i think Trump and Kim both knew that the process would take time. Neither one of them lost face, which is vital. The North Koreans have no hope of surviving a militarily confrontation -- and OTOH they are looking at a prospect of a very bright future (which Trump never forgets to point out, like in the tweet below). Thats a powerful combination of pressure and incentives. Kim will need assurances with regard to his own future and that of his leadership. It looks like a deal is in the works. For Trump the challenge will be how to translate this into a success in Iran. Their FM Zarif was retired... hopefully this will help open talks. Maybe it's even an overture of some sort... but let's not get ahead of ourselves. Vietnam is thriving like few places on earth. North Korea would be the same, and very quickly, if it would denuclearize. The potential is AWESOME, a great opportunity, like almost none other in history, for my friend Kim Jong Un.
