this is 100% why the president of the united states of america should not be anywhere near a diplomatic meeting with north korea. in a normal administration there are people called diplomats to handle these things instead of a president who wildly kramers from press event to press event

The diplomats in the past 10 years having been doing a great job while NK developed nukes and tested them, eh?

Is there any middle ground between getting into a fist fight with Kim and:

- Saying that starvation and labor camps are "how it works" in Korea and that Kim's hands are tied.
- Making weirdly racist assertions that mass executions are "all they know" in Korea, so the North Korean people aren't that upset about it.
- Saying Kim is a loving person and we can't judge him for what happened in the past.

?

No, you're right. I guess those were the only two options.

I don't think you actually know what a diplomat does, or that Kim Jong-Il died less than seven years ago, let alone have the ability to recall any events in US-NK relations from 10 years ago.

So Trump has already condemned North Koreans to years of continued brutal dictatorship by legitimising Kim, and now he tells the North Korean people directly that Kim isn't so bad, he did what he had to do, you should love him? That should literally be a crime against humanity, and from the President of the USA :psyduck:

He also got trump to stop doing military exercises, so we actually have him concessions.

And the chuds are just crowing about all he did.

When they break the agreement within the year, they all say Kim wasn't to be trusted in the first place and trump was smart to pull out.

Has the media been saying he got played? Or are they trying to say big super guy did a business so he doesn't attack their legitimacy again?

Edit:

I'm sure Bolton is just waiting to be the last man in the room to say "they're laughing at you, you should invade". No idea how much luck hell have, baby trump might still be high from all the ballwashing from fox news.
