I have yet to see Trump succeed at anything while in office. I still hope he can succeed as I hope every president can succeed. 

I see Trump stick to his guns, and I respect that IF he can prove he is right. But at some point, an intelligent person should admit when they are wrong.

Not Trump.

I said there was something fishy about NK magically ready to sit, talk , and disarm. I wasn't surprised when that seemed to go south. I'm not really surprised it's all back on. I'm not a conspiracy theory believer in general but in this case I think this is all a planned performance.

Eric, I was being a bit "tongue in cheek" but my point was, the diplomacy used on NK for the last 30 years, has gotten us to the point that they have nuclear capabilities. That has nothing to do with Trump or a diminished State Department. Doing it "the right way" did little to deter NK in any significant way. Maybe there is more back channels being used than reported and Trumps' tweets of the day are just him being his bombastic self.
