Trump has been played like a fiddle by the little evil North Korean scumbag. Trump has handed this guy a public relations bonanza with little or nothing in return. We get a couple of prisoners returned who shouldn't have been prisoners in the first place. They supposedly destroy a test site that was already deemed unusable. They agree to very vague timetable to so called denuclearize without a single word about verification that they will most certainly renew on as they have in the past. We have been down this road before WITH language about verification which they of course ignored and cheated on.

Now, what did they get. Kim and North Korea get recognition from China and South Korea who they can now claim to have made nice nice with and who have already eased sanctions making American sanctions weaker. Kim gets all of this praise and adulation from the leaders of these countries. He gets a ton of footage with the American POTUS smiling and shaking hands and patting him on the back and calling him intelligent and honorable which will turn into all kinds of fabricated propaganda and fed back to the North Korean people by their state run media. They can splice that stuff up a million ways and feed it back to their people.

If anyone believes for one minute that North Korea are going to give up all of their nukes after spending 50 years starving, jailing, torturing, and murdering their own people to build them they are out of their minds. Trump just gave them all kinds of benefits from this meeting and got nothing back but some empty promises that are no better than the promises given to Clinton or Obama when they made deals with the devil.

Now Kim will say look at me, I am a good guy and there is no need to denuclearize. We are now friends with the world so nobody needs to fear us. Even the American president says I am intelligent and strong and honorable and I have made friends with South Korea and China.

That was fantastic

Sanctions can be applied very quickly if your doomsday scenario plays out. Perhaps he inherited a shithole country and decided that he wants to particiate in the global economy. He may also recognize that after him, who is left to carry on the nuclear foreplay? Many countries have enormous wealth and influence and no nukes.

After all, they have China next door. I am sure they can deliver a fresh hot nuke in less than 30 minutes.

Let’s be like Goober and praise foreign dictators as friends and make American judges, American media, the US intelligence community, Canada, and our POWs as the enemy!
