      1. Trump's Asia trip illustrates the danger of liberals becoming knee-jerk in their anti-Trumpism.

      2. There are some really positive developments on trip: Trump has toned down "Rocket Man" talk & is open to negotiating with North Korea.

      3. Also, from my point of view, a more conciliatory approach to China, to work together on regional problems, is good.

      4. And Trump's calls for better trade balance is compatible with long-held trade union & left-liberal advocacy.

      5. Instead of focusing on substance, liberals & left (myself included!) focused on trivial gaffes (pond, etc).

          He has barely any well thought out policies to engage WITH so the most obvious thing to attack him on is his inherent unfitness. Debating “policy” with trump is a joke.

          Even most Congressional GOPers agnostic on Trump have come to loathe him. His promises mean nothing and he changes from day to day. That's part of the reason GOP Congress has done so little, but hey lets "engage" with him.

          You haven't been paying attention to trump. This is how he acts in person. He'll go back to his #thuggish self soon

          You have GOT to be kidding. "The risk of Donald Trump starting a nuclear war dropped from almost certain to highly likely so come on dems, accentuate the positive"?? Unbelievably obtuse take.

          Always substance, and there is plenty of substance to focus on.
