    I don't remember the "done deal" part. I do remember the "we'll see" part. I also remember if this whole thing fails, which it very likely could, nothing ventured, nothing gained. Sanctions still on, military exercises back on. Just about the only thing that will change is, little dumpling boy will know if his nukes fly, he's dead. What exactly do you regret?

    PYONGYANG, North Korea — North Korea accused the Trump administration on Saturday of pushing a “unilateral and gangster-like demand for denuclearization”

    Trump was always very clear, this is a 1 time opportunity for NK - the problem is China is cheating on sanctions
    and NK is emboldened to stick with the same..

    But we have risked nothing,and greatly reduced the chance for war so far at least

    Trump actually claimed that the nuclear threat for NK was over.

    Trump said North Korea was ‘no longer a nuclear threat.’

    Most of us have known guys like this our whole life. Full of bluster and false bravado, full of empty promises, and unwarranted claims of great achievement.

    They are the kind of people most capable and well-adjusted adult men despise. But for some weird reason, Republicans find Trump's character to be admirable, even worship-worthy.
