It's not working, Donald.

One silver lining is that Trump is temporarily looking away from the Mueller investigation as he stirs up more chaos on his manufactured crisis. This means another day for Mueller and team to move forward with their investigation.

The more Trump stews about Mueller and focuses solely on Mueller, the more unhinged he gets. At some point he might fire Mueller or Rosenstein. This will start a constitutional crisis which will lead to his downfall(either eventual impeachment or resignation). But there would be total chaos for the entire country(all parties) during that constitutional crisis which could go on for several agonizing months.

Smart move by the President IMO.
The fault for NK's statements lies with the US and SK. Instead of welcoming the opportunity, they had to carry out military exercises.

If I were NK, I would simply continue to dismantle the nuclear sites and allow independent controllers to confirm the permanent nature of the destruction of the nuclear program. In return China and others should no longer participate in the sanctions. That way the whole meeting would become redundant and Trump could go **** himself...

Maybe the NK president would get the Nobel Peace prize alone that way

And whether or not Kim remains the head of NK is none of any other country's business. As long as a country does not commit a genocide within or attack other countries, there is no reason to get involved in its domestic politics.

Nope. False threat from Trump. Nothing's going to happen with NK. That's too much work for Trump. He wants to play golf each weekend and sit in bed and Tweet until 11am on weekdays.War would require meetings and discussions and Trump would have to take part in some of them. He wants no part of that much work.

Stay on topic. Mueller and his fake investigation have hit a brick wall. The Left tried and failed to make an issue of Trump's successful election win.
Find a new cause. You only embarrass yourself.

Let me help you. Crazy Kim is going to die. Hopefully this year. Rooting for our enemies isn't something I'd Bragg about.

I'm hoping talks will resume, and we will keep lines of communication open. That would be the best turn of events. We have to keep in mind that South Korea has the most to lose if Kim becomes hostile again, and they are our allies. We should try to work it out to some degree.

Nothing good comes from devaluing Trump, he represents us, like it or not. If we're at peace you'll benefit, and if we are at war we'll fight it and suffer the results of it. Like it, or not. We ARE united in the eyes of others, even if we don't act that way at home. Might as well make the best of it.

NK hasn't responded yet. No telling if it went over their head.



Haha.


What a lovely defense you have of Trump. Absolutely hilarious.



He writes a letter with a reading age and content of the maturity of an 8 year old and you think it was too complicated and went over people's heads? Ahahahahahahaha!
Oh thanks for the laugh. My sides.

Who exactly is going to destroy North Korea?

This 21st century has revealed one irrefutable thing..."destroying" another nation cannot be done without triggering an end of world scenario. There is no way the U.S. would ever attack N.K. ....either with conventional or nuclear weapons as China would view that as an attempt to re-unify the two Koreas under the sphere of American influence.

China just built an island and landed the first long range nuclear capable bomber on it to further their military footprint in the South China Sea and you think they'd tolerate American influence moving north on the Korean peninsula?

N. Korea did not surrender in 1953 and won't today.

Is this your typical Trump worshipper disconnect in full bloom or what?


Trump explained: Donald Trump and narcissism: What
Can't leave out that they already had commemorative coins for this failed summit, already made.
