Kim thinks Trump, like Bubba, wants a deal at any price.
To preserve his Nobel Prize bid, Trump is willing to give in on points.
Kim thinks he has leverage with the summit. He loses nothing if he walks away.
Estimates have NK treasury running completely out of cash by October.
Kim walks away, tighten sanctions. Safety off.
“To preserve his Nobel Prize bid, Trump is willing to give in on points.”
This Nobel prize thing I think was a prank of some sort to begin with and I have a feeling Trump probably does not care one way or the other if he gets it. It’s really a badge lefties give lefties for doing nothing, such as obama ang Gore. To get that prize puts the recipient in that same class.
So I really do not think that so called prize plays into this at all, at least as far as Trump himself is concerned. He wants results, not some sillyassed leftist medal.
“To preserve his Nobel Prize bid, Trump is willing to give in on points.”
That’s f*cking ridiculous. As if the Nobel Peace Prize is all of that which is emblematic of truly great leadership, etc. Trump doesn’t see himself as being ‘up there’ with Obama. Why should he be so anxious for some rinky-dink Nobel Peace Prize when he has bigger fish to fry, including Obama!
Kim is wrong.
Trump will walk, point the full force of America’s military might at NK and squeeze China harder.
Something tells me this is staged so Kim can look strong to his people.
Kim is trying to frame himself as victim, so he takes this suicide course.
“You’ll be sorry when I am dead and gone, and it’s all YOUR fault!”
Not a highly responsible individual. Maybe he does not trust his capabilities in dealing
with Donald Trump directly.
We are not at all sure the Kim understands what “moral standing” actually means.
