a lot of ink has been spilled on the pomp and circumstance of trump donald trump's summits in the ongoing love affair he claims with kim jong-un but what is actually been the result of nearly three years of trump's north korean diplomacy besides stroking his ego? the answer is, nothing. kim continues to fire missiles into the sea of japan, he continues to quietly move up his nuclear stockpile even though freeze on nuclear long-range missile test is temporary and the north koreans are warning they might resume that at the end of the year. meanwhile, we abandoned the south koreans we canceled our joint military exercises we nearly withdrew our troops entirely, kim got international recognition and essentially a free pass to keep building his arsenal in making it more deadly while we weakened all of our regional alliances. america and the world are dramatically less safe right now. all over the world in fact, dictators and would-be dictators are making up stunning records of human rights abuses right now because they know under president trump america will really raise no issue. no protest.
