A smirk. These innocent people are dead because of Trump and his Administrations flirting with Kim and this is the best they can offer?

Them not fully understanding their consequences when falling in love with Kim is another black eye on American history/reputation.

I have been vehement critic of Trump's summitry, but I don't hold him responsible for "killing" North Korean officials. 

Not clear the people are innocent, as they are part of the NK totalitarian elite who live comfortably while the bulk of their countrymen starve.  Certainly they are all "trapped" inside that regime, but these executions follow no logic that could be planned or prepared for or avoided.

Not defending Trump. But these executions are really not the kind of consequences that should have been on Trump's mind.  It's all the other stuff--the blow to US credibility, the fouling up of the sanctions regime, disruption of alliances, etc.
