie And The Losers
They will do anything they can to prevent President Trump from succeeding in his negotiations with the NORKs.
Shut the Chuck up!
The people who gave us the Iran deal want to give advice to the person who wrote “The Art of the Deal”? Are they serious? No one cares what you fools want any more.
Ya late again to the party Chuckie Wuckie.
The Dems do nothing for years and now they have a list of demands?! If that isn’t Chutzpah!
