    You are as clueless as Jim.

    Fortunately, you are not as hateful.

So far, he has done a pretty good job of rolling back some of the damage done by Obama. He has secured the release of Americans overseas. (Your guy left them to rot.) He is slowly but surely working to disassemble the abomination that is Obamacare. He stands a good chance of actually getting Kim to the bargaining table and ending his nuclear program and possible setting the framework for a long term peace in the region. He has fulfilled the promise of every American President since Clinton to recognize Jerusalem as the capitol of Israel and move our embassy there.

    He is not perfect, but he is a lot better than we have seen in a long time.
    Except North Korea has been willing to sit at the "bargaining table" with the USA for years, long before Trump started hurling bombastic Tweets at them. In other words, North Korea's willingness to sit down with Trump is happening IN SPITE of Trump's belligerence, not because of it.

    That is bull$#@!.

    NK has been playing the same game for decades. They say they want to talk, but only if we are willing to give them something to do it. We pay them off and they renege.

    You really do not know what you are talking about. NK had never wanted to negotiate in good faith.

    During the campaign, Trump repeatedly connected Saudi Arabia to the 9/11 attacks. But once he became the president, Trump suddenly became best friends with the Saudi dictatorship that exports Islamic extremism to every corner of the globe.

    So you admit that North Korea has been willing to talk for decades, yet we're supposed to believe Trump's belligerent Tweeting got them to sit down at the bargaining table. Sounds perfectly reasonable if you don't bother to think about it.

    Ethereal, I am inclined to believe you are not really stupid.

    You should stop pretending to be.
