Whew. I had to wait until I reached the end of the article to make sure Trump didn't make another concession to Kim.

Don't worry, it's in the works. Coughing up confessions for nothing in return is the new conservative "get tough" strategy.

Pompeo's another lying career DC swampman who's paid to lie for serial liar Trump.
The 'deal' is probably not with Kim himself, instead with Xi and Putin. Pompeo's probably shilling for Trump and Trump's various family businesses.
If there are holdups in the negotiations they're probably because Trump's waiting to see how many more trademarks he can arrange, and where in Korea, China and Russia he'll be allowed to build properties and sell the trump brand name.
Trump, Xi and Putin are predatory businessmen.

Kim didn’t get anything and now looks like the sanctions are going to get tighter like an Octopus’s tentacle around his neck. Kim is just dumb. No sanction relief coming your way buddy, continue and the war games will resume, clock is ticking.

So you disagree with Trump, who says Kim is very smart.
plasticmonkey
I agree with Trump, who says Kim is very smart. Much, much smarter than Trump, who is being played.

Kim got an end to the wargames, sanctions cancelled by Trump, gave Kim a pass on Otto Warmbier, and praised him as a leader.
Trump has secured nothing in return.

Trump can say what he wants, I’m not in his head, but I personally think Kim is.
Hardly, if Trump were being played then Kim would have gotten much more and he hasn’t and if Kim were smarter, he would have made Trump get rid of Bolton and that won’t happen. Lol
Sanctions still on and more are coming.
Doesn't need to, Both got nothing, the war games can resume at anytime and Kim still needs to find a way to get sanction relief and Bolton ain’t going nowhere, so...oh, well for Kim.

Wait a minute, wait a minute; I thought Donnie and Kimmie were "in love"....?

Oh my, what's this, a lovers spat? Is Kimmie mad at Donnie? I didn't know lovers fired off missiles to show their love for one another?
The fact that we have "Lil Rocket Man" and the 'Dotard" negotiating about nuclear weapons just shows what an amateur hour this is - but what can you expect from a failed reality TV star with the understanding of a fifth grader...
And Kelly, Mattis, McMaster, Cohn, and all the other adults gave up and left - they couldn't deal with "Crazytown"....
God help us...

Too bad Obama couldn't take care of this problem during his eight years. Trump will get it done.
Chip Star
Don't forget Truman, Kennedy, Johnson, Nixon, Ford, Carter, Reagan, Bush I, Clinton, and Bush II. HAR!

North Korean nuclear threat can be contained only when there is strong ROK-US alliance. However, it seems Trump is failing to understand it and ruined the whole peace process by ”falling in love” with Kim Jong-un. This was a predictable and avoidable disaster.
Good job building up the two bit dictator at our expense while stopping our SK-U.S. war games that insure war readiness.

My response:
Goodlucktoyou
Trump was too busy playing golf to watch the minuteman 3 nuke missile test last week.

Or Maybe Trump couldn’t deal with their idiocy? Anger and disgust goes both ways.
What’s up with liberals and God these days?
That ain’t happening.
Has nothing to do with Trump, the world doesn’t seem to understand it, you also have forces in the South that don’t want a reunification to happen for a multitude of reasons.
Ok, so Trump saber rattling is bad, he’s an idiot, if he tries to befriend Kim, he’s an idiot....which means, the Dems have zero plans how to deal with this guy except appeasement and lifting sanctions and pray that something good might come from it, thank God Trump didn’t fall for that one like the last 3 Presidents did.

Oh, so then if Trump can't get it done either, you won't single him out for it, right? In the meantime, give him a chance, right? HAR!
Chip Star
He told us he had thisbpribkem solved. He lied again. I'll single him out for being a compulsive liar that is coughing up too much for nothing. Tee Hee!
