Yes, he could. President Trump tried to tell him with that video at the first summit.

Oh, goodness. Busted. Did you find my secret CFR decoder ring and the Bilderberg code log books down under a park bench by accident down by 23rd and H Street N.W., or something? Oh boy wait till the hear of this. Dammit, now I have to fill out a 12 FAM 090 Security Violation Report form to take up to the the fourth floor and it will take all weekend, and we had been planning to go to Kent Island for crabs with some former Skull and Bones friends to plot takeover of another conservative website.

Honestly. Don't even begin to waste bandwidth, nor any more, not even a minute, of my 21 years here on FR--if you have no handle on anything related to Korea or have no insight to share on this issue. Thank you very much. That will be all.

The Chinese are getting worried about Trump’s resiliance. I assume they had been betting on the coup. Their last card to play is Little Rocket Man before they fold. The president’s got this.

Partner, you hit a homerun with this statement.

The ChiComs has been stealing our technology and they want our industries to build their American plants in China and provide technology to run the plant.

We have lost so much technology to these so called preferred supplier partnership programs in China that we have lost a lot of our jobs to the Chicoms.

North Korea will be dealt with harshly by launching this missile.

The Chinese economy will never recover without our technology.

Thanks. Sadly, it didn’t matter.

Still, it was put out there and everyone was able to see it in the light of day.

[ Sounds nuts but...

Have you ever wondered if the Norks have sometimes acted as a Deep State asset..?

It’s funny.

Every time the libs find themselves on the ropes?

Something like this happens.

It’s....eerie. ]

It sounds like a tin-foil hat conspiracy theory until you crack a history book and realize how damned in bed with the Commies FDR’s administration was and how the USA’s Deep State betrayed Shang Ki Shek, and the whole John Birch affair....

Then you really have to wonder....

then you realize they rule on behalf... they rule OVER US and the ENTIRE WORLD ALREADY...

[ He had to try. Now it’s time for the stick. ]

In the past we never seemed to have a president who was unafraid to BOTH punish bad behavior and reward good behavior...

Trump has shown to Kim that he can be NICE, but he is also gonna show KIM he can also counter punch if you try to screw him.

I think the best approach here might be to reflect on FR history which is all archived. Are you happy to examine your posts in the Singapore Hoopla period, and after that for a number of long months, leading up to just before then Hanoi debacle (where the President finally took some good advice for a change around him (Bolton, Pompeo, Beigun), dialed it back and confronted the Norks with an envelope with what we knew about them)?

We can certainly re-live what I posted as well. We will see who had a better handle on the situation and called it right all along. You have had my examples of how appeasement was engaged in, going back to last year. If you cannot find those, or chose to ignore them, then sad to say that is entirely your problem. I am not going to do your homework for you. sorry.

>>>Barely a week out from Kim Jong Un’s meeting with Vladimir Putin in Vladivostok

But I’m sure that much like Putin assured the President that he was “not looking” to get involved in Venezuela,” he probably said the same of North Korea.

PS I never said Trump had a right or it would be understandable if her were sore or angry. However, actually...In case you were sharp enough to catch it, I was referring to one FR poster named “Doughty One” on that one,

Here is the link to the video report earlier this morning by YTN TV in South Korea, giving details of what was known at the time of this launch into Sea of Japan.

https://youtu.be/TxAsrbJ_NCQ

and another one:

https://youtu.be/8pSIMJtWKFI

Second one is titled: 北 단거리 미사일 발사...배경과 의도는? / YTN

Speculation they might have used a KN series on this one. Up to 200 km, into Sea of Japan, but did not enter Japan EEZ zone.

Also from KBS TV Seoul: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=amh27ltPbMo

I laid it out for you.  Exactly how the happiness of finally confronting the issue played out, nobody was unrealistic about the true outcomes.  People were very happy that we had a president who finally took up the issue in a manner that intimaed it would be resolved one way or another.

It's one of the toughest nuts to crack there is, and yet you act as if Trump really blew it at most turns, and revealed himself to be a blustering buffoon.

You're the blustering buffoon.


Are you happy to examine your posts in the Singapore Hoopla period, and after that for a number of long months, leading up to just before then Hanoi debacle (where the President finally took some good advice for a change around him (Bolton, Pompeo, Beigun), dialed it back and confronted the Norks with an envelope with what we knew about them)?

