    I’m predicting that Democrats respond by drawing homophobic fan art of Trump and Kim Jong Un together. They’ll also say Trump is a Communist again.

    Last time this happened, Trump paused the Ulchi Freedom Guardian war games in 2019 and every liberal insisted that the war games continue. It was good that the war games were paused but short lived.

    I’m doubting Trump will actually stop the war games permanently. Liberals claim that DPRK loves Trump, but I’ve only ever seen KCNA publish articles saying that US foreign policy doesn’t change based on the president elected. I’ve seen 2 KCNA articles critical of Trump’s administration since he was inaugurated.

    Is there a strategic reason for Trump trying to soften relations with the DPRK? Only reason I can think of is trying to get the DPRK to support a us war against China, but I doubt they would support that so idk what he is thinking

          Being confronted with something as stupid and shallow as Trump is kinda terrifying, in its own way. But the reality is that sometimes a pen is just a pen.

        I remember him reaching the right time of day for a stopped clock last time he did a diplomacy with the DPRK it was something like “Doing diplomacy with other countries is a very normal thing and things won’t improve by not talking”.

        I think this is the reason. Plus it upsets libs when he shakes Kim’s hand so its a double win

        Yea that’s all there is to it. He loves deals and he views himself as a master deal maker.

        It’s a perfect deal in his eyes. He gets to look strong dealing with an enemy of America and he makes a deal no other president could/would make.

        Concessions to who? Like getting SK to be more of a dog to the USA than it already is?

      The DPRK has been building stronger ties with Russia in the past years, including military. Maybe they’ll try to break that up by offering them better deals, in the goal of weakening Russia.

      i honestly think it’s just his contrarian impulse. it leads to like one good thing out of every ten thousand so in between accelerating trans genocide and building resort hotels in Gaza he’ll also talk about developing relations with North Korea.

    Doubtful. The DPRK has made many statements over the last 7 years that they are unlikely to engage in any sort of rapprochement with the USA, unless America makes huge concessions like dropping denuclearization which I don’t see happening.

    If exercises can be ceased it will be a win for the DPRK. 4 years of no military exercises would offset the US’ capability to wage a war against them by at least 4 years if not more. The personnel that are currently well trained and up to speed with battle plans for a war with the DPRK will churn out of service and entirely new troops would need to be trained in a significant number of exercises. I’d wager it would take at least 2 years to bring back up to capability after Trump’s term is over.

    Could be worthwhile. What do they lose by stroking his ego if he’s willing to give something up to get it?

    “Oh okay mister Trump we understand you won’t back down on the denuclearisation so how about a middle ground? Stop the military exercises as a sign of good faith and we’ll open up relations.”
