My sense is Kim already has a backchannel deal with Xi or Putin.

Anything and everything from this point forward is gravy for him

Our Lord SprayTan has no such luxury. I suspect we'll be paying the price on the world stage.

Trump, I suspect, will be getting a political wedgie.

It's why he felt up to parading around town on that "tour" yesterday. That, and he already got what he wanted when Spanky legitimized him on the world stage with this meeting.

agree to remove all the troops from S. Korea. If that's what Sweet Daddy Vlad wants, that is.

Kim is going to get whatever he wants out of this. All Trump is worried about is getting a Nobel Peace Prize no matter what it takes. I just hope he doesn't let any classified intelligence material slip out of his mouth during these talks.

He can't weasel out of these agreements, even handshake agreements, which is what he is used to being able to do when it is convenient.

He scares the crap out of me.
