When Trump shouts "Fake News" all the time and doesn't give specific examples of it, it looks bad

So did Reagan, and behold he carries 48 states

We're not going to change Trump! Focus on things we can be productive with!

Issue is, Trump's not going to change, we've got to work with what we've got.

I'm not saying we will,

I'm saying it's unrealistic to expect Independents to go with Trump unless his rhetoric changes

unless,

extraordinary circumstances

like a denuclearized NK

seemingly extraordinary

but I'm not convinced it will happen

nothing is 100%

I don't see why Kim would just give up power like that

for safety

His economy is tanking

look up the "madman theory"

But Kim is well-off

He's well-fed

His can't feed his own officers or fund his military

he has a comfortable lifestyle

Yeah but when you have no toys it sucks

do you think a man like Kim has sympathy for others?

He can't fund his WMD's

No

Not anyone's point

Yeah lpl

Look it up, "madman theory"

The problem is that this country’s children has been brainwashed since kindergarten, even since they’re born if their family is atheist because they teach “Republicans are evil since they defend Christianity and they’re bigoted”

The point is he had nothing to play with, or build, so he's willing to talk to relieve sanctions

Kim probably doesn't give a fuck anything other than his own well being

Most likely yes

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Madman_theory

This was a strategy used in foreign policy during the Nixon days

If you are unpredictable, people will tread cautiously.

Lol yep

"MY NUCLEAR BUTTON IS TWICE THE SIZE OF YOURS"

That was what did it

Kim isn't doing this over a change of heart

And Kim seeing Trump's cabinet turn over pressed

He's doing it because he's fucking terrified

I heard his diplomat called the White House after Cohen resigned asking "What's going on, can't you control that guy (the president).

And he was like nope we have no control over hom

The point is the only man a crazy person fears

He doesn't want to die in a thermonuclear blast, because Obama wasn't going to do it, Bush wasn't, Clinton wasn't, but Trump seemed like he might.

Is a more crazy man

So now Kim is the one taking orders.

Which Trump is one crazy SOB <3

hm, Trump wouldn't strike first

and I think Kim might know that

Kim doesn't know that

*might

It sure looks like Trump would though

This is the point of the strategy

Trump actually could and it looks like it

You have no clue what someone is up to.

think of the political blowback if Trump pre-emptively strikes NK

2 more carrier groups deployed to the Korean Pennisula, the American forces there have been mobilized and the Air Force has flown bombers closer to NK than ever before

Kim is on the defensive

He probably won't

Plus economic Sanctions

It's the fear that counts.

He probably won't, but that's not what is important

All Kim sees, is a madman commanding the most powerful military in history

And has threatened to level his country already

We want Kim to believe that some crazy fuck can blow him to shreds at any moment

So he would want tensions to cool real quickly.

The sanctions + Reagan's peace through strength
It is entirely likely Kim is serious about these talks

When you know you're going to get away with something, you're going to keep doing it

Exactly lol

Kim's not so sure he can do that with Trump.

We could use the Arab spring as arguments against the democrats and show their hypocrisy.

Trump already made an example out of Syria

With Obama, of course.
With Bush, of course.
With Clinton, of course.

He will strike first

I want everyone to remember something

If he has too

ISIS has been eradicated under Trump

But Trump is something much different.

almost no talk about it

no effect on his approval

ISIS hasn't been around as long as NK you dumb shit

ISIS is an easy problem.

Blow it up

The media doesn’t care

And Kim has talked about signing a treaty for the Korean War

There's no diplomacy, no nuclear warheads

We've been on an armistice for 50 years

Good point

knowing the media,

No diplomacy no huge warfare

they'll find a way to downplay it

It's just air strikes

They know they can't.

Of course, but it gets to a point where it'll still sork

I _hope_ they can't

When something is so vig

Big*

They'll try to credit someone else

like the Chinese premier

or even Obama
