Fox News host Shep Smith on Tuesday slammed President Donald Trump for how he conducted himself at a historic summit with North Korean leader Kim Jong Un, accusing him of giving Kim everything he wanted while receiving virtually nothing in return.
America demanded complete, verifiable, irreversible denuclearization. Theres no guarantee of that, not even words to that effect, Smith said of the agreement signed between Trump and Kim, which says North Korea will work toward denuclearization but doesnt offer specific details on how this will occur.
The Fox News host decried Trump for offering his signature to an agreement that only offered generalities.
Smith also ripped into Trump for agreeing to halt joint military exercises between the US and South Korea on the Korean Peninsula.
[Kim] wanted the photos, the seat at the table, he wanted the legitimacy that came with the event, the handshake with Americas president, Smith said. And he wanted those military exercises with the Americans and the South Koreans that happen every year to stop.
Kim Jong Un got it all, for actually doing nothing, Smith added.
Shep is NOT impressed by Trump's summit performance

At a press conference following the summit, Trump described Kim as a talented man who loves his country and people.
Smith seemed appalled by the way Trump complimented Kim, describing him as a leader who has committed crimes against humanity ruling over the most entrenched land in all the world.
The Fox News host reminded the audience the UN has characterized Kim as the leader of one of the most brutal and repressive regimes in modern history.
Thanks Shep.
They called Shep “The Little Engine That Could” in prison...
Welcome to the chosen narrative.
Nobody cares what you think, say or do, Schmek........
Shep should worry more about his t cell count.
Whatta Stooge...
I’m not seeing any tangible giveaway from President Trump. It’s all talk currently.
BREAKING: Trump locates the Holy Grail!
U.S media responds: Is it really that Holy?
Kim did not “get it all”. But he got a lot in the form of recognition, ending military exercises, Trump adopting Kim’s position on those exercises, and Trump’s glowing praise. And what exactly did he give in return?
Trump should throw a Shep resignation into the deal. (Along with getting rid of Senate WarLord Linda)
OK, no war games - for now.
If the DPRK gets hinky, let the games begin (again)
Shep seemed to have missed that China has pulled anti-ship and Anti-aircraft missiles from he South China Sea.
I see that a big league WIN.
So is our precious little fudge packer a journalist or a political editor?
I hear he likes having his face painted too!
BREAKING: Trump invents unlimited, pollution-free energy.
U.S media responds: Trump puts thousands of global warming researchers out of work.
Nukes and planes still on Guam?
To be fair, if Shep ever said anything positive about Trump, he’d not get invited to any of those special parties.
Shep is a collusionist, never newser.
