Sen. Chuck Schumer dismissed President Trump’s 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.”

I say if leftists want to continue to off themselves like Anthony Bourdain and Kate Spade, I say let them..its a win/win

[drellberg]

No one gets to the position (for years) of being Senate or House Minority Leader without having a rather high IQ.

I cannot for the life of me figure out why neither CS nor NPelosi would parse their words at least a little bit more carefully. Hedge their bets. What if President Trump is right — as he likely is — and the North Koreans begin nearly immediately to begin dismantling their nuclear infrastructures? How positively stupid these two will look!!!!

“In his haste to reach an agreement, President Trump elevated North Korea to the level of the United States while preserving the regime’s status quo,” House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) said in a scathing statement.

Funny how Democrats "grow a pair" when an actual leader makes real progress but meek as lambs when Obama and Clinton were actually funding the Nork's nuclear and missile programs.

The younger generation has a apt term for these people.

They call them "posers"

Does anyone in the world really believe Noko was “raised to the level of the US”?

“There is absolutely nothing that Trump can do to please Schumer and democrats and the liberal media.”

Cuck Schumer. That’s all that needs to be said.

[kiryandil]

On the plus side, drafting this statement made Schucks take the morning off from his daily pedophile orgies...

What have YOU done, Chuckie, besides bitch?

[nikos1121]

The work begins, I will grant them that, but with Reagan, what assurance did he have that the Russians would adhere to their agreement.

Secondly, we’re talking about a treaty that will be presented to Congress.

Verify is the key, so why not just support the president instead of demeaning him?

Scummer went on to say: “All Trump did was nearly-cinch that 30 million people will not be incinerated in a nuclear fire. That is so trivial, barely worth notice. WE are banning GUNS! That is the real win here!”

Pelosi is the minority leader due only to her fundraising. She doesn’t have two brain cells to rub together.

” How positively stupid these two will look!!!!”

They look stupid now.

[RedMonqey]

Surprised no one has beaten the teeth out of Schucks’ face...

Too bad dueling was made illegal way back when..

Politicians had to be more careful with their words or be a very good shot.

Heck, I remember a Yankee senator from Massachusetts got caned for inferring another senator was sleeping with his slaves.

I'd buy Trump a very good hickory or ash cane and point him in the general direction of Schmer's present location.

It was a more polite society back then.

I will probably get flamed but seriously, at this point in my life I would be happy just to punch the idiot Libs in the face than “discuss” issues with them. I know I have anger management issues-—but the time for getting along is way overdue—F them——
