collusion with Korea!
Sometimes a basketball just isn’t enough.
I couldn’t stop laughing, thinking of heads exploding. President Trump and Mike Pompeii walking out to the SUV with the North Koreans, shaking hands, posing for pictures, waving goodbye to them. I’m assuming they were ignoring everything the protocol know-it-alls told them.
Keeping the back channels open. Something the establishment and the previous so-called president had/has no interest in.
More than meets the eye. NK is not a short term issue....
Whatever Trump is for, the MSM is against.
So NK going back and forth has their head spinning.
Trump is following his instincts. He knows how touchy the Norkies are in matters of pride, so he rolls out the red carpet and gives them a bit of a show. It doesn’t cost anything, but it makes them feel better.
He’s also “talking past the sale”. Everything he’s doing now is to give the Norkies the impression that there will be a deal, it will be a good deal, and that there will be immediate and tangible benefits from that deal.
And the other option was?? The media are such idiots.
he was treated far better than Obama treated Netanyahu... but President Trump is a far more gracious person than is Obama.
Instead of bringing Kim Jong Un’s number-two unceremoniously through a side door
R E. S. P. E. C. T
He is showing it and will therefore receive it. Goes a long was in making a long term deal.
Maybe more than anything it’s what Lil Kim has wanted. Now he has fired or replaced three military leaders. Wonder whose idea that was?
Also notice that the NK were dressed in tailored western business suit attire complete with a small lapel flag pin. Nice touch
A Lib Senator says we should have helped them financially. 'You mean like Iraq with 150 Billion Dollars, and yet Iraq is not living up to their end of the agreement'.
Another Lib Senator says North Korea has a bad human rights record! 'You mean like Iraq?'
A 3rd Senator says won't North Korea just start building Nukes in 10 years once Trump is gone? 'You mean like Iraq?'
Yep, it’s killing them to see Trump pull this off:
” It will be nothing short of miraculous if this administration, with an inexperienced commander-in-chief and vacancies at almost every level of its diplomatic corps, can pull off what has never before been done.”
It’s all about positioning and posturing when doing these type of deals. President Trump is a master of negotiating contortions. Best said is just watch and learn......forget any Media “analysis.” They haven’t a clue.
I thought that envelope might have contained some tasty buds — a truly poignant peace offering.
Not so, ANGRIA!
In typical Trumpian fashion, he's placed himself in a no-lose situation.
Here’s an interesting take on it. https://threadreaderapp.com/thread/1002664653959278592.html
