He’s going to Singapore to meet Trumpy baby. I just have this feeling that all this sounds too good to be true. Believe me, I love seeing Trump haters bend themselves into pretzels trying to not give him credit for this success. But how do you go from a vicious mad dog dictator to lovable puppy dog overnight? Somehow something doesn’t smell right. I am glad that the prisoners were released but that’s like a robber taking your money and give it back to you and thanking them for being gracious. We’ll see how it goes. I hope we don’t end up giving Lil Dong a break and he continues his tyranny. The punk is still a punk and one of the conditions of whatever agreement comes to pass is that he’s gotta go.
I lean toward that, too. We probably need a new management in Pyongyang. Xi and Kim met and may have decided that they will go half-way, giving Trump enough to declare a win accompanied with media fanfare, who MSM will undoubtedly eat up. But I don't know exactly what Trump's eventual game plan is. He stacked up demands lately, and pressing harder on Kim.
He still has big sticks. For China, it is more trade sanctions. For N. Korea, some form of blockade(naval interdiction.)
The first step is for a large contingent of nuclear inspectors to show up in Pyongyang for denuclearization process. IAEA inspectors won't cut it. U.S. military inspectors need to show up, and should operate for extended period of time. It should be done in a short order. Could it happen? Or do they have some convert op in place to get rid of him eventually?
We will see.
