Why is it that the #NeverTrump crowd can never celebrate President Trump’s historic achievements? Trump has had the most successful first 500 days in presidential history.
And on the world stage President Trump is putting American interests first — something we have not seen in decades.

After President Trump’s historic summit meeting wtih Kim Jong Un Ben Shapiro went on FOX and Friends and threw water on the fire.
Ben told the morning crew, “The president’s praise for the dictator of North Korea was disquieting… The paper that was signed yesterday was weak.”
Ben, who is a favorite of the DC establishment, then went on slam the Trump administration for putting US flags next to the North Korean flags.
So what is the difference between Ben Shapiro and what you would hear on MSNBC or CNN this morning?
How awful.

Notice the similarities....................
:-D
Have you ever heard Ben talk about Hogg? Slices and dices. It’s comical.
So, I’m partially caught up in my reading, and I’m wondering...other than the handshake, what did we get that Bill Clinton didn’t get?
In real terms, not pomp and circumstance.
I didn’t like his smart alec remarks either. He seemed to escape from the Wax Museum. Also Ainsley does ask some of the dumbest questions. Trump is trying to set this up and she asks a guest, “Will this help Trump in the next election”.
So which is a better strategy? Oversell or undersell?
Have you ever had a chance to read the “Art of the Deal?” It will help you understand lot of how President Trump does things. If you haven’t I suggest you should.
Ben and his self-serving, arrogant, anti-Trump cohorts need to open their eyes, wake up, and realize they aren’t relevant any longer. In fact, they never were. Their jig is up so to speak.
I call her Ainsley Airhead. She’s pretty, probably means well but her presence on the curvy couch diminishes FNF.
A Neo-Con Soy Boy.

Unstained clothing.
But she’s sweet though, and I hear she likes people.
“Unstained clothing.”
A handshake and unstained clothing are two net adds over Clinton’s nuke deal with Norklandia.
Anyone else?
Soupy Sales? There’s a blast from the past!
I don’t know how I got on the distribution list for his daily bull$hit, but I unsubscribed him about a week ago. He’s just a self-serving a$$hole!
These gutter scum, and their big defense donors, get rich on war. That why they are always beating the war drum.
Ask yourself this, why has the USA seem to be in a perpetual state of war since 1988? We always bombing, “no fly zoning” or overthrowing someone?
Shaprio and his ilk are the PR whores for the Perpetual War caucus. They cannot stand anything that reduces their chances to get rich off US’s Military's blood.
My take has always been the more beta the male, the bigger the bombast about spilling other people’s blood to prove how “tough” they think they are.
Shapiro is a case in point. A complete Omega, he desperately tries to posture like a tough guy here to compensate.
Sure, it may be historic and all that, and thats great. But what does the agreement actually say. Is Ben right?
Reporters provide facts. Pundits should provide perspective.
Is it weak? Perhaps, but not for a first agreement with North Korea.
Cheap Labor Express stooges.
They complain he is not diplomatic enough, then complain when he engages in diplomacy. They are idiots.

Little history:
May 29, 2017 -North Korea fired a Short Range Ballistic Missile into the Sea of Japan. It traveled 450 km.[42]
June 8, 2017 -North Korea fired several missiles into the Sea of Japan. They are believed to be anti-ship missiles.[43]
The South Korean military said the launches show the reclusive regime’s “precise targeting capability.”
June 23, 2017 -North Korea tested a new rocket engine that could possibly be fitted to an intercontinental ballistic missile.[44]
July 4, 2017 -North Korea tested its first intercontinental ballistic missile (ICBM) named Hwasong-14 on July 4.[45][46] It launched from the Panghyon Aircraft Factory 8 km southeast of Panghyon Airport.[47] It was aimed straight
up at a lofted trajectory and reached more than 2,500 km into space.[48] It landed 37 minutes later,[49] more than 930 km from its launch site,[50] into Japan’s exclusive economic zone.[51] Aiming long, the missile would have traveled 7,0008,000 km or more, reaching Alaska, Hawaii, and maybe Seattle.[49][52][53][54][55] Its operational range would be farther, bringing a 500 kg payload to targets in most of the contiguous United States 9,700 km away.[56][57][58]
July 28, 2017 -The 14th missile test carried out by North Korea in 2017 was another ICBM launched at 23:41 North Korea time (15:41 GMT) from Chagang Province in the north of the country on July 28, 2017. Los Angeles, Denver, Chicago, Boston, and New York appear to be within range.[59] The missile’s reentry vehicle (RV) was seen by people in Japan as it entered the atmosphere and landed near the northernmost Japanese island, Hokkaido.[60][61] Analysis later revealed that the RV broke up on re-entry; further testing would be required.[62] The CIA made an assessment expecting adequate performance of the RV under the different stresses of a shallower trajectory towards the continental US.[63]
August 26, 2017 -North Korea test-fired three short-range ballistic missiles from the Kangwon province on August 26. Two travel approximately 250 kilometers in a northeastern direction and one explodes immediately after launch.[64]
August 29, 2017 -On August 29, 2017, at 6 AM local time, North Korea launched a ballistic missile over Northern Japan.[65] The missile’s short and low trajectory and its breakup into three pieces is consistent with the failure of a heavy post-boost vehicle.[66]
September 15, 2017 -North Korea launched a ballistic missile on September 15 from Sunan airfield. It reached a height of 770 km and flew a distance of 3,700 km for 17 minutes over Hokkaido before landing in the Pacific.[67]
November 28, 2017 -North Korea launched an ICBM from the vicinity of Pyongsong at 1:30pm EST/3:00am Pyongyang time. The rocket traveled for 50 minutes and reached 2800 miles (4,500 km) in height, both of which were new milestones. The missile flew 600 miles (1,000 km) east into the Sea of Japan; unlike summer launches, the Japanese government did not issue cellphone alerts to warn its citizens. North Korea called it a Hwasong-15 missile. Its potential range appears to be more than 8,000 miles (13,000 km), able to reach Washington and the rest of the continental United States.[68][69] Much about the missile is unknown. The missile might have been fitted with a mock warhead to increase its range, in which case the maximum missile range while carrying a heavy warhead might be shorter than 13,000 km. Based on satellite imagery, some experts believe that North Korea may now be able to fuel missiles horizontally, shortening the delay between when a missile becomes visible to when it can be launched.[68] The rocket is believed to have broken up on re-entry into the atmosphere.[70]
