    Looks like your wish list has a couple of issues Brad.

    Trump put North Korea in the diver's seat, by jumping like an eager puppy dog to accept Kim's invitation, and then by roaming the United State suggesting he will be up for Nobel prize glory.

    Trump has way more face to lose than Kim, and Kim knows it. I suspect Trump will be desparate to meet Kim and will be desparate for anything that remotely looks like success on paper. That puts Kim in charge, with Trump groveling at his feet. Trump is learning the hard way that selling vodka and frozen steaks is a whole different ball game than playing geopolitical poker with hard core, cunning, communist dictators.

    Sadly, there seems to be a possibility our Orange Chump is going to get played.

    Libs won't fault past presidents for not trying hard enough......but they'll fault this president for trying harder. Typical double standard.
    Abortion rights dogma can obscure human reason & harden the human heart so much that the same person who feels
    empathy for animal suffering can lack compassion for unborn children who experience lethal violence and excruciating
    pain in abortion.

    Unborn animals are protected in their nesting places, humans are not. To abort something is to end something
    which has begun. To abort life is to end it.

    When Obama negotiates and concedes he is hailed as a great leader by the left. When Trump does the same he is a failure.

    Liberals are pathetic two faced losers.

    I am a progressive who criticizes the Clinton Administration regularly ( illiciting amusing statist democratic responses painting me as a right winger at times). North Korea didn't even have a real nuclear program until Clinton "negotiated a deal" with them that was the start of their secret underground nuclear weapons development efforts. I fault every President since and including Clinton for allowing North Korea to go unchecked on this issue, and I fault the current President for not having done anything thus far to stop them either. What more do you want?
