Kim Jong-un depended on Trump to guide him through the summit.

  1.  Jun 12
    (1) Let's talk about what all the pundits and "experts" missed. Kim Jong-un depended on Trump to guide him through the summit. Trump gently made all the first moves.

    (2) By all accounts, Kim Jong-un is a passive young man. His late brother Kim Jong-nam said that Kim was not leadership material.

    (3) TWO brothers were passed over to make Kim Jong-un the leader. When you have a man who never wanted the job but was forced into it, he must be treated with empathy. Trump did so.

    (4) North Korea is called the Hermit Kingdom. I'm a hermit. Later today I have to go to the Department of Motor Vehicles. I'll have to take a nap when I come home.

    (5) When Kim Jong-un met with President Moon and now Trump, he was breathing very heavily. He doesn't want any of this responsibility. So Trump is HELPING him.

    (6) When you're a shy hermit and you interact with Type A Alpha males with empathy, you know what they love? They love to see you come out of your shell.

    (7) Kim said something that made Trump's jaw drop, and then he laughed in a way that has never before been caught on camera.

      (9) Trump knows how hard this is for Kim. But Kim did it anyway. So that makes him a great man.

      (10) Trump admires courage and the willingness to improve. All the commentary is from surface skaters who either know nothing or were wedding to the failed 70-year strategy of FORCING North Korea into compliance.

      (11) I don't view the North Koreans as children who need to be protected. BUT. "Face" and national honor mean the world to them.

      (12) Kim and Trump are friends. So far Kim has said at least ten times, "We've put the past behind us." The "experts" missed that.

      (13) My prediction is that North Korea will--without fanfare--denuclearize, make peace with the South, and then begin a multi-step reunification process. And it will all happen very quickly.

      (14) AGAIN, Trump is the flak catcher. "He didn't get anything! He's a LOSER!" Trump doesn't care, and neither should you.

      (15) This takes the pressure off of Kim, both at home and abroad. All is already well. Trump's enemies will be forced to admit it in fairly short order...

      (16) ADDENDUM:
      I heard a caller on Prager today say that his Korean wife pointed out that the word Kim used was "buried" the past, which is a much stronger way to make the point of putting the past behind them.

      Based on what I observed, acted like a concerned and caring parent guiding a son to think and make the right choice.

      Look at Pompeo's face/smile during the meeting. It really looks as though they are proud of him...

      👍 Kim looked reserved and out of his element with all the cameras, reporters and attention. President Trump seemed very hospitable and eased Kim into the situation. You can never end a conflict... from the most minor, to one of this magnitude without open communication.

      That’s also the assessment of another very astute student of human behavior. said “Kim just needed an uncle “ find it here: I think so too.

      Last night while I watched Trump almost take care of Kim, I felt like Kim must really wish he still had a father & Trump almost filled the role. Brilliantly & w/empathy.
