The Singapore summit meeting between President Trump and Kim Jung Un is over. It seems as if the road to the denuclearization of Korea is open and that we have made a good start toward that goal. That's a good thing for the USA. That's a good thing for Korea and Japan. That's a good thing for the world. One could question or nitpick the tactics or the language used by President Trump, but it's hard to question the outcome. So what is the loony left saying? Here's the headline in the Washington Post in a column by E.J.Dionne: "There's No Defending Trump's N. Korea Performance". According to one of the WaPo's house leftists, Trump's actions were so bad that it's beyond debate; no one can even defend them.
I wonder if the Democrats and the media elites who live in the DC bubble realize just how crazy articles like this make them look. Americans understand the basic facts: there was a real chance of nuclear war with North Korea prior to the summit and the diplomacy that led up to it; that chance of war has now been greatly reduced. It's truly hard to call that a "failure". In fact, the very idea that the left tries to paint this summit as a failure demonstrates only that they hate President Trump so much that they can't accept something great that happens for the USA if Trump gets any credit for it.
These are not people that a sane person wants running the country.
