    Always the war hawk.

    Why the impossible expectation for full denuke is dangerous.

    Congress doesn't matter. This was always a likely possibility and one reasons why team trump is so willing to have the summit. Trump is not going to seek approval from Congress to start a war and Bolton is itching on the sideline to start one.

    Perhaps TMI... but a reminder of who trump is meeting with (and Kim's move to show he might be the crazier of the two. Might).

    "Kim, we're not asking you to get rid of your nukes, you just have to say you're getting rid of the nukes. We wrote down the lines" splash! Art of the deal!!! personally, I would have brought jordan, Hakeem, drexler and tinman to remind kim how great the 90s were.

    So, if Trump gets an agreement with Kim, will he be sending it to Congress to be ratified?

    Depends on the agreement. If it doesn't require significant actions by the US (e.g. troop reduction or withdrawal, reduction of US nukes, ongoing payments, etcs), than it doesn't need to be ratified. But Congress should at least be involved in the review and have an agreed process to disapprove of any deal.

    this is been happening since his father's time. When Kim Jon il was alive and visited Beijing, they collected all his poops and brought it back to North Korea. Super paranoid people.

    Admit it most of you guys don’t want this to happen, it just further legitimizes Trumps legacy.

    Except for trump worshippers, most people don’t care about an individual legacy and certainly not over the success of the US and the world.

    You say that but many in the D&D would actively root against the interests of the US and the world if it made Trump look bad.....and funny enough, those are the same people who are overly concerned about defending the idea of Obama's legacy despite him not actually doing anything positive for the US or the world.

    Suggesting otherwise isn't really going to fool anyone.

    I’m have been very clear that I support the summit (even with all the potential negatives) in the various NK threads.

    I’m trying to say you worry about his legacy too much. The US and the world success is more important than any one person legacy. I find it weird that people are concern about that. Even with Obama’s, that often comes up. Who give a care. I guess it has to do with the western emphasis on the individual.

    Sounds like what you Trump fans/Republicans did for Obama. Actively Root against him. Obama didn't do anything positive? LOL. The economy Trump inherited is directly related to the steps Obama took in 2009/2010 to get the US out of deep recession. That is one thing.

    It's like you are doing your best to be ignorant when it comes to labeling people. I'm neither a Republican or a Trump fan....but then again you've been told that many times and yet you cling to your ignorance for fear that your world perspective might be destroyed by reality.

    To answer your question, no, Obama didn't do anything positive.....other than cost his party control of congress which led to slightly more responsible legislation....and he certainly didn't want that to happen.

    Anyway, you are a good example of someone who is constantly on his knees sucking off Obama that would actively root against the interests of the US and the world in the hopes that it would make Trump look bad. Unfortunately you aren't the only extremist down here that feels that way.
