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.
I have a long list of media folks I ignore. They are as dishonest as they are creepy. The good news is the media is completely unaware of how they come off - and in truth, they are helping Trump.
Shep will you please pull that bar stool out of your a$$!!

As far as I can tell, all anybody signed was a memorandum of understanding. I don't see anything that's binding, nor anything that irreversible.
As far as Trump letting Kim be seen as an equal, if that's what it takes to open Kim's mind to the possibilities of bringing the advanced world to North Korea, then so what? If Kim decides to join the rest of the world population, he won't be able to keep his torture chambers anymore, so that's a good thing, right?
Developing North Korea will open up a lot of business in the emerging markets which are starting to slide right now. If the emerging markets fall, the developed markets will shortly follow. Opening up North Korea for development may be the black swan change that the equity markets need right now.
Yes? No?

Lil’ Pecker Shemp had CNN feeding his Monitors today. Expect more of it with the Murdoch Bous running things.
Poor little poofter with his panties in a wad.
Shepard Smith- the only time I really ignore what’s on FoxNews
But military exercises were ended before:
“Team Spirit was a joint military training exercise of United States Forces Korea and the Military of South Korea held between 1976 and 1993. The exercise was also scheduled from 1994 to 1996 but cancelled during this time period as part of diplomatic efforts to encourage the Government of North Korea to disable the North Korean nuclear weapons program.[1] The North Korea regime abandoned talks following the January 1986 Team Spirit exercises,[2] and in late 1992, North Korea unilaterally withdrew from the South-North High-Level Talks due to the 1993 Team Spirit exercise.”

That’s a rational assessment you’ve presented. I agree.
What part of the fact that this communique was the beginning of the final agreement, which has actually already been worked on for months, do these people not understand?

Oh, they understand it.
They just hate the President.
She can be ignored.
I work for a major corporate behemoth which continues to push "diversity". Same thing. Insurance against law suits.
Shepard Sthmith- Typical Ole Miss Rebel.
Hannity ought to go down the hall and kick the scumbag’s ass.
I watched Shemp’s sniveling performance this afternoon. It was disgraceful. He should be fired from Fox immediately for being neither fair nor balanced.
Smith is just another loud noise on the airwaves to be ignored.
None of these geniuses we hear from on the left whether we want to, or not understand much of anything outside their shorts.
