You provided plenty. Iran was a mutual effort, not just O . . . and Cuba was long over due. Not dissing the effort, it's the manner in which he goes about his business . . . there are consequences in the long term, "on both sides". We now appear like a third rate dictatorship.

And you of course have bent over forward, eyes closed taking whatever Trump gives and then asking for more . . . "please sir may I have another". Pure, unadulterated, unconditional love.
Ok then if you insist - I'm guessing the deal will have Kim getting a few cases of fake Trump stakes (frozen with the expiration date nearing), an honorary degree from Trump University (just pay shipping and handling) , free advice on how to take North Korea through bankruptcy, 50% off a time share at Trump Ocean Resort Baja Mexico, a stack of blank sheets of paper, a $1,ooo,ooo donation for the Trump Foundation (he should receive the check in 2 weeks).
While Trump gets to continue pretending he is a real president that has accomplished something.
I'm giving the nod to Trump on this one.

Publicity stunt, "On both sides". Putin is now the most powerful man on earth and Trump is down there in 6th or 7th behind Merkel and May.
Trump's Post-Game North Korea Interviews Were Shockingly Bad
President Trump was fleeced by Kim Jong-un. During Tuesday's summit between the two world leaders, Trump legitimized Kim's regime while promising to end joint defense testing with South Korea, something the president's advisers have repeatedly warned him against. In return, Kim offered nothing more than a vague commitment to work toward denuclearization. This was plenty to satisfy Trump, who spent most of his time on camera following the summit doing public relations work for his new authoritarian friend, with whom he says he has developed a "special bond."
Kim Jong-un is, of course, a ruthlessly brutal dictator and one of the world's worst human rights violators. North Korea is a police state, and residents suspected of defying the regime are often banished without trial to gruesome prisons, where inmates are routinely starved and tortured. Kim also has a taste for executing his perceived enemies. As the New York Times points out, Kim has ordered at least 340 executions since taking power in 2011, including that of his own deputy premier for education, who in 2016 was killed by a firing squad for "disrespectful posture." The nation's general over the armed forces was executed with an antiaircraft gun for falling asleep in a meeting.
Trump's faith in a dictator whose nation has repeatedly reneged on agreements with the United States may seem naive, but it isn't difficult to understand how Kim was able to ingratiate himself to the president so easily: He just flattered the hell out of him. "He trusts me, I believe, I really do," Trump told Stephanopoulos. "He said openly and said it to a couple of reporters that no other president ever could have done this."
President Trump says : "I may be wrong, I mean I may stand before you in 6 months and say, 'Hey, I was wrong.' I don't know that I'll ever admit that, but I'll find some kind of an excuse.

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."
