Trump has now given up maximum pressure on North Korea, given up joint military practices with SK per Kim's request, all for 1 page of empty promises, no verification, and no support from anyone other country outside of NK's allies in Russia and China.
Got to love politics.
What exactly did Trump "give up" other than canceling a military exercise? A symbolic gesture that costs us nothing. We literally gave away nothing, as in not a thing. This process wasn't going to take place over one night, if it's to be done correctly it's going to take some time. Seriously the predictable whinging on this, and other, boards on this subject is nauseating.
