Tell the real truth, you are really concerned and worried about Miles. If he was not there you would not care.

I do love miles but beanz is playing hard to get so I'm interested
Re: Trump meeting rocket man
I think it will be a lovely meeting. They will get along well. Hopefully an end to this posturing.
Re: Trump meeting rocket man
I think they should have a sumo wrestle and the winner gets Korea.
Re: Trump meeting rocket man
It really is historic. The US has been kicking the Best Korea can down the road since the fifties. We have a prez willing to meet him. This could be a total blowoff but the fact it may happen is something new. According to defectors like in Best Korea is as bad if not worse than what the media reports. If life for those people can be approved and we can get of this war footing I think it will be a tremendous aceivment. Worse that can happen is it will stay the same or get worse
Re: Trump meeting rocket man
Kim Jong Un is going to pee his pants....."OMG the cool kid is coming to my table! OMG OMG!!!!"
Donald Trump might be a nightmare for the media but I'll be damned if he doesn't just get shit done or at the very least attempt to.
Re: Trump meeting rocket man
I don't know if I'd give that frog faced despot the satisfaction and stage. I like spontaneity but Trump has essentially showed his hand and lets be honest both of these guys change their minds with the same frequency that they change their socks. I'd have more faith if the President had announced this directly or in unison with South Korean reps. Talking beats pissing in the wind and both talking about blowing stuff up, but all it is at the moment is a mic drop for the news cycle and a move on, wait and see.
Re: Trump meeting rocket man
NK have spent seventy years trying to get an American prez to meet with them. The world's greatest negotitator agreed to a meeting in a second. But now he's backing off, nobody knows, let's see what he thinks tomorrow or next week. Now he's booted Tillerson out the Iran agreement will probably get ripped up right around the time this supposed summit is supposed to happen. So what confidence would NK have that America would ever stick to an agreement? Also, too, Gaddaffi lasted eight years after a similar WMD agreement with America before being overthrown by American-backed rebels.
So total incoherent nonsense foreign policy to go with the equivalent trade and domestic/economic stuff. Trump is sacking all the adults/sane people in the administration and replacing them with crazy yes men. The downward spiral is going to accelerate.

Re: Trump meeting rocket man
Ooooooh a special election in a district that Trump won by 20 points is won by a Democrat. There are roughly 120 seats less competitive than this one in November and the Democrats need to only win 24 to take control of the House. If they win the House they get subpoena power and can spend the next two years dissecting Trunp nightly on TV. His tax returns will be the first thing to get subpoenaed. It'll be genuinely difficult to keep up with all the different investigations.
That's if Mueller hasn't nailed him by then anyway.
And with this stunning turnaround in a safe Republican seat that the Democrats haven't even contested in over a decade and were outspent massively we go live to Democratic party headquarters:

Drawing on his background as a Marine and former federal prosecutor, Lamb disowned Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif., and staked out positions on abortion, guns and fracking that hewed closer to the GOP.
But Lamb also embraced the classics of the Democratic playbook, hammering Saccone for allegedly wanting to cut Social Security and Medicare, and uniting Pittsburgh's powerful unions behind him in a way no Democrat had before in that district.
While the district will soon no longer exist, thanks to a recent ruling by the Pennsylvania Supreme Court, and one House seat is not worth much in 2018 Washington, the race was nonetheless freighted with real consequences for both parties as they gear up for a crucial midterm election.
Huge win Kirkland, HUGE :-\

Yes Lyle, it'll no longer exist because the USSC refused to allow the GOP to keep gerrymandering the entire state and a lower court has now drawn up entirely new state districts that mean the GOP no longer have a massive inbuilt advantage.
In 2012 Democratic candidates won more votes statewide in PA House elections and Obama won the state. But Republicans won 13 seats and Democrats just won five. So in November Lamb will be running in a new district much more favourable to him and the Democrats will likely pick up a bunch of House seats elsewhere in PA.
And it is a huge win Lyle. Even Trump turning up for a rally and imposing tariffs didn't stop the GOP losing. It portends the Democrats winning back the House, which means subpoena power, which means endless investigations. Alexa, order all the popcorn.

As I was saying yesterday Trump is on a competent person sacking spree. Cohn and Tillerson gone in the last week and now McMaster is next for the chop apparently. Trump's new Chief Economic Advisor is apparently going to be Larry Kudlow. If you google Larry Kudlow always wrong or Larry Kudlow stupidest man alive you'll get a good idea about Kudlow in particular and the triumph of ideology over reality in the GOP in general. It really does look like Trump is firing all the qualified/competent people in his administration and replacing them with an elite team of blithering idiots.
