    A 34 year old who inherited a family dynasty, spends all his time in "The Hermit Kingdom" and knows little of the outside world, is more sophisticated and better educated than Donald Trump? Are you dealing with your feelings or facts here?
    In fact his new way of diplomacy is working, as was eveidnet in Singapore.. Have you heard much from ISIS recently?

    You said China was not a cult of personality, but Mao's party remains in power anyway, and he was certainly had a cult following, especially among leftists.

    Remember the left ranting that President Trump was a madman leading us to WW3 with his "fire, fury and power such as the world has never seen" in relation to Kim Jung Un? I'm confident Kim Jung Un does. That Kim Jung Un believes President Trump may truly be a madman who may just do that is not a negative aspect in negotiations. No one is more dangerous than a madman with the ability to destroy you. Kim Jung Un, a madman himself, definitely understands the concept.

    It is an amazing sales pitch, to explain to Kim Jung Un they BOTH are GREAT leaders by virtue of being powerful leaders, explains that as great leaders they should work together for greater wealth, power and prosperity, rather than a contest to see who can destroy the other - with Kim Jung Un knowing without a doubt in the end who would win a warfare power contest. This isn't the 1950s. We can destroy any place on earth we want to, with zero risk from N. Korea to us at all. President Trump has the trump card, and Kim Jung Un knows it. But, wisely, President Trump is nice and positive in his pitch of "hey, let's be friends! The USA can be a GREAT friend. Reallyl Let's be friends. I really don't want to have to destroy you. Let's both be great and powerful leaders and pals. Let's shake on that - mutual pals rather than you are destroyed."

    1. A nuke in a shipping container is as effective as it is on the tip of an ICBM.

    2. Are you suggesting that America does not have any strategic national interest in that theater?

    3. Are you advocating for America and russia and china and india etc etc to also stop continuing to think in terms of warfare? Nice fantasy.

    Its a simpleton sales pitch with lots of flash and no substance at all.

    He strokes the ego of a mass murdering international criminal. He gave this cretin the thumbs up.

    Obama got roasted by you guys because you thought he "bowed" to the King of SA. But Trump kissing this scumbag's butt is "smart stuff". I'm all for negotiations, but that kind of obsequious arse kissing of scumbags, is shameful.

    It's not often leftists speaking out so strongly against communists dictators. Good for you.

    But all Trump is saying is give peace a chance.

    We are living in strange times my friends. The U.S. is shunning western allies and making BFF with Russia, China, and now NK.

    Those on the right, can you honestly tell me that if Obama did this there wouldn't be a furious uprising amongst citizens? Any veterans watching this have to be shaking their heads.

    Trump wants the Nobel at any price. He is a narcissist. That is his goal, a trophy for his mantle.

    Most Democrats on the forum are making it very clear that they and the Democratic Party have NO solution whatsoever to the problem of N. Korea - still another reason everyone should vote Republican. According to Democrats, nothing can be done about anything.

    What's truly remarkable is the number of people who can't see the game Trump is playing, even as it's being played out in front of them.

    There is quite a bit of evidence that Kim is rather fond of the "American lifestyle".

    Which western allies have been shunned? Disagreement is certainly not shunning.

    It would certainly matter to the victims of TDS. Their little brains would burst.

    A President looking for self-reward rather than the good of America? Yeah, it matters.

    You think he will win the Nobel prize for starting a war with NK?

    Not standing united with the G-7 and these silly tariffs are shunning.

    Couple that with Trump asking for Russia to be let back into the club after they murdered an ex spy on UK soil. Not the mention Russia annexing Crimea.

    Trump is arming Ukraine. Why wasn't that done before Trump was elected?
    Assuming that the USG really opposed the Russian annexation of Crimea.

    Dear lord that isn't what I am saying.....I am saying Trump is so fixated on accolades that he is not seeing the big picture here. He sees 10 minutes ahead. He would be a terrible chess player and he has now inserted himself in the middle of terribly complex foreign affairs.

    The U.S. is in a position now to be taken advantage of and Trump is too blinded to see or care what is coming. 88% of his advisors are against this trade war he is waging. What does Trump do? He doesn't listen. Trump said he would halt military exercises with South Korea and Mattis at first said he wasn't aware of the plan, then later said he was "briefed". Pence then went to the senate GOP and told them that military exercises would not be halted.

    Does not any of this give you pause? Doesn't it alarm you that top people in Trump's own cabinet don't know Trump's plan?
