Your Daddy Trump told us all that we were there.

Now he says otherwise.

First, I'm glad you recognize you are acting like a toddler. Good for you. Unfortunately, like a toddler, you don't appear capable of listening and comprehending.

"Sources" saying Vietnam is the site of the second Trump/Kim meeting.

Summit called to an early end, no agreements reached (not unexpectedly), not even a symbolic and vague statement of cooperation this time. POTUS did manage to absolve Kim of Otto Warmbier's death by torture in a North Korea prison camp though, so there's that. Maybe at least this time POTUS won't tweet-declare the end of the NK nuclear threat on the way home.

Meanwhile, North and South Korea are engaging independently of The US while Kim stalls and strings us along. US sanctions won't mean dick if (nuclear-armed) North and South Korea integrate their economies.

There is peace since POTUS took office.
Had HRC been elected, I'd play my hand on war.

Surely peace is worth something?

We just escaped the last POTUS who dropped a record 16k bombs his last year in office all for a greedy congress who makes money on those "war" efforts.

It's odd that you fail to see both parties, MSM and everyone in between against POTUS, knowing they want war for profit. They are screaming because POTUS is screwing their cash cow for now.

Right on cue Huck shows up to bash Trump on NK even though basically nothing happened while he still ignores that the only reason NK and SK are talking is because of Trump.

Depends.

Talking to the US president gives cred to a murderous dictator. Which is OK if you get something out of it. Talks were cut short today because of lack of progress.

What have we given up? What have we gotten?

Less dependence on China in these negotiations and direct dialogue. An easing of tensions from the "Rocketman" days when everyone swore Trump was going to get us into a nuclear war.

Haven't seen much given up so far.

you have to admit "fire and fury" is a threat of nuclear war. It was a hollow threat but NK is crazy.

So far the Trump doctrine resulted in direct dialogue.

The Clinton doctrine resulted in giving DPRK light water nuclear reactors and providing them heating oil to free up tgeir cash for their nuclear program.

Obama's doctrine (everywhere else) was covertly giving away hundreds of millions of dollars, drawing imaginary red lines and leading from behind....basically showing weakness, supporting wildly destructive internecine religious wars and providing ready cash to their source of funding.

I'll take Trump's doctrine any day.

It's odd you think I'm screaming.

And Cuba is changing its constitution to add more personal and market freedoms.

Didn't say *you* were screaming but I apologize for the use of the word. There are people screaming about it all over my FB page.

And so what? North Korea's constitution guarantees personal liberties too.

You're gonna have to show where Obama publicly absolved the Castros for the killing of an American prisoner like Trump just did with Kim, because I don't remember anything like that at all. I don't remember Obama ever saying he was "friends" with the Castros either. I get buttering up a negotiation partner and limiting negative public comments, but there are smarter ways to go about that than what we've seen.

Meanwhile, the Warmbier's understandably aren't thrilled with what he said.

That is true. But it goes the other way also. All the people falling on their swords for Trump because they like some of his policies, would be the first to condemn those who supported Obama if Obama had conducted himself in the same manner as Trump. They would have said his behaviour should be a disqualifier for presidency, regardless of how much you like his policies. (BTW - I'm not an Obama supporter). There is a lot of hypocrisy in the Republican Party right now.

Trump stops that dead in tracks and negotiations are held under beliefs the dictator has stopped his barbarism

And once again that chicken chit Trumps, takes the side of brutal dictator/killer (Kim) relative to the NK regime killing an American citizen. (Otto W). Just like he takes the side of Putin, and MBS. Way to go Trumps. Cozy up to dictators who kill our people because you are so small that you just want those thugs to like you!. Great leadership. Trumps should be ashamed.

Haven't seen him walk on water yet. What business success he has had is in large part due to inheritance and following the recommendations of advisors. The policies he wants to pursue can be accomplished without his whimsical methodology. Unless luck prevails, his methods are going to be his downfall. The Southern District of NY is going to be a serious problem for he and his family.
