wrote about a poll on the reasons people like him. No Korea handling, economy, taxes his strengths. Perhaps with deal so effed up and gas prices up...(of course which hurts the common person)..he will lose enough support to get out of our sight.

and NK, locked Clinton and Obama up, etc. Point is, "disapproval" doesn't always mean folks won't vote for the racist buffoon again.

Kim has done anything he's wanted and targeted trump, because he was an easy target, by escalating testing, while he did nothing, and now he claims a meeting will solve everything? Neither trump or Kim are to ever be trusted to do as they say they will, ever. Both will never keep their word, and NK and others have made agreements before only to discover later they didn't follow them at all. Trump wants a PR event to claim he's saving the world from KIM, another product of his imagination, all for PR only, and nothing true. Kim has tested substantially , and now is into production, so he with China and Russia's help will continue and product nuclear weapons, no matter what trump wants to do or threaten with. Both China and Russia are protecting Kim, so why wouldn't he now produce them.

spin like some kind of achievement? Mr Art of the Deal really screwed that up - if he had gone about it methodically perhaps even with G-eye-NA and Russer against it ...?

sitting in a world-changing summit. He wants to go down in history for leading a great summit and being the ONLY MAN IN HISTORY to bring peace to the world "like no-one has ever done before". He wants to be forever adored and respected. Anything less will be incomplete and a failure for him.
