HANOI, Vietnam — Talks between U.S. President Donald Trump and North Korea's Kim Jong Un are wrapping up earlier than expected.

White House press secretary Sarah Sanders told reporters on Thursday that "negotiations are still ongoing" between the two delegations. Trump and Kim were scheduled to have lunch but did not enter the dining room where reporters were assembled.

I’m guessing Kim wanted sanctions lifted before he does much of anything. Who knows.

Call that a learned behavior, taught by those masters, Clinton, Bush & Obama.

#nevertrumpers always delight in posting here if they think they can score points against Trump on something.

They are bumbs because they have no solutions to anything. They are more like stealth leftists.

They are stinking neocon smartazzes.

Not necessarily, Trump has gone out of his way to not have Kimmy lose face.

Pakistan and India 2 nuke powers waited till this week to act up.

They smelled deals and Trump said sorry Kim, this has nothing to do with you but if I give you candy they want candy.

It actually didn’t go wrong as I see it...

The status quo is better than the (prior)situation of three years ago And, while Kim is likely more disappointed than Trump DPRK is under sanctions and USA is not ...Further there is still a friendly atmosphere and talk goes on. Xi and Trump will meet soon and what comes of that will have an effect on the US-Korea entanglement.

So as some are saying...Where did it all go wrong ? ... It didn’t.

Kim Un is the ‘puppit’ Trump knows the Nuclear hardliners control, which is why we keep seeing Trump warm up to Kim.....He’s playing Kim against them when possible because Kim wants his country to modernize and get out of this loop the hardliners continue to lay out there every time.

If you watch the video where the reporter mentions a “liason office” Trump jumped on it and said he liked the idea and wanted to hear what they would say about it...(Trump set up as Kim could respond or not on the spot), just as Kim began hardliner “Ri” quickly spoke up only to realize he had just revealed who carries the real weight in NKorea and as quick ‘allowed’ Kim to speak his mind.

N.Korea is all about smoke and mirrors....this was a breathtaking look at Trump bringing this guy “Ri” out from under the skirt of Kim and expose him....it was a beautiful thing to watch Trump operate..he knew exactly what he was doing.

Kim is now considered in the Pacific Rim and around the world as the leader who lost face as POTUS, Donald J. Trump taught him his first lesson in successful negotiations>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

Presidnt Trump showed Kim the wood shed and said,” Rocket Man, you do not want to go in there, especially with me.”

Kim was shocked at the detail of US INTEL resources. Kim thought he could conceal his nuclear ordnance and conduct a grift on President Trump. Kim got his a$$ very gently handed to him this time, and the message is.” No more f**king around!”

Kim will remember that woodshed and what might be lurking there. I predict this likely will be the last we see of Kim for quite a while, unless he can man up to what he promised instead of posturing and fooling around.

Kim wants to keep his nukes and reunify the Koreas under a power share agreement. PDJT is having none of it without full de-nuking.

We are actually very close to war with North Korea.

The Chinese, The North Koreans, the rest of the world nations, The Democrat Party got its lessons on hardball negotiation from the master negotiator, USA, POTUS, Donald J. Trump.

The Chinese & North Koreans as Communists have not the slightest, least idea of what a hardball back & forth Negotiation is like. And...that is also true of most Democrats, many who have not worked an honest day in their entire life, let alone know how to negotiate.

Trump rules the field and made the Chinese, the North Koreans, the USA Democrat Party....the fools and amateurs they really are. Bottom line...Trump now has the upper hand on negotiations and true intelligence feedback and information.

I wonder if the sudden walk-out was planned by both leaders so they could go home and say, “See we are being tough on the other guys!” Then they could come back and agree to some of the things they did not agree to on this trip. And now that the South Korean leader has said he will involve himself again, he can continue to bridge the gap and keep the negotiating process moving forward.

No, I don’t think it was planned though it was clear before they met that if things did not go accordingly ‘walking away’ was certainly on the table. That’s how Trump works...because walking away is also a deal.

That’s why Pence is NOT the man for 2024.

2020 is a slam dunk for Trump and America.

But for 2024 we need another Trump - no nonsense and someone who is ready, willing, and able to take all the Leftist flame-throwing to restore our Free Constitutional Republic.

We need to see the REAL guy SOON!
