Can Trump Deliver on North Korea?

This discussion thread was locked as off-topic by muriel_volestrangler (a host of the Latest Breaking News forum).

Source: Political Wire

Associated Press: “Going into the North Korea meeting, senior administration officials say, the president has been almost singularly focused on the pageantry of the summit —including the suspenseful roll-out of details. He has not been deeply engaged in briefing materials on North Korea’s nuclear program, said three people with knowledge of the White House efforts.”

3. Trump should shut up, all his role is, is to sign a paper.

North and South Korea are the deal makers in this matter.... and American people should hold fast to that fact.

Trump wants to weasel in and try and take credit for something he has nothing to do with its developments. All Trump is doing is "grandstanding" trying to make his role important.

North and South Korea should move on with their deal and publicize to the world, that they don't care what posture America takes, they are going to Unify their Nation. This will shut this loud mouth up and stop his grandstanding and trying to take credit for the work N. and S. Korea is doing for their own mutual benefit.

4. Kim is in love with celebrity. I'm surprised Dennis Rodman isn't involved in this somehow.

He might come to an agreement of sorts with the Orange Fuhrer, but it will only last as long as the reality show.

He'll PR it to promote himself with it telling more lies and pushing his propaganda he's doing the right thing , when actually he's being played by NK, China, Russia and others. Just like with everything else he's doing, its a train wreck, and we'll pay dearly for his damaging and stupid policies for pay programs for policies he's running to personally profit from. Everything he's doing is skyrocketing prices upward for all the American people, and he can't lie his way around it now. Its hurting people everywhere, especially his supporters. He's proving he has no talent for making deals, that's why so many bankruptcies . He's a fraud, and a serial liar, and a failure.
