Including the part where if North Korea welches or doesn't keep up their end of the deal, Trump will publicly announce their failure and will slap sanctions on NK immediately. As he has done in the past to several countries.

Of course not. They are just getting started. Always humorous when the hysterical leftists try to bash Trump for not creating instant results.
But the point of the OP, obviously (except to hysterical liberals) is that there will be, unless Kim Jong Un does a sudden 180. Always a possible outcome with NKorea.

What deal? There was no compromise. More sanctions on NK is meaningless.
I’m asking because the putative “world’s greatest negotiator” is our president, right?
So since right wingers say that Obama couldn’t negotiate his way out of a wet paper bag, who got the better deal?
Yes, it is better.
1) Both sides have agreed on denuclearization of the Korean peninsula. The vagueness of this agreement is both a blessing and a curse, but mostly a blessing as it completely bounds the problem and practically eliminates loopholes.
2) No sunset clauses (probably the most important reason why the NK deal is better)
3) No sanctions relief until substantive progress has been made
4) No cash payments to North Korea
Well, lets see. One is a globally brokered agreement to stop nuclear proliferation and normalize relations with an ostracized country. The other is a secret handshake mutual masturbation session.
I think I'll go with the first choice, since to the best of my knowledge there's no actual "deal" from the second, just a bunch of hot air and two tragic haircuts.
Well - both bad haircuts got a LOT of television time so there was that. Trump then came home and told the country that we could all sleep well because NK was going to denuclearize - which we now know was just another absolute LIE.

There is no deal. NK is busy beefing up their program and treating Pompeo like a whipped dog.

That is a wish list, there is no agreement. Trump seems very desperate to get something significant from NK, I didn’t see them doing much of anything without formal agreement.
