It’s important to keep in mind that could be achieved at a first meeting was achieved. All criticism at this point is fallacious not picking. Of course time will tell if the Norks live up to their commitment. Trump is only too aware of that. But North Korea did make a commitment to complete denuclearization. Did anyone expect more at an initial meeting?

Trump has succeeded where all others have failed, Benny.

And there’s not a damn thing you weak voiced, beta male, pipsqueak, whiny little faggots can do about it.

America has no further need for talking heads.

None of you know a damned thing.

Probably a fair guess.

This idiot thinks that this should resemble the battleship Missouri signing. Kim must save face, which is why Trump is acting respectfully. Trust but verify.

Trump also said that the alternative is not good.

It’s just not good.

I can only stand about a minute of Ben Shapiro’s whiny momma’s boy voice. No kidding! One of the local radio stations recently cut Medved's regular three hours down to two, and now play Shapiro for an hour. Lord, but he's annoying! F. Lee Levin has a similar voice, but he at least usually has something interesting or thought-provoking to say. This pipsqueak Shapiro just babbles and brays the tired, impotent neocon talking points at breakneck speed.

Here it comes, as expected, the "Trump accomplished nothing" meme from the Left.

My current two favorite internet presences are Jordan Peterson and Ben Shapiro.

Ben is very level headed. He didn’t like Trump for the same reasons I didn’t like Trump. The main difference is I started appreciating what Trump does a lot sooner than he did.

Shapiro is a thinker. He does not worship Trump as some do, but sees where he is strong and where he is weak. He brings a sense of reasonableness to what trump does and the real world impacts of Trump’s actions.

I take seriously anything Ben says about Trump because he has a solid track record in his analysis. He acknowledges trumps successes as well as his failures, and he brings people down to earth when they think a particular action of trump is akin to parting the red sea when it is really less spectacular. That perspective is highly valuable.

Testosterone envy. Poor Benny has genetically inferior gonads.

Shapiro is a tool of the globalists.
They are really unhappy that we have elected an all-American President.

He also walked across the DMZ and embraced President Moon. And then led Moon to the NK side of the DMZ.

If it’s just paper for Kim the it’s just paper for Trump. That means Trump can not abide by it ever bit as much as Kim and Trump for two years has shown a willingness to do just that which is why this has a chance. If Kim follows through then everyone benefits. If he doesn’t then nothing there is nothing that can’t be undone just as quickly. Didn’t send him cash or get rid of sanctions. Trump know what he’s doing

Here is a valid question: Is it weak?

Sure, it may be historic and all that, and that’s great. But what does the agreement actually say. Is Ben right?

I agree - we don’t have to like Kim but we do have to remember we’re dealing with a nuclear-armed state.

That limits our options and our goal wasn’t to force a surrender but to convert an enemy into a friend.

Trump would like to see that happen and we should applaud him for it.

“He brings a sense of reasonableness”

What benny bought to the 2016 campaign was a solid month of he and his Hag girlfriend lying about Trump’s campaign manager ‘Throwing her to the ground’. As the Romans said ‘Once a Liar, always a Liar’.
