      Again, plenty of valid concerns to raise about the summit, Trump's tack, etc., but this "regime-legitimation" meme -- now very popular among liberals/Dems -- is *always* invoked to undermine diplomatic engagement (see also Iran)https://twitter.com/Robert_E_Kelly/status/999231116631404544 …

      We gave the world’s worst rights abuser a regime-legitimating meeting with POTUS for nothing. A massive concession for which the art of the deal got us zero. No other prez was lazy, impulsive, and ill-informed enough about North Korea to make such an obvious error. Stop lying. https://twitter.com/foxnews/status/999098352728969216 …

      As odious as the Iranian regime is, it is both more organized and less murderous than North Korea. The position of engaging Iran but not NK is far more defensible than the reverse (ie current US policy under Trump)

      The American state also tends to be highly organized and highly murderous. Don't see how either of those traits negate the utility of engagement with it

          Well, organization and being less murderous goes to a country's ability to be a responsible part of the international community. I would engage with both countries. But it is possible to coherently argue that the Iran Deal was a better idea than Trump's current North Korea effort

          As to America being murderous, I certainly think you ignore the broader context. But more to the point, America clearly uses force in a way that does not disturb the vast majority of its international allies - unlike both Iran and North Korea.
