Trump cancels Singapore summit with North Korean leader Kim Jong Un
CNBC ^

Posted on 05/24/2018 6:52:24 AM PDT by bryan999

President Donald Trump wrote a letter to North Korean leader Kim Jong Un saying that their planned summit next month in Singapore was cancelled.

The meeting, which would have marked the first face-to-face encounter between a sitting U.S. president and a North Korean leader, was set for June 12 in the southeastern Asian island city state.

"Sadly, based on the tremendous anger and open hostility displayed in your most recent statement, I feel it is inappropriate, at this time, to have this long-planned meeting," Trump wrote in the letter, which was released Thursday morning.

First public statement, from Donald Trump himself, about my June 12, Sungapre prediction made 2 days ago. Oddly, my algorithms are still predicting the meeting, with a possible change of venue to Japan. Go figure:

Trump wants Peace... Not the Peace Prize...

Loosely translated, the letter said the following:

“Dear Rocketman,

You really screwed the pooch by attacking Mike Pence. I’m pulling out of the meeting as a sign of respect to him, and to show you that you aren’t dealing with that pussy, Obama.

By the way, you missed an opportunity to receive a big bribe and to have your power guaranteed against outside threat, but you blew it.

If you take your meds and regain some degree of mental balance, we can meet in the future. But until then, we still have 3 carrier battle groups surrounding your shithole country, plus a bunch of nuclear-armed bombers that even the Russians and Chinese can’t shoot down, let alone your little pop-guns.

Sleep with one eye open.

The Donald”

Trump made the right decision with his withdrawal from the Korea summit; I am willing to bet that it will just be moved back and go ahead anyways. (Video tomorrow elaborating on this.) Basically, this is how one MUST respond to insult in Asian politics.

I expect NK will come back to the table in due time

After taking out the top layer of his Generals.

Sends message to Trump:

Sorry for the delay...had some house cleaning to do.

Trump gets the hostages to crow about. Norks get nada. First round knock down by Trump. Bad juju for Kimmie. Can ‘rocket man’ even get up from the mat?

Back in the 80’s I learned a very important lesson from our beloved President Ronald Reagan.

One has NO POWER in Negotiations if one is not willing to walk away from the table.

The similarity of these two events just occurred to me.

To: left that other site

So... wait a minute, some North Korean babe lobs an insult at Mike Pence, so now Trump’s pulling out of the meeting and risking nuclear war?

Am I missing something here?

"POTUS got the hostages and some demolition at the NK nuke site.

A lot of people believe that nuke site was already demolished when the last missal they tried to fire blew up during launch.

Great letter.

The media can promote the false narrative that the WH is in disarray, what I see is one really great "writer" and some world class diplomacy - I guess I'm watching the facts and the media is listening to the experts at their liberal cocktail parties.

Well, perhaps you could toss a few more words in there and clue me in.

ReallY? Fake letter too? All the fake $hit is beyond ridiculous. I guess the MSM does this to destroy the alternate news credibility.
