Most Americans say it’s too early to judge Singapore summit’s success; poll shows big partisan differences

In the aftermath of his meeting with Kim Jong Un, President Trump declared that North Korea is no longer a nuclear threat. Americans have a more measured view, according to a Washington Post-ABC News poll. But their impressions of what happened in Singapore are nonetheless more positive than pre-summit attitudes earlier in the spring.

Americans aren’t ready to agree, according to the Post-ABC poll. A majority of 55 percent says it is too early to tell whether the summit was a success for the United States and an almost identical majority (56 percent) says it was too early to tell whether it was a success for North Korea.

About 1 in 5 (21 percent) say it was a success for the United States, and nearly 3 in 10 (29 percent) say it was a success for North Korea. And 16 percent say it was not a success for the United States, and a mere 5 percent say it wasn’t a success for the North Koreans. The net positive margin on what the summit means for North Korea extends across partisan lines.



The Post-ABC poll was conducted Wednesday through Friday among a random national sample of 495 adults reached on landlines and cellphones. Overall results have a margin of sampling error of plus or minus 5.5 percentage points.

The US should give NOTHING until AFTER this is achieved.
But Mr "Dealmaker" may do a shit deal just to tell his minions that he's done one. And telling them repeatedly that its a GREAT deal will work with them
