Sen. Chuck Schumer dismissed President Trumps sitdown with North Korea's Kim Jong Un as nothing more than a reality show summit.
Schumer, speaking on the Senate floor Tuesday, said Trump has already given up American leverage on North Korea.
Schumer said if Pyongyang doesn't give up its nuclear weapons, the "meeting alone will be a victory for North Korea and a defeat for the U.S."
Sen. David Perdue (R-Ga.) said he was similarly surprised on Tuesday, telling reporters he is very troubled by the stalling of military exercises in the region.
I was surprised, frankly, because the President had said earlier that that was not necessarily going to be part of the first meeting, Perdue, a member of the Senate Armed Services Committee said. The coordination with South Korean military is absolutely critical.

in CS’s case trump is also a NYer, maybe he’s worried?
The video is a bit Hokie until you realize that it’s intended for the the North and South Korean people to watch.
Sometimes things start with an idea. Once people have a taste of the good life and freedom, there is no going backwards.
This suprises me about Iran as you’d think there are people there who remember the good life...
But you then realize they are gone.
It will take considerable guts for Kim to pull this out. He’s purged his military and others, maybe he will. Hard to say.
You look around him, and it’s clear why he pursued nuclear weapons, he really had no choice... or maybe even giving the impression that he had them.
He was getting close very close.
Good post.
The Democrats, in their red hot hatred for Trump, are exposing just how Anti-American they truly are (and have been, especially the last 8 years, but even prior to that). Let’s hope they pay the price, one way or another, for backstabbing their fellow Americans and the country.
Chuckies knickets are in a twist
So he does next best thing
Sure he does
Chuckles just picks the anti-American POV
Like we can’t start up war games anytime we damn well please. A few months ago Trump was deriding Kim as “little rocket man”.
Frustrated much, UpChuck?
:-D
I know, it’s not like they can’t start them up again if needed. Unless I’m missing something.
Dems desperately praying for failure on this one ...
“Then Chuckie will have to vote in favor of it and hell look like a fool.”
Or even better, Chuckie will lead the Senate Dems to vote against peace and prove themselves the traitors that they really are ...
“They call them “posers” “
i call ‘em “traitors” ...
“This has the potential to place Trump among the greatest of presidents (which is astonishing even to me).”
Not me. I fully expected Trump to be one of our greatest presidents ever, even exceeding the great Ronald Reagan ...
“Schumer and his gang would welcome a nuke attack from NK over success at peace through President Trump”
i was thinking the exact same thing ...
“All the respect and praise Trump bestowed on Kim was just a negotiating tatic. He knows Kim has to save face at home.”
it’s actually much more than that: Trump is going all out to deliberately assuage Kim’s massive ego, a very, very effective technique, which costs essentially nothing, and has everything to gain ...
(ironically, the rest of the world has tried that very same technique with Trump in various trade negotiations, and have been really pissed off that it hasn’t worked.)
why doesn’t he come out and say, “it’s crumbs” like his pal Pelosi.
The DC establishment pukes, Democrat and Rinos, would bash Trump even if we all witnessed Trump meeting and talking to our Lord Jesus. People are getting sick of the bashers and karma is bound to set in one of these days
I’d like to crush Cuck Scummer’s larynx with my teeth.
It's happening all across the country. More and more voters are waking up, every day, to the way they've been lied to and manipulated by the venal Fake Newstards. This is glorious to watch.
