Trump agreed to suspend military exercises with South Korea INDEFINITELY and North Korea agreed to denuclearize, the same as they've done the past 30 years. What's different this time over the numerous times North Korea has done this over the last three decades? Trump says it's ok, this time? Republicans are making a mountain out of a mole hill until something specific is put on paper.
As I said it could all fall apart or Kim Jung Un may not be serious but I do argue that there are enough differences than before that there is a reason for optimism. The release of Americans from being held in their prison camps has never happened before. True North Korea has lied before and made overtures of peace but never by Kim Jung Un but rather his Father and Grandfather who were much older and more set in their power positions. Before there, also, was not the elimination of hardline military leaders such as Kim Jung Un has done prior to this summit. Additionally, there was never the seemingly friendly meetings between North and South Korea in addition to an actual face to face meeting between our President and the North Korean leader. I also like the fact that Trump presented an iPad presentation to Kim Jung Un as to what North Korea's potential could possibly be with certain changes, that Kim Jung Un could make. I think Trump is in a very unique position that no other President was able to take advantage of. I just love, though, how many from Obama's administration try and discount what is happening by trying to say it was all on Kim Jung Un as if Obama could have done exactly the same thing but rather it was Kim Jung Un that was keeping it from happening and now, all of a sudden, has decided to deal with an American President. Obama could never have done 1/10th of what Trump has done or accomplished, at least not with Obama's frame of mind and limited skill set. Obama could organize groups and make good speeches but was totally out of his element as President and history will certainly reflect that if Obama can even be found on the pages of history other than being the first minority President. Obama could have done so much and accomplished so much if he didn't hate the United States and our Constitutional controls so much.
I can understand why many are suspicious and non-trusting of Kim Jung Un but I argue that there are just as many reasons to suspect that potentially things have changed. Another thing that changed is the way President Trump approaches other leaders and Nations. Trump is doing exactly what he was elected to do and that was to PUT AMERICA FIRST and restore America's standing in the World as the World's #1 and strongest superpower. While there are still conflicts and areas where we (the US) are in areas of contention such as with China in the South China Sea there is also a noticeable change in the way the World views America and no longer are we being laughed at or taken for granted. Trump has proven that he will and does put America first and that the days of taking advantage of America are over as well as the days when our President bows to other leaders or apologizes for America.
I think Trump has done an exemplary and tremendous job and I also believe that those who detest and hate Trump still are lost in a Trump Derangement Syndrome whereby they are characteristically unhinged and unable to rationally have any dialog regarding Trump without their derangement taking over hence the contemporary example of many of Hollywood's elite such as De Niro who lost it at the awards show.
