How is President Trump making these NK peace talks look so easy?
quote:The others likes the attention from proclaiming their not negotiating, while Trump likes the attention from proclaiming that he is. Doesn't hurt to try, but I just don't think with Kim anything will actually change, even if he p promises he will.
What is the difference between Trump today and prior administrations?
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.

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