Knock it all you want but feel free to give me an example of a president who had a better idea for dealing with little rocket man. If we can't prevent them from continuing their nuclear program (which we can't) them we might as well try to make nice.
Bush, Obama, and Clinton were all thinking they would be the ones to change NK's trajectory by being chummy.

I think Trump has done the most to keep him from using nukes

@Frownland

You're not hearing me.

Trump won't change the trajectory. Nothing will.

So it's better to try to be on their good side... Since truth be told we don't want war. None of the above mentioned actually tried this. They slightly deescalated tensions. That's about all.

There's a good reason Trump was the first prez to walk across the DMZ. Cause no other president would.

This is gonna make it look like I still support Trump but this is really one of the very few issues where I do. And it's cause frankly it's a situation that no president has improved and which grows scarier by the year. So yes I support trying to be friendly with little rocket man cause I frankly don't see what alternative we have open to us.

Trump just made a bigger show of it.

In NK, everything is a big show. They live and die by their propaganda narrative.

Yeah. Once a country has nukes all the bluster and sanctions and power from other countries are either worthless or vastly less valuable. They can turn cities into craters. Congrats. Diplomacy just became 90% less effective. NK just getting nuclear weapons was a loogie in our eye we can't counteract that makes us rightfully look weak.

And this is why his dealings with Iran are so pitiful.

Don't think about the dumb **** he did 5 minutes ago, Q3 just started. It's basically a clean slate.

Say what you will about the guy, but he's definitely the sharpest crayon in the box of crayon.
