(29,199 posts)4. the last part of your post is exactly right
Trump came back from NK summit more or less like Chamberlain came back from Berlin... "Peace in or Time!"
Then he went to Helsinki where he morphed from Chamberlain to Quisling.
but Trump is trying to con his base into believing that the NK summit was some sort of great deal... even though Trump got nothing and NK made great political hay out of the whole thing and is now in a great position to make demands on South Korea.

N. Korea probably sold them 'Dealing with Trump for Dummies'.
