5/4/19: Remember when “repeal and replace” was going to be easy? Remember when Mexico was going to pay for the wall? And remember when North Korea was “no longer a nuclear threat?” Those were blissful times. Delusional times, true, but the MAGA crowd cheered every ridiculous claim the president made.
Now, with his term of office half over, the Great Deal Maker has still not managed to convince the North Koreans to give up a single nuke. For some reason, that doesn’t bother Trump. On Saturday, the president brushed off news that the North had test-fired short-range missiles, tweeting to make his point:
Anything in this very
interesting world is possible, but I believe that Kim Jong Un fully realizes
the great economic potential of North Korea, & will do nothing to interfere
or end it. He also knows that I am with him & does not want to break his
promise to me. Deal will happen [emphasis added]!
Yes, anything in this “very interesting world” is
possible. It is possible, likely, even, that Kim Jong-un has played Trump for a
chump.
