    I hope Trump can pronounce nuclear. Very important.

    Thank you for that link. I didn't know that story, although I am not surprised.

    The best part of it was that in the end Carl Icahn got the house!

    I am sure it had a dual purpose. 1) Icahn would have known the trouble Trump had had with it and he loves a dig like that. Icahn thinks Trump is an idiot, from what I understand. 2) He probably figured for $500K+, as a flyer, if the gaming in Atlantic City has a revival, he might be able to turn it into significantly more $$.

    Trump withdraws US military from cooperation and presence in South Korea
    North Korea promises to host Trump to the new Trump Hotel and International Golf Club at Pyongyang

    That’s about it?
    Trump gives North Korea everything and gets a picture of him with Dear Leader.

    Big man, pig man
    Ha, ha, charade you are
    You well heeled big wheel
    Ha, ha, charade you are
    And when your hand is on your heart
    You're nearly a good laugh
    Almost a joker
    With your head down in the pig bin
    Saying 'Keep on digging'
    Pig stain on your fat chin

    The Kims have been signing and violating the same denuclearization promise since 1985.

    ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

    I would be very interested to learn what South Korean media and the public are saying about the meeting. So far, haven't seen anything in English I can read,

    I read two things that stuck out. ... (but I can't remember where). South Korean media said that Kim arrived first out of respect. The younger person is supposed to get there before the older one. Also, I read that South Korean media was saying that Kim was wearing platform shoes to make himself look taller.
