> By the way, sanctions didn't do anything to weaken Russia's resolve. Heck, even the Russia World Cup is still on. So much for isolating Russia from the international community.

That might have a little something to do with Trump wanting Russia in G7.

Trump has totally boxed in Little Kim. If he accepts Trump's terms, he gets good things, if he refuses, as far as Kim knows, he gets fire and fury. It is a no-brainer.

But Russia is one loose screw hanging out there, and Trump knew that.

I don't know that Putin is gullible to fall for it, but Trump has put it on the table: If Russia helps us out with NK, we could help Russia out with some of its issues.

Trump is brilliant with this stuff. I've seen hard-core negotiators work, but never anyone on this level.
