So will Trump get the Nobel Peace Prize if it works out with N Korea like Obama did for, wait, what did Obama get it for ? Oh just being Obama I guess

Ya know, I can even sort of see where Obama got a lot of credit for not being Bush sometimes, but Trump, for better or worse, is making a much bigger splash on the world scene, and ought to be judged own his own merit (or lack thereof, but my point is still the same).

I guess we'll see how the Swedes feel about the US picking fights with its allies and cosying up to authoritarian regimes like North Korea and Russia, but somehow.. Sweden, Russia, I just don't see it happening that quickly.

Then again, I'm an ignorant American.

@MistyCee Rump is giving---one thing at a time---to both N. Korea and to Russia that they both crave. For N. Korea it's recognition that they are equal world powers--BECAUSE they are nuclear--or capable. It shows we fear them. We are willing to give n. Korea ANYTHING they want---because they have a nuke. What message does that send to any terrorist group who can get their hands on a nuke? In the Ping-Pong and Ding-Dong summit we gave n. Korea EVERYTHING they wanted on their wish list and we got what?? Nothing. N. Korea just showed terrorist everywhere they are stronger than we are. For Russia--their goal is to replace the U.S. as the leading world power. By playing Rump with business deals and compliments to soothe his ego Rump has been more favorable and glowing in how he talks about Putin and now Un than he does all of our allies. That is moving us to an isolated position in the world--standing alone. That means we have less power than we did with allies backing us and that opens the door for Russia to take the spot we now (used to) occupy on the global platform....for trade..for alliances...for power. Rump is giving America away--with one foolish act after another. There are now 71 republicans not running for re-election in the congress. Up until now they ALL had misplaced their spines. None of them did anything but smile as Rump was sinking our ship. Now--with nothing to lose--most all of them have said what should have been said long ago--if they had the balls to do it----Rump is not doing America any good. If we don't impeach this fool after the midterms.....imagine what's next?
