>>Not so much easy as it is sad. If nothing is going to change their minds then what's the point of trying Bill? I mean you'd THINK that implementing a policy to steal / kidnap children from their parents would be enough to wake the hell up - ya know a line that you just don't cross -- but for some it is not. Equally disturbing is that most republican voters actually agreed with this inhumane policy. Sort of tells you what the GOP in the Trump era has become Bill. HRC sort of had a point with her "Basket of deplorables" statement hmmm?

>As long as you are focusing on the emotional aspect of such heavy handed acts, which are still only a minor blip on the total number, Trump has reached a few of his goals by defining the territory of future discussion more to his favorite issues and keeping you off-balance.

Kidnapping children and babies from their parents is not a 'minor blip' which deserves no emotional responses. But aside from that obvious point -- where exactly are you gathering that there is some sort of 'emotional response' to begin with? That is just a cop out by you to disregard the most basic level of human decency - taking children from their parents. So rather than seeing the problem with that, you just respond with oooh don't be so emotional about it? Surely you are better than the 'Womp Womp': Corey Lewandowski yes???

>IMO a rather simple ploy, but it still seems to work for him. At least it gave him first page material with rocket man - in Trump eyes certainly an accomplishment. I reserve applause/judgement until a marked difference in behaviour accomplished by some treaties is seen, but at least had classified his earlier bad-mouthing probably better than all those already looking for shelter from NK ballistic radiation gifts.

>So those having opposite views/agendas should first look hard at their own hands at the poker table, should ponder what in their own history/strategies furthered such an opponent and think about game theory.

..and what did NK get out of that and what did the USA get out of that and did you see the images of their new nuke facility? Examine just how dumb all of this was for us and the end results. Don't get me wrong -- I'm all for dialogue and all -- need that before anything good can happen....but Trump is, to put it mildly, unqualified to be involved in such dialogue. It's part of the dictator's handbook -- align yourself with other dictators -- same thing he's done with Putin and others.
