So North and South are talking again, and it appears that the on again, off again June 12th summit may be back on again. The White house is sending a "pre-advance team" to Singapore to prepare as if the summit is happening in order to be prepared.
Obviously the letter Trump sent Kim wasn't a deal breaker as many suggested. It seems to have been part of a larger plan by the Administration to set the tone, stay on the offensive, and remain in control. Kim was chastised, and in his own way it appears that Kim has apologized and asked for a second chance.
The whole back and forth was an important gambit to see how married North Korea is to making something happen. Kim threatened to cancel. So Donald Trump did. Kim didn't get the reaction he wanted. Trump did. It would appear that Kim needs this more than Trump needs this. Understanding this is an extremely important part of any negotiation.

U.S. Officials Cross Into North Korea

“A team of U.S. officials crossed into North Korea on Sunday for talks to prepare for a summit between President Trump and Kim Un, as both sides press ahead with arrangements despite the question marks hanging over the meeting,” the Washington Post reports.
New York Times:
“In a sign of just how important the summit is to Mr. Kim, he held an unexpected meeting on Saturday with President Moon Jae-in of South Korea, where he expressed a ‘fixed will’ to try to salvage it.
“The measured response to the cancellation, and the extraordinary diplomatic scramble that followed, was a strong reminder, analysts said, that Mr. Kim not only wants a diplomatic deal with the United States. He may need one.”

HE MAY NEED ONE.
Sounds like he may be desperate to finally improve the life of his people.
If that's the case, it shows sanctions have worked.
And if that's the case, Trump will have to blunder very badly to screw this one up.
don't look now pederast, but trump just got another american hostage released. this time from venezuela.
yet another thing that 0linsky couldn't manage to get done.
Thanks James...
For posting an article that completely agrees with my point!
The only difference is that the NY Times isn't willing to give Trump credit for figuring it out, and using it to his (and America's) advantage.
MAGA
For a long time now the USA position has been to hang tough with N. Korea. I would gladly welcome that paying off finally.

NYT: White House official says Trump is wrong, 6/12 is impossible.
Trump: That’s a fake quote, no actual source said it.
NYT: Ok, nobody said it, but there is a real source, we just botched what he said.
MSM: WHY IS TRUMP SUCH A LIAR!!!
Hey this may actually happen if we keep Obama and Kerry away from this
Things looking up !!!
Oh, and maybe Pelosi can then have her giggle fit
There isn't a lot to make Trump haters happy today.
For the rest of America, an American came home after being held hostage in Venezuela."
Did Trump send $150 Billion in cash?

Note what she is saying, IF things go well in the Noko Talks we are to thank The Lost Years cool azz pres.

Hopefully they will learn from that experience.
