Drumpt: I don't have to prepare for the NK summit. It's about attitude.

https://www.huffingtonpost.com/entry/donald-trump-wing-summit-with-kim-jong-un-prepare_us_5b196175e4b0adfb8266c3a7
snip:
President Donald Trump told reporters Thursday that he doesn’t need to prepare much for his historic meeting with North Korean leader Kim Jong Un, claiming the success of next week’s summit in Singapore will hinge on “attitude.”

This from a guy who didn't know what the nuclear triad was during the debates. I prepared harder organizing my magazine subscriptions for the upcoming year.

I think someone should con him with a bogus prize after the summit is over. Or award him the Barack Obama Peace Prize.

so "brilliant and charming" and such a "great negotiator". He doesn't know how out of his league he is. I can't believe we are letting this moron loose on the world stage. Can't anybody stop him? His lack of knowledge and statesmanship is frightfully dangerous.

That's "leaving Canada early on June 9th, for a meeting on June 12th". A meeting he set the time of himself.
