I'm no fan of Trump, and there is much to still despise about him .. but if he can successfully ease tensions between N. Korea and the US..
with this personal form of diplomacy, well good on him. Hope that works out.

"Tensions" with North Korea do not concern us. Their nukes do. Which Kim isn't giving up.
Deescalating tensions, and throwing Kim's regime recognition without tangible steps toward denuclearization, simply wastes our cards and produces nothing.
Unless what we're looking towards here is a normalization of a nuclear NK. Which, I suppose, would be somewhat pragmatic in the end, but not exactly an accomplishment.

It seems as if this is what we're pushing for, as N. Korea is not going to be giving up its nukes. The agreement would probably be to freeze further nuke development, accept the status quo, and sell the "retreat" as inevitable, because of Obama, Hillary and the email server.
