You, for one, never fell for the very short-lived and surreal love affair with North Korea and Kim Jong Un as witnessed a bit on FR, Fox and Friends and other places. Those that tried to say this whole exercise was/is going nowhere were called all kinds of names in the meantime, and good Freepers like TigerLikesRooster, etc left. It was only a matter of time that it began to unravel and that it would not be OK again to openly call Pyongyang, liars and double dealing cheats they are and always were.
Oh no! TLR is gone??!!
I’ve always respected his posts.
Nobody thought bringing the NORKs into the modern world would be easy, but that doesn't mean it shouldn't be attempted - especially when we have a President who isn't afraid to wield that "big stick"....the NORKs demand Trump change his mind about easing restrictions too early and the result will be harsher restrictions - Y'all act as if it's over when the real negotiations are really just beginning....
You are comparing optimists to pessimists (realists)! I have no doubt that Trump’s real goal with the Norks was to tweak China. It may well work! Remember, just when you think you’re the smartest guy in the room...
