On North Korea, Trump is a chump and a liar

Harris L Foreign Policy, Trump Lies July 12, 2018 1 Minute

Kim Jong-un has really outplayed Trump.

Trump said North Korea is not a nuclear threat anymore. This is a lie. The document they signed is vague and North Korea is actually adding to their nuclear capacity.

Pompeo’s most trip to North Korea was a failure.

Trump said that some remains of US troops from the Korean War have been returned. This is a lie. North Koreans stood the US up on a meeting today on it. He also said parents of the troops asked for the remains. They would have to be 101 at least. This is almost definitely a lie.

Kim Jong-un sent Trump a flattering letter. He fell for it and said there is great progress. So far, Trump gave up the military exercise and got nothing much in return. What a chump. Sad!

Remember this?

“We got back our great fallen heroes, the remains sent back today, already 200 got sent back” – @realDonaldTrump (6/20/18)

There is clearly nothing he won’t lie about. https://t.co/g1iUCr8CI2

The murderous dictator of North Korea has not done anything tangible in the way of “denuclearization.”

But he did call Trump “your excellency” 5 times in as many paragraphs. So there’s that. https://t.co/TRWl2FDpza

North Koreans didn’t show up to a planned meeting w/ US officials at the DMZ. They were expected to continue discussions on repatriating remains of Americans killed during the Korean War, a US official tells @eliselabottcnn. No call or explanation on why they skipped the meeting

Now that our intel agencies have told us NK is boosting its nuclear weapons capacity and that Trump’s “deal” was a total bust, will Trump’s 40% believe him when he lies and denies the nuclear danger — just as he lies about Russia’s cyberwar on our elections? Dangerous if yes!

Surprise! Trump’s “deal” with Kim Jong Un didn’t actually end the North Korean nuclear threat and increasingly looks on track to be an embarrassing disaster https://t.co/52okgXgEr5

U.S. officials tell Reuters that military exercises with South Korea would have cost $14 million. Two weeks ago, Trump said, "We spend tens of millions — hundreds of millions of dollars on these." https://t.co/wzoZaB6I0V
