Trump is finding out how difficult it is to negotiate with other countries and adversaries. It’s easy to criticize the Iran deal which involved several countries here he is winging it avoiding his own advisors. Did he really expect Kim to give up all his nuclear facilities and allow inspectors in his country. I guess talking is a positive and NK hasn’t fired middles for over a year but this isn’t going anywhere fast. I don’t understand why he needed to bail so rapidly, what was the harm in spending another day.

Pompeo said they weren't going to denuclearize. I'm no fan of Pompeo, but at least he knew what he was talking about. Instead of listening to people who know what they're doing, who've done their homework, Trump would rather bumble onto the scene like one of the three stooges, just to walk away with his ass handed to him. He never learns.

If this were reality TV, would Trump fire himself?

Most definitely YES.

The problem with this who charade, as many here know, is that diplomacy is hard. It's been hard for thousands of years. Trump, probably due to his followers "belief in him" thinks you point a finger, save "love" and that's that.

But the reality is that this situation has been done wrong from day one. It can't be fixed because it wasn't done right - the foundational is weak.

If nothing else I wish a few Trumpies would learn to appreciate my favorite saying "everything is easy for those who don't have to do it".

After so many years of telling us that Government doesn't do anything...or anything right....they actually believe it and think the answer is Reality TV. It's not.

I wonder the same.

We all know Individual 1 has very thin skin, and he prefers getting adulation from his base. This may sound crazy, but I wonder if KJU hurt his feelings or insulted him in some way.

It just doesn’t make a ton of sense to skip out like he’s escaping the school bully.

Right. ^That’s what happens when you surround yourself with dim-witted fans and yes-people. You start believing your own hype. I think KJU laughed in his face.

I know.

Being as he and Kim are such good friends and rarely get to see one another, you'd have thought they would've hung out for a couple days. Stretch this time out. Nothing waiting for Trump back here but some awkward questions from reporters.

Maybe once he and Lavrov had their talk, his business there was done. Who knows?

Well considering Cheeto vonTinyhands is the only President who has met and validated Kim, probably not. Everyone else has kept him marginalized on the world stage instead of being bestest buddies and a mutual admiration society with a lunatic.

Will Trump now claim he's a war hero after being shot down in Hanoi?
