I already had days ago. Giving a murderous dictator equal footing with what use to be the most powerful position on earth? Trump demeaned himself and set American diplomacy back 50 years with his little meeting and tantrums this past weekend. He acts out for no reason, he gives away bargaining chips and you make excuses and cheer.

Yes, because Husker Du, union boy welder knows more than our POTUS.
Do you hear yourself?
The statement was actually notable more for what it lacked than what it actually contained. Contrary to previous North Korean undertakings, there was no mention of Pyongyang rejoining the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty. No mention of any supervision or verification that it would carry out its commitments. Not a word about the North Korean missile program, which reached intercontinental capacity last year and spurred the Trump administration to seek an accommodation. Japan and South Korea, the North’s threatened neighbors, aren’t even mentioned in the joint statement. And there was no reference to the atrocious human rights record of Kim’s regime or any indication that it was about to change its ways. On the contrary, Trump gave Kim carte blanche to continue oppressing his people as he sees fit.

Trump's vow to end military drills with Seoul stuns a region
President Donald Trump rocked the region with the stunning announcement Tuesday that he was halting annual U.S.-South Korean military drills — and wants to remove the 28,500 U.S. troops stationed in the South as a deterrent against North Korea.
Trump's surprise, almost offhand comments, made during a news conference after his summit with North Korean leader Kim Jong Un, seemingly upended decades of the U.S. defense posture on the Korean Peninsula.
The remarks contradicted countless previous declarations by U.S. political and military officials over the years that the drills are routine, defensive and absolutely critical.
Trump has now essentially adopted the standard North Korean line, calling the military exercises a "provocative" drain of money and announcing they would stop while he continues talks with Kim, whom he repeatedly praised as a solid negotiating partner.
His statement was quickly portrayed by critics as a major, unreciprocated concession to a country that only last year was threatening Seoul and Washington with nuclear war.
It also seemed to leave officials completely off guard in South Korea, where the presence of U.S. troops has long been described as necessary to maintaining peace on the peninsula.
Moon Seong Mook, a former South Korean military official, said Trump's comments on the drills confirmed what many in South Korea had feared all along — that North Korea would attempt to drive a wedge between Washington and Seoul and gain substantial concessions from an unconventional U.S. president who thinks much less of the traditional alliance than his predecessors.
"The core of the U.S.-South Korea alliance is the U.S. troops stationed in South Korea and the joint U.S.-South Korea military drills, but the American military presence in South Korea wouldn't mean much if the militaries don't practice through joint drills," said Moon, now a senior analyst for the Seoul-based Korea Research Institute for National Strategy. "I am concerned that the summit between Trump and Kim will prove to be a setback in the global efforts to denuclearize North Korea and also introduce instability in the alliance between Seoul and Washington."

Trump has done more in a few months than Obama did in 8 years, wise up booty.
North Korea will never give up its nukes. And Trump made major concessions without getting anything concrete in return.
North Korea is the clear winner in all of this. World-wide recognition and no more US-South Korea War games.
Trump got rolled and played like a Stradivarius. Clear loser.
