Who’s doing the negotiations though? There are a lot of key diplomatic positions still vacant.
Dr. Ben Carson.
He’s just as qualified for that as for his current position I suppose.
Kim is likely more rational than Trump. Analysts believe that he is motivated by a desire to preserve his position as the dictator of North Korea. Trump, on the other hand, has proven time and time again that he is not motivated by any kind of rational goal.

If you think I’m watching that Arnold clip because I pretty much click everything no matter what, you’re right.
Until they actually meet, NK has done nothing different than they’ve done a bunch of times before. The only difference so far is that the President said yes.
You mean aside from dismantling a nuclear test site, which satellite imagery shows they’re doing?
I’m not going to claim this is fact, but I swear that on one of the political podcasts I listen to they reported that the site was basically collapsing in on itself anyway so they just did it to get the brownie points.
Maybe 25 years of doing basically nothing got us…basically nothing. Other than a North Korean nuclear weapons program, of course.
Did I say Trump shouldn’t talk with them? I fully support it. One of the very few (possibly only) things I think he’s done right.
The negotiations will continue. I wouldn’t be surprised if these “cancellations” were prearranged.
You’re veering off into conspiracy talk there.
Although Trump is our first reality show / nothing is real / only ratings matter President, so what the hell, you’re probably right.
There are the public negotiations, and then there are the private negotiations over how the negotiations will be presented to the public and the rest of the world.
I take it you’re involved it the private negotiations then.
Even basic business negotiations involve setting the stage and making sure everyone comes out looking good. I’ve never been involved in a political negotiation, but I’m assuming the basic concepts are the same.
Have you been involved in basic business negotiation with the two craziest people on the planet?
Although that may be unfair to the North Korean guy I suppose. Not really sure.
We’ll see how it all plays out.
Jay is Trump sock confirmed.
I hope you’re talking golf.
So do the porn stars.

All this is predicated on the notion that Donald Trump has any idea what he’s doing. He’s made clear time and time again that he does not understand any of the issues that he tweets about. I guarantee he couldn’t even name all three dictators that North Korea has had in its existence, or the terms of the ceasefire, etc. etc.
To be clear when I said this is the first thing he’s done correctly, that’s based on the assumption that someone else will actually be in charge of the negotiation and he’ll be playing golf with porn stars while it’s happening.
I hope golf isn’t a euphemism.
I’m sure the porn stars hope that too.

NK has always been trying to meet with US leaders. Trump is just the first to legitimize the Kim regime with an offer to meet.
I KNOW!!!
😛
So diplomacy is the answer? Just not too much diplomacy?
What do I look like, a diplomat?

I hate seeing YouTube videos
WYSHS
well, i had forgotten this thread existed. i’m not sure when i’ll be able to see it, but i’ll be going in with Oprah expectations.

Solo reactions coming in, all positive so far, which probably means it’s safe to assume people on this site will hate it.
Don’t cut yourself on that edge, pal.
I’m reading that it’s clunky, but finds it way once the main plot kicks in. Excited, but also nervous about it as well.
Sorry, I meant to say everyone here will love it, as is always the case.
Just catching up…
Lol.
I like This one.
Fixed. 😛
I don’t if most would consider it bad (as opposed to just not good), but I love Revenge of the Sith.
Yes most would consider it bad.
A plotline with Boyega, Tran, and Del Toro. Not bad.
Still had a white (male?) droid though.
I like this one.

Why would he sign something long on commas and short on uppercase letters?
Well at least one of those is from the 70s. 😉
Don’t forget notable white man Kathleen Kennedy running the whole thing.
I’m not saying they’re perfect, but it’s an improvement. And yes I’d like to see more voices at the table, no question.
