Is Donald Trump going to ignore North Korea's human rights violations in order to, ahem, 'denuclearize' the rogue nation?
There's a very specific reason why the US has NOT negotiated at the Presidential level with North Korea, and it's human rights. North Korea is a brutal dictatorship, holding over 1200 political prisoners in torture and starvation. Even from an "America First" position, the three American prisoners of war held by Un should be an issue, don't you think, Donald?
Earlier today on Morning Joe, Admiral James Stavridis pointed out exactly what Donald Trump thinks could happen:
I think President Trump somehow feels he will walk in, slap the table like he's selling a building in Manhattan and walk out the door to collect his Nobel Peace Prize. Ain't going to happen that way. This is going to be a process that has to unfold.
