Cowardly draft dodger. I know he uses flattery as a negotiating tactic but that's just awful. It's not a fricken real estate deal. The guy's one of the most brutal dictators in the world. 1

Trump steps on his own rakes when he speaks - but on this he was pretty clear. He never said he didn't hold Kim's regime responsible for what happened. He never said he didn't hold Kim accountable for what happened under his "leadership". All he said was that Kim told him he didn't know what happened to Otto until after it happened. Is that true? Likely it is. Does it make Kim any less of a dictator? Nope. The spin that comes off these flubs is what's hilarious to me. If only because it continually shows which outlets are more interested in dividing and spinning than they are factually covering the story. There are very, very few that do the latter anymore. But the former is becoming easier and easier to spot. Part of the confusion here is the failure to understand what the DPRK was under Kim until very, very recently. It wasn't his country as much as it was a controlled country (by several actors, including the USIC). 1

His refusal to use force is also unacceptable.

To me it's inconceivable that a captured American prisoner would not be beaten into a vegistative state without Kim Jong Un's knowledge. In general the question is how much of are moral principles should we sacrifice to appease a brutal dictator? If somehow despite NK lying constantly over the years about denuclearization Trump gets Kim to denuclearize....it's worth it. If not, these summits will go down as textbook "what not to do" when dealing with a dictator as reprehensible as Kim Jong Un. 14 hours ago, The_Dude said: Gary Oldman’s Churchill was AWFUL.

"Textbook what not to do" if this crazy bastard does not denuclearize? I would suggest that textbook has been written by the world leaders of the past who allowed it to get this far. That would include American leadership as well. As for what to do now, well I guess we'll see how it goes. 1

The Abe "quote" makes absolutely no sense without context, which is completely intentional on Reich's part. You know, considering that Abe and Trump get along quite well, which is again somehow not mentioned.
