If Trump cuts a deal with North Korea, it will be the Iran Deal on steroids.
Or maybe Trump cuts no deal with North Korea, in which case Trump walks away with nothing and Kim Jong Un walks away with the President of the United States having flown to North Korea, shook Kim's hand and smiled and said nice and flattering things about him while news cameras captured every moment of it for global public consumption, thus legitimizing Kim as the rightful leader of a nuclear-armed nation. Who wins in that scenario?
But here's a spoiler alert for you: under no circumstance is Kim going to give up a bunch of stuff in exchange for nothing, just because Trump is such a big scary tough guy who browbeat him into submission. That is absolutely not going to happen.
Trump is playing right into Kim Jong Un's hands. He's playing Trump like a fiddle. Trump is going to give Kim the greatest propaganda coup of all time and Kim has to give up almost nothing for it.
