Trump has been the best president in my life and he’s not close to finishing his first term.

What is the difference between Trump today and prior administrations?
North Korea demonstrated ICBMs and a thermonuclear bomb under @real’s watch, a dramatically new position of strength from which to negotiate. It was so significant, an American president immediately jumped at their offer to talk in person, elevating them like never before.

And why would it? He finally gained leverage internationally with the nuclear weapons and missiles. So why give that leverage up? Furthermore, the leverage he has domestically is that he has controlled the information from most of the citizens and has harshly punished those who try to counter that. Allowing for his citizens to see more of the outside world would be the ultimate red pill, and it would make the person who kept forcing the blue pill down their throats look very good.

The "show" is essential to the "substance" in this matters. It's always been so.

Does that mean that now isn't a time to talk, Justin? How many more administrations should we go through without dealing with NK? You must have the answer.

Who were the controlling interest in prior administrations that blocked them from coming no where close to where President Trump has our current relationship with NK?
Is/was China key? Do finally have a POTUS that called China’s bluff (I know we do)?
Past Presidents have all been owned by someone. Their donors, corporations, the Establishment/Collectivists, Globalists... they all had power over past Presidents who were desperately seeking wealth, power, and legacy that can only be granted by these ruling class entities.
Trump is free of this. And, he has decades of experience as a 1%'er ruling over hundreds of thousands of subordinates, and cutting deals with other ruling class entities. He even has a best selling book on how to do it.
The guy doesn't need to submit, pander, beg, and compromise to a disadvantage to reach his goals.
He wants to go down as the greatest deal maker and job boss of all time, with a legacy of the greatest expanse of glorious accomplishments of all time.
And that's just overwhelmingly different from what every other President who's ever had this job had for their goals.
As a result, he just has all the leverage with significantly less to lose.

It's easier to justify big government when the constituency is afraid of a problem that would require a big government to protect them. So rather than make the relitvely easy deals or actions to make the problem become resolved, they drag it out or make the problem a bigger threat than it really is.
This right here. Establishment politics 101: Every problem you solve is one less club to bash your political opponent with, and one fewer thing the citizenry need the government to accomplish.

Trumps so awesome that I don’t worry about him. I actually find myself wondering what it would like to be Kim and to meet this dominant world figure like TRUMP.

Think!
Blockade.
Sanctions.
Poverty.
Fire and Fury.
Loss of power.
Death and destruction.

Prosperity.
Unicorns and rainbows.
(Just kidding on the last part.)
Seriously, there is a huge juxtaposition between a future NK of poverty and despair and a NK that will play nicely in the global sandbox.

I would like to know names.
Paul Singer?
Ed Cox?
Rupert Murdoch?
Every corporate CEO who has a manufacturing plant in China?

Yep, and who owns them...
Look at a "riches people in the world" list, then find the people that aren't on the list that should be at the top, or are sorely misrepresented.

How?
He's a sociopath.
Half of Europeans thinks he's insane.
If it were not for 17 indictments you could pretend all is well. His gaming pardons is so his co conspirators can wait it out.
Maybe he wins.
Maybe he's impeached.
