Did Trump's "ego summit" make matters worse in that part of the world?

South Korea would have liked to have been involved, since it is about their lives and their survival. There is a lot of anxiety in Japan this morning, also.

Are we pulling troops out of South Korea? Did Trump agree to not have military maneuvers with South Korea?

What type of verification will we have that Kim will get rid of his nuclear weapons?

What sanctions were lifted?

Also, Trump had so much criticism for Obama and the evil regime in Iran but did he even mention the human rights abuses of North Korea?

From a distance, at first glance, it looks like Trump was taken to the cleaners.

I can't find it but CNN is covering. South Korea has no idea what the hell Trump is talking about.

He is bending his knee - and America's knee - to the dictates of Russia and China - vacating a power sphere so they can have it with their brutal dictator puppet, Kim Jung-un. Very cowardly.

Sad to see the republicans causing America to go all weak in the knees. republicans are steadily, systematically undermining American security and stability.

Dangerous.

And gave him anything he wanted. And now is acting like he did the opposite. Again.
