Is it possible to say they were fooled, or bought in to what the POTUS said despite all past histories with NK and that almost everyone with experience and knowledge said it wouldn't happen?

I mean if people want to think that that means they are intellectually inferior that's on them. Maybe they could just admit they bought the snake oil.

"man folks" said it should not...not would not...happen. But again those were people who studied the situation over decades and had a good understanding of the ins and out of the diplomatic procedures. But "many folk" insisted that because it was Trump everything would be great because...Trump.

Wonderful. Instead NK's leader got a lot of free publicity, the POTUS to promise things and he didn't have to do anything at all.

Yay.
