    He makes a valid point. The left hates Trump so intensely, they will rally behind our enemies.

    Do you think so because Capt forgot to mention the Democratic Party's unwavering support for Hamas and MS-13?

    "We reiterate to the US that we are willing to sit face to face at any time and in any way," said Kim, who has negotiated with US counterparts for years.


    "I would like to conclude that President Trump's statement on the North Korea-US summit is a decision that is not in line with the wishes of the who hope for the peace and stability of the Korean peninsula as well as the world."

    How did North Korea "blink" by reiterating the same policy they've had for decades?

    Trump supporters seem to be operating under the bizarre assumption that North Korea's desire to enter into direct negotiations with a US President are a recent development occasioned by Trump's deft Twitter diplomacy.

    In reality, North Korea has been seeking out such a meeting for decades. Trump's contribution to the peace process was not to induce North Korea into coming to the table, since they required no inducements, but to break with longstanding US tradition by finally agreeing to have the meeting.

    Yet Trump's cancellation of the meeting, which was only historical because he agreed to have it, is somehow a victory for Trump? If anything, it sounds like he's just dithering about in order to cover the massive blundering of Bolton and Pence, all while throwing around the kind of brainless, macho rhetoric that many of his easily impressed supporters love to hear.

    It is still early in the story.
