I question Susan Wright's fitness for prison.

It's gonna be rough, little gurl. You gonna be big momma's bitch.

The brilliant Susan Rice has risked decades in prison for her conduct on behalf of Clinton and has the temerity to question others’ judgment.
Moron.

They attended TOP liberal universities and were thoroughly and happily indoctrinated.

These two dried-up broads carrying on about “presence of mind” are mostly projecting about their own condition and with full knowledge that Pelosi is the poster child for a lack of “presence of mind” but won’t say it.

If nothing else, Rice is being too cute by half to obscure what she clearly knows from her time in government and that is that these “talks” never occur on the fly or in the moment. Everything has been choreographed down to the second by underlings who have parsed every word in the key points of discussion through a long series of pre-meetings. Both principals will be fully briefed on the agreed points and matters for further negotiation. Every alternative has a prescribed counter-point and nothing is left to chance.

Yes, I know Trump prides himself on negotiation skills but he also uses the talent around him to maximum effect in achieving the final goals of the negotiation. Because the underlings have done the scut work, the principals can work at a higher level to achieve the best advantage for their position. Trump won’t let the underlings paint him into a corner or keep him from a strategic pivot when doing so achieves something of higher value.

It is high risk only if Trump goes into the summit believing he can’t leave without a deal. Any deal. A deal for the sake of a deal.

I remember Reagan walked away from Gorby.

These liberal democrats and MSM obammaites would complain and be negative about any good thing from Trump even if Trump gave them a Gold Figgerine.

she warned an unsuccessful meeting could increase the risk of conflict.

There is definitely some truth to that statement. It depends on whether we send in politicians or negotiators.

This is nothing but denigration of Trump.

The man has been conducting high stakes negotiations for the last 40 years, and this wing-nut takes him to task.

How much experience did Obama have in high-stakes negotiations?

ZERO! That’s part of the reason we called him ZERO. It’s part of the reason his achievements for the U. S. in international negotiations was ZERO.

Let me translate for those of you from Rio Linda:

"Trump will not promote our Progressive Policies. He expects results. He means to fix this problem. He has to be stopped at any costs!"

As long as Trump knows that the objective of the Norks is to cheat, he will do fine.

This from the woman who lied on 5 networks to protect our first White Feather President.

I guess she’s taking a break from the Russia nonsense.

Obama's negotiations were the very definition of feckless. When it was over, the other side gave up nothing, while Obama gave more than was originally demanded. High Risk? With Trump, at least, you are in the game.

For further study, see "bales of cash left on Iranian tarmac"

Is Russia still on the radar? I had thought it had been swamped by the tsunami of new developments and initiatives from the Trump White House, you know, the North Korea thing, the butt-kicking new tack on tariffs on steal, er, steel and aluminum, and pursuit of deportation of the DACA “Dreamers”, which seems to be back on the table since Congress would do nothing to protect their status by legislation.

Oh, yeah, and the distance-and-direction urination contest with the mayors of “sanctuary cities”.

Not necessarily an “activist” President, but a very active one.

Is this what multi-tasking REALLY looks like?

Rice is a confirmed LIAR and political hack.
