Yep... Here's just one scenario: Kim proposes the same terms of "Iranian deal" that he knows Trump rejected but the UN, EU et al like or accept as the best possible solution that could have been reached. Who'll be "isolated" then?
Yes, that has to be one of the more likely scenarios if Kim Jong-Un is not truly ready to make the complete concessions. He would storm away from the negotiations, publicizing to the world that he offered to accept essentially the same deal that Iran already made with the previous US admin.
Under that scenario, NK would try to rally “world” opinion (and especially South Korean, UN, China and Russsia, etc.) to his side in favor of such a b.s. deal. That won’t really help him vs. POTUS Trump, but it certainly could have been effective against most of the squishes in US leadership over recent decades.

I haven’t seen you on this board in years (but I was away a lot, so maybe you have been around when I wasn’t).
I always found you to be one of the most informative and thoughtful people around, so I hope you will grace us all with your presence as often as possible.
Good health and cheer to you!
