Look like Kim Jung Un outwitted the Trumpster--- and Kim is the real master of the art of the deal.
Well played Kim Jung Un-- well played!
There goes Trump's Nobel Prize
(Well, maybe he'll get another chance in his upcoming meeting with Putin...???)
Unfortunately now-a-days too many people are ordering the One Dum Fuc (....with Chinese Vegetable and in Black Bean Sauce).
On a more serious note, I find it difficult to believe that anyone thought that Un would give up his nukes. It is his ''trump card'' so to speak.
Now that this information has hit the wires it will be interesting to see what China does. They may wait until the US makes a statement or move of sorts. IMO, the Chinese are much more interesting in seeing NK move towards economic advancement to improve the country. China has always felt that through economic growth is the key to improvement.
The chess game will continue, but in any outcome China will be a big player.
Where are all the conservative who were recently crowing about how great Trump's negotiating skills were? Hello!!! The douchebag has blown his wad and gotten nothing but egg on his face (errr, maybe not egg). He's ready to get his orders from his puppermaster next, how much damage can he do before republicans decide treason is too far? Trump isn't playing chess, he isn't even able to play checkers. He just makes shit up and certain folk believe anything.
But... but... The Art of the Deal!!
Obviously this is one of the most important stories to be posted on NT ever. This is the third news story about this that says the same thing in 24 hours. First I posted one, then John Russell did, and now Krishna.
