Danny Bateman Posted February 21, 2019 Share Posted February 21, 2019 This is pretty niche but could potentially have big implications on our relationship with Israel. Particularly if Netanyahu does get indicted during elections, as he's been under investigation for various corrupt offenses. The State Prosecutor's office actually recommended their AG indict him in December and he's apparently working on the case. Link to comment

Interesting. To play devil’s advocate, if we got them to drop their tariffs without us dropping ours, that would be a win. I have many doubts as to whether that will happen, though. 2 Link to comment

knapplc Posted February 28, 2019 Share Posted February 28, 2019 This idiot gave up exercises with our staunch ally & trading partner, South Korea, all to appease North Korea, and Kim still gets to keep his nukes. You've got to be effing kidding me. 1 Link to comment

I'm late to this discussion but that was my thought as well. Me thinks Trump is buttering the bread to help his brand once he gets out of office. Link to comment

That is why we hired you to keep an eye on Trump over there Seriously, this is the week Trump's admin begins a serious downward spiral. We have the very potential "John Dean" moment yesterday wt Cohen and now Mr Art of the Deal is shown to be a failure in his most high profile, high stakes deal yet. Kim is playing him Trump is all about headlines, Kim is about long term goals. Trump is denied his splash headline, Kim keeps marching down the road of his preset goals - to maintain his nuclear deterrent. From the article: Quote The decision to drop, for now, a significant component of a potential nuclear deal suggests a reality that U.S. intelligence assessments have stressed for months is shaping talks as they progress: North Korea does not intend to fully denuclearize, which is the goal Trump set for his talks with Kim. Disclosure of a full, verifiable declaration of North Korea’s programs is the issue over which the last round of serious negotiations between Pyongyang and world powers, including the U.S., fell apart a decade ago.

Yes, the convicted felon, who lied to congress and who was a mafia enforcer - is indeed the most trustworthy of all of these (more so than a few GOP members of that committee who heard said felon but now repentant felon testify - at least I think he was repentant. You don't give the mafia boss the finger unless you are pretty sure of your new commitments). 3 Link to comment
