Can you imagine Kim beclowning Obama the way he is beclowning Trump ?

I can't.

1. No, I can't.

3. The Kim family are notoriously hard to to deal with

The difference is Trump said it would be easy and has legitimized him.

4. They "fell in love."

Can't imagine President Obama ever saying anything that stupid.

2. Nobody ever beclowned Obama, as much as the GOPers tried.

It just couldn't be done, ever, by anybody. But since Trump is a clown already, all anybody needs to do is add the big red nose (he already has weird orange hair).

5. Kim is Lucy, Trump is Charlie Brown.

Simple as that...

6. This is a regime change strategy

So in that respect not much has changed. Trump's posturing is just a hoax while Bolton and Pompeo pray the regime collapses.

Neither Pompeo nor Trump have the political nerve to actually negotiate with a communist regime, so that leaves Bolton in the drivers seat.

Trump is the clown. Kim is actually in a very challenging situation bordering on desperation.
