Trump Can Easily Get a Deal With North Korea

[TomCADem]

North Korea promises to stop tests immediately and promises to completely demolish its nukes in...2025, the year after Trump leaves. In return, Trump agrees to immediately lift sanctions.

*wink*
*wink*

Thus, Kim and Trump get to declare victory so long as Kim does not renounce the deal until after Trump leaves office. Easy peasey. Trump gets his Nobel prize for the agreement and Kim gets to keep his nukes, plus a lifting of sanctions. Heck, all Kim has to do is praise Trump and Trump will give away the farm.

1. I would say about 90% chance

That is exactly what will happen

3. Why do you think Trump wants everyone out of the room?

No witnesses. This is a PT Barnum moment where Trump happily sells out the long terms needs of the U.S. for a short term ratings boost.

2. Trump won't get the Nobel...

He fucked up the Iran deal
He rips kids from their parents at the border
He is destroying health care here at home

A different saner country is in charge of handing out Nobels

He ain't getting it

5. Call Me Nostradamus - Trump and Kim nuclear summit agreement contains no new promises

So much for "complete, verifiable" disarmament. Trump pretty much gave away the farm rolling back sanctions in return for nothing. Indeed, when Kim does squat, Republicans will just blame it on the next Democratic President...assuming we can retain some level of a functioning democracy here.

The agreement signed by President Donald Trump and North Korean leader Kim Jong Un on Tuesday appeared to contain no new pledges and was padded with vague language that many experts said would be difficult to enforce.

While some commentators were scathing, others painted the meeting as the historic first step in a process where the technical details would come later.

And even some critics conceded that any level of diplomacy was preferable to the apocalyptic threats traded between Trump and Kim last year.

Tuesday's document described itself as "an epochal event of great significance" and said Kim's regime had agreed "to work toward complete denuclearization of the Korean Peninsula."
