Lies, concessions, more lies.

I truly hate being pessimistic on this, but look at the two key players involved.

2 overweight ugly despots with delusions of grandeur.. they'll get along just fine.

For Kim: Another opportunity to showcase himself on the world stage with a US President. More lax enforcement from China and Russia on sanctions. More time to build additional nuclear weapons and missiles.

For Trump: Hopefully a distraction from Cohen testifying before Congress highlighting all his crimes and corruption.

End result: Kim achieves what he came for, Trump doesn't...

Trump helps end the longest running war in history. Bad! Orange Man Bad!

8 years of the big talker with nothing to show for $10 trillion spent gets TRUMPED by MAGA

Besides the usual "tremendous victory," what I am expecting is, of course, the worst outcome imaginable. When you have low IQ, low ability people like Trump, Pompeo, and Bolton involved, there is NO HOPE.

Kim won Round One by getting the venue moved to Hanoi.

DPRK have learned that they can make promises like printing cash, so expect promises from them, and further concessions from Trump speaking as it were for the U.S. side.

How's that a win for Kim, Hanoi is a nice place these days, Trump is enjoying it as well.

I expect the Democrats and the media and the weapons makers are going to be pissed.

I find your lack of faith disturbing. Believe in the Force.

Same as with the photo opportunity ... absolutely nothing. The masses will be distracted according to plan.
