    What exactly is Kim supposed to do with this “legitimacy” that he’s been wrongly granted? Export it as a commodity? Harvest it for food? It’s such an intangible concept as to be meaningless

        The people complaining about this believe in inherent "evil", no better than Bush arguing about "axis of evil". They don't believe in a materialist conditions influencing outcomes, or diplomacy, or progress... just mystical inherent properties. It's faith based "logic".

        Fast forward to US sending detainees to NK for rendition. We cooperated this way w/ Syria last time we had Bolton around. To say we do not embolden, arm, install dictatorships for ease of business is a joke. It’s precisely bellicosity or undue affection that assists an iron fist.

        USE IRA, or ANC ... There are countless people and groups that America has negotiated with, or even created or propped up that can be considered as bad or worst than Kim.

        I consider myself a cynic. Yet even I find it perverse to consider a meeting towards peace in terms of winners and losers. Like what's the worst case here? That the meeting was pointless?

        The same people who are crying about granting Kim Jong Un legitimacy, granted Trump legitimacy.

        I think a country needs to be legitimate to have a chain of McDonald's franchises. But do not quote me on that.