You can dig up anything you like.  I don't post stuff on the forum for it not to be seen.  Knock yourself out.

As for negotiations taking different circuitous routes, I'm sure that has never happened before.  This drivel you post is just moronic.  You think you're scoring points.  It's just ignorance on display.

You take every little thing and blow it out of the water like Maxine Waters or that Cortez nut-job would.

Trump is going to use every trick in the book.  Whether he is successful or not, it's not as if anyone would be guaranteed to succede with this guy.

You yourself have been posting for months that Kim can't be trusted.  Then when Trump does something you go all skitzoid on us and start trashing him as if he just ruined any chance of a deal.  You criticize him, the people he takes with him, the tactics he uses, and anything else you can pull out of your a--.

Which is it ace?  Can negotiations with Kim work or not?  If not, why are you so frantically criticizing Trump's methods moment to moment?


We can certainly re-live what I posted as well.

I've seen some of the things you posted, and remembering quite well your inability to sound any more reasoned in any of them, I'll take a pass on that.  Of course you're welcome to embarrass yourself futher if you like.


We will see who had a better handle on the situation and called it right all along.

You haven't called one thing right worth mentioning, that I've seen you mention so far.  You've carped like a six year old angry that someone took his snack at school, whining to his mommy.  "Uh, I told everyone Kim was not to be trusted!  See, I was right.  I was the only one that was right.  Want me to go pack and prove to you I was right?"

Do you know how juvenile you come off.  None of us were convinced Kim was going to roll over.
 These are the sorts of thing you thought you and you alone knew.  It was laughable then.  It's laughable now.  In truth it would be humiliating to anyone with half a clue.

You have had my examples of how appeasement was engaged in, going back to last year.

I asked you at least once before, and possibly two times when we exchaged words.  Neither time did you dane to inform me with your incredible knowledge base of how Trump appeased Kim.

If you cannot find those, or chose to ignore them, then sad to say that is entirely your problem.

Not my problem.  You were asked, and couldn't respond on point.  It only takes a sentence or two.  Man up.  I know that's a lot to ask.

I know how angry it made you when Hillary lost, but Trump is our president now, and most Conservatives wish to support his efforts, even if you think you are ten times smarter.  I'm certainly not buying it.


I am not going to do your homework for you. sorry.

Sorry is right.  You incessant carping about Trump's efforts with regard to North Korea has already revealed that..

Since that wasn’t even coherent, I’ll just leave it out there as more evidence of your abilities.

And to the jack ball who puts tags on FR stories that don't conform to his or her's narrative and might make them uncomfortable, probably someone who has no facts, the "weak source" referring to Sankei Shimbun in Japan here, is none other than this "weak source of a major conservative daily newspaper" (SANKEI):

Sankei Shimbun (産経新聞 Sankei Shinbun, literally "Industrial and Economic Newspaper") is a daily newspaper in Japan published by the Sankei Shimbun Co., Ltd. (株式会社産業経済新聞社 Kabushiki-gaisha Sangyō Keizai Shinbunsha).The Sankei is the abbreviated name of Sangyō Keizai. It has the sixth highest circulation for a newspapers in Japan, and is considered one of the five leading "national" newspapers.[3]

The Sankei Shimbun is part of the Fujisankei Communications Group and is 40% owned by Fuji Media Holdings. The company is also the owner of Osaka Broadcasting Corporation (OBC, Radio Osaka

Fuji Sankei Communications was the sponsor of former President Ronald Reagan's 1989 visit to Japan.

Just as I expected. Afraid of your posting history on this topic. Oh well, can’t have everything I guess. Good luck. Tip o’ the old hat sir.

Would you like to state specifically what information you have in terms of having an issue with "Sankei Shimbun" Daily news in Japan as a news source provided here on FR? This source has been linked and provided by me, TLR, a number of others here for at least 20 years regarding Korean or Japanese issues, particularly breaking. You can use Google Translate if you would like the full details. Is this a sudden objection on your part about SANKEI?

This as the source here. Why don't you state what was an inaccurate source. Do you assess the same of YTN? Of KBS-TV? How about Yonhap News, or Yomiuri and Mainichi over in Japan? NHK? They are also all involved in reporting today.
