korea s interest. is president trump just being naive? i think president trump is so taken u with his own personality and his ego, he thinks he can talk his way in and out of anything. he s inexperienced and this is going to come back i think to bite him. not a lot isng t really accomplished. i hope it does but i don t think a lot will and we re going to be grinding this thing out how to deal with north korea s nuke or ile capability over the next one, two o three years. it going to take time. as the former ambassador to china until very recently, you mentioned a second ago xi obviously has a dog in this fight. it was china who provided the 747 for kim to fly those 3,000 miles to singapor hasn t it been china s long-time goal to get rid troops from the peninsula?
