Why is the MSM not covering this???!!!??
Only open secrets.org and mcclstchdc have the scoop.
Is the MSM in the tank for Trump now?

Mclatchy IS mainstream media. Opensecrets is not a startup. The original claims go back many months to a Congressional hearing on the opposition research for Trump. That wasn't the only thing to come out of those hearings. Lots of questions left.
Meanwhile in Singapore, Trump kept flattering Kim and even called the totalitarian leader talented... a joint statement from the leaders contained no concrete steps to achieve denuclearization other than vowing future meetings.
The dictator romance continues! Once again, nothing accomplished.
I can't imagine how stupid Obama feels right now knowing that Trump just eclipsed his legacy in less than 2 years in office. haha

He's got a legacy now. Giving a murderous tyrant everything he wants.
Disgusting.

You mean sitting down with the North Korean dictator for a photo op?
The only way you can frame this as a win for Trump is of you're phenomenally stupid and/or delusional. He has won nothing beyond a vague assurance of commitment to nuclear disarmament with no further details on specifics or time frames and had made his success as a president dependent upon the actions of a regime as notoriously unreliable and unhinged as himself.

Nothing accomplished? My God you are dumb.

Incorrect, I believe others are honest too, even lying Gary :) he and other trumpers are being honest in their unwavering loyalty and faith in Trump - I think they actually believe him and in him. In that respect, my thoughts are certainly not universal. However, some things are true whether you or I or anyone else believes in them or not.
I like discourse and I am fascinated by the short-sightedness of Trumpers. I am more fascinated that most have not really thought their position through. Those blasting globalism for example... I’m amazed they haven’t stopped to consider that it’s the core connectivity and dependencies rooted in globalization that has kept major conflicts in check since WW2. Take UN, it is a purely bureaucratic body.. most trumpers think it should be eliminated for having no value. Yet it’s hard to argue it has served as a mechanism to buffer all sorts of potentially disastrous outcomes. We can complain about these globalists and their bureaucracy all we want but that all has been a tiny price to pay for enduring peace.
If interested, served in the Marine Corps, 0351, 1 extended tour in Iraq and a 6-month tour in Afghanistan. Got out in 2007.
FYI- Eye Salute You Sir is jaminLoper.
No, that's not possible. Neither would post something like that. Nice try coward.

Granted. It wasn’t hard to do.
Yeah, the Corrupt Clintons don't like to be asked tough questions. Nice candidate you liberals backed up.
let's see...Trump gives kim credibility, Trump abandons military exercises with firm ally, Trump praises this murderous despot., trump scares our allies. And we get...we get...things NK has already promised and not delivered.

Seriously - Spanky got his as$ handed to him. So he can come home and claim some victory which his personality cult followers will believe.

Listen noob.
Diplomacy is not solved in one meeting. You are just spouting the talking points promoted by the libs today. Turn off the media and make up your own conclusions. Don’t just regurgitate someone else’s.
If you want to engage in meaningful discussions here, you’re going to have to learn to formulate your own opinions.
Got it? Good.

noob. hah. You have no idea who you are dealing with.
Anyway, yeah sure we'll see how this goes. Maybe giving up leverage early in negotiation and joking around with the greatest human rights violator on the planet is the korekt move.
I'm curious - you were ok with the iran deal and for obaam opening up to Cuba too, right?

Let me see, agip continues to show his huge bias for the liberals, dismisses everything the Clintons and Obama did, and then rips Trump for going to North Korea. So then, is there anything he could do to please you besides taking a big sh*t on your face?

This is it. They blasted the formation of the Iran deal every single step of the way. Then they said Trump will solve problems with the snap of his fingers because he's an outsider and genius deal maker. Now they are asking for time to let the diplomatic exercise unfold. Trump has always been this egomaniac with a binary view of the world - he has proven he isn't going to learn on the job. He enters these discussions with NK on a losing position, having taken a political risk to get this win and with Kim knowing he needs to look good for his base in the US. Based on this, how is Trump NOT going to give up something for free to get the ball rolling? I'm not assuming he will actually keep his promise and not conduct the exercises, nor do I think he should if Kim doesn't prove he's working toward peace. However, we all know what will happen. Kim will return home to reality knowing his only bargaining chip is the nuclear operation, so fat chance that will stop. Trump will return home to reality knowing he has suckered his base into believing he's a strong leader who is making the world safer and sticking it to our enemies. What will change in the end? At home, not much, Trump's supporters will continue to be loyal, but in the global political stage we simply keep losing credibility.
Except no one is here to please anyone or discuss the Clintons and Obamas, because as you know they are irrelevant. Try again

And while watching FOX 25% of the time, tweeting 15% of the time, and getting briefed on important matters via custom-made infographics the remaining 10% of the time.

This thread is about the inauguration of Donald Trump. You're off topic, so anyone else can be. Glad you voted for a real rapist and are proud of it. Obama and Clinton would never he think of going to NK, ever. You are all little baby hypocrites. Soooooo damn glad he kicked Hillary to the curb a year and a half ago, can't stop smiling. It bugs you, doesn't it? LOL!!!!
