To put a finer point on this, 90% of the punditocracy's commentary on the Singapore summit seems to be constructed with the goal of convincing people that Trump shouldn't get any credit for it—rather than rationally analyzing the merits and demerits of the "deal".https://twitter.com/NateSilver538/status/1006372289196314624 …
Gotta say, this contrarian "I'm smarter than the pundits" punditry shtick gets a bit old. Political commentary is awful to a large degree, but reflexive dissing of pundits is just taking part in it. I'm glad that Trump's talking rather than threatening.

It's only a success in regards to his earlier stance. The agreement isn't anything that wasn't there before. At least publicly we've seen a largely unilateral agreement, something he's heavily dissed others for. What do you actually expect?
