    I’m still holding out hope something good will come from this meeting. But a huge downside is that (in terms of optics) Trump has elevated this murderous regime to equal status with the USA.https://twitter.com/benshapiro/status/1006532444831404034 …

        Agreed about holding out hope. I'm appalled he called him a "worthy negotiator." Talk about legitimizing him in his own country.

        I think most Americans are holding out hope, but the hate for Trump is running rampant today in twitter and with some of the MSM. Time for me to back away from all media today so I don’t get discouraged. It’s disheartening.

        What does that mean? If Warren Buffet has lunch with me, has he elevated me to equal status? After the meeting, Trump returned to the USA on Air Force One. Kim returned to one of the worlds poorest, saddest despotic states.

        It is just delicious watching guys like this Lewis cat trying so hard to spin Singapore as a negative. You absolutely must know this guy, had the same meeting with the same output occurred under Obama, would be praising it as diplomacy at its high water mark. So funny to watch!

        You’re far from the only one to say this, but I’m not sure I follow the “elevate” logic just because they met and had a photo op. Does anyone seriously think NK is a peer of the USA? Or China, for that matter?pic.twitter.com/ohuSAriGrr

        Equal status with Trump, not the US. Yes, I understand....but even Trumpsters know we don’t represent the conduct that apparently Trump gushes over...let’s learn that there’s no conduct which Trump really condemns.

        We did that with Iran (and gave them billions to use against us) and Cuba (which we got nothing from them). Change has to start somewhere and the old way didn't make him less evil or us safer. Let's see if this leads to more sunshine in NK.

        Cuba isn't a threat. What a ridiculous argument. You want to see what change looks like in NK? Stop the denuclearization fairytale and start working towards real diplomacy, recognizing NK as a nuclear state and opening up their trade options.

        So what did you suggest he do,try the bottom down approach like so many others have.its inanity to try the same things over and over again. It would be nice to know what approach you would approve of?

        Trump seems to continue to benefit from the low bar. Trump turned the tensions way up and now we are just happy to have far less than we ever did in terms of an agreement in exchange for faux peace. It's sad. Keep hope alive, I guess.
