Predictably, trump helping Chinese company to score a win in n. Korea

Great negotiator :D:D:D

North Korea is the leverage the Chinese are using against us in most aspects of our foreign relations with them.

Undoubtedly, Pyongyang and Beijing are moving hand in glove as they properly stick it to our great negotiator of a president. Trump is in deep right now.
 
Funny your ilk completely ignores how Kim is playing Trump like a fiddle. He succeeded to completely pull the US into his game. Are you still willing to bet on a Singapore summit between Trump and Un? For China everything is about trade. NK is a side show for them. They can easily live with a United Korea bordering China.

Trump is on the edge for sure.

Do you think he should just mail them a big check for doing nothing and leave it at that as Obama would have done?

Also, if this thing poops out, do you and your ilk think that we should give the hostages back just to make sure that Trump gets credit for nothing?

So, the Chinese are on board, as discussed. And it is all about trade to the Chinese, as discussed. Trump needs cooperation in North Korea and leverages trade issues with the Chinese to accomplish that, as discussed. And China can live with a united Korea and the Americans, and the South Koreans want that too, as discussed.

Thank you for your agreement on those points.

Good place to leave it.
 
America has zero leverage on trade issues. Where do you think America was if Chinese did not buy their debt and if the plastic shit every American had at his home was 4 times as expensive. I think you have no imagination how thinks look when Chinese actually start tightening the screws. They have not even begun. Welcome to dream country in Trump's rose garden.

I see. Well, "zero" is a rather low value. I did not know that America had zero leverage.

Meanwhile, just in. French company pulling out of Iran unless they can get a trade waiver from the U.S. Yeh, it's a bitch when you have choose between trading with the U.S or Iran.

Looks like the French company did not get your memo on the "zero leverage" bit.

Alright not zero but a lot less than what Trump makes you and your nice friends believe. By the way Total has not left Iran and they won't. They may delay or cancel the project in question. And even that has not been decided yet. And do you honestly believe this bullying will make America more friends? Seriously, in what twisted reality are you living?

Don't miss this news by the way...

With North Korea, it’s always been a situation moving toward an event horizon. It just happens North Korea became icbm capable under his watch, could have been under Hillary’s too.

Any president would have held the ace in the hole, the US military. The goal has always been to avoid that. With Trump that likelihood is much greater.

Now, bringing hostages home is good but the bigger goal here is national security. The North Koreans, along with the Chinese, are triangulating against Trump right now. If Trump can move through these waters and come out on the other side without a full blown war, then he deserves credit but if he gets us into a war, or pays off the Chinese, then that’s not a different outcome than any other president would have gotten, if not worse.

Look, I don’t like Trump at all but I ain’t hoping for him to fail either. I’m glad he is restrained on twitter while the North Koreans are trying to provoke him right now but bending on ZTE isn’t a good move either. Paying ransoms for national security is simply more of the same and I’m surprised people are defending it.

Correct.

The North Koreans made such great strides under Obama, that the incoming president- whether Hillary or Trump- could not reverse that without taking extraordinary action/s.

Thank you Obama. NOT.
 
Kind of hard to believe when Trump authorizes his military to hold joint exercises with South Korea which started May 11.way to go a month before he intends to meet with Kim in Singapore. Are you calling this strategic or plain stupid?
