#3  if the foreign dictators misconstrue the antics of the leftist dominated MSM to indicate that any Republican president of the US is minutes away from falling to a coup d'état?

Yes. And not just the dictators. They also believe all the rest of it —stupid cowboys who are a danger to all.

I remember endless stories of previously George W-despising entertainers and otherwise coming out from a one-on-one meeting with him gushing about how perceptive, knowledgeable, and intelligent he was.

#2  I think Kim's recent behavior was not unexpected. In the past US negotiators had always been willing to settle for cosmetic or fake concessions and were mainly interested in doing what would look best to domestic audiences in the USA. Naturally at every stage he can be expected to test if Trump will do the same.
Trump said no.
This does not end the negotiations, but is a step that had to be experienced if they are to get anywhere. Trump's response was necessary for the possibility of the negotiations actually getting somewhere to stay alive.

#1  I always wonder if the foreign dictators misconstrue the antics of the leftist dominated MSM to indicate that any Republican president of the US is minutes away from falling to a coup d'état? Or did Pudgy just have the age old problem of bad advice from toadying advisers ... both?
