Don’t get mad. Get E*TRADE.
>>> EARLIER TODAY PRESIDENT TRUMP TALKED ABOUT HIS GREAT
RELATIONSHIP WITH KIM JONG-UN.
THE PRESIDENT IS EAGERLY
ANTICIPATING THIS SUMMIT, BUT
THE PEOPLE AROUND HIM NOT SO
MUCH, THE HEADLINE OF POLITICO
SAY IT ALL THEY REPORT THE WORRY
IS THAT DONALD TRUMP, EAGER TO
DECLARE VICTORY COULD MAKE BIG
CONCESSIONS IN EXCHANGE FOR
EMPTY PROMISES.
EMPTY PROMISES. TRUMP OFFERED THIS SLIGHTLY
CONFUSING ANSWER WHEN ASKED
ABOUT WHAT MIGHT BE ON THE TABLE
FOR NEXT WEEK’S SUMMIT.
>> IS ST DROOP-- TROOPS ON THE T
>> OH YOU WANT TO ME TALK ABOUT
WHAT IS ON THE TABLE?
>> I DO.
>> I DO. >> I’M NOT GOING TO DO THAT.
>> WE HAVE GABBY HERE, SHE IS
FROM POLITICO.
FROM POLITICO. GENERAL, AS WE NOTE SOMETHING
YOU ALWAYS LIKE TO POINT OUT,
NORTH KOREA HAS FOR YEARS
DRAIFED BEINGDRAIFCRAVED
DRAIFED BEINGDRAIFCRAVED BEING RELEVANT.
BEING RELEVANT. THERE IS A REASON A U.S.
PRESIDENT HAS NEVER AGREED TO
MEET WITH THEM AND THEY’RE SO
WEAK THEY ARE MEETING IN ASIA
BECAUSE THEY FEAR THEY DON’T
HAVE AIRCRAFT THAT COULD MAKE IT
OTHER PLACES.
OTHER PLACES. I SPENT A LOT OF TIME AS AN ARMS
CONTROL NEGOTIATOR IN THE
INTERNATIONAL COMMUNITY DEALING
WITH NUCLEAR DEVICES, AND I HAVE
NEVER SEEN ANYTHING LIKE THIS.
HERE IS THE SITUATION RIGHT NOW.
THE NORTH KOREANS ARE STILL
MAKES MATERIAL, MANUFACTURING
INTERMEDIATE RANGE MISSILES.
WE BELIEVE THEIR RESEARCH
EFFORTS CONTINUE.
EFFORTS CONTINUE. MOON AESND SOUTH KOREA SAID LET’
TRADE WITH THEM.
THEY’RE LOOSENING THE CHICK CON
STRAITS AND THE PRESIDENT OF THE
UNITED STATES SAYS I’M IN LOVE
WITH HIM, THERE IS NO TIME
CONSTRAINTS ON THESE
DISCUSSIONS, AND THE PNEUMONIA
LAR THREAT IS GONE.
SO THE ABILITY TO GET THERE AND
USE COERCIVE CONSTRAINTS IS
BEING LOOSENED.
BEING LOOSENED. HE USED THE LANGUAGE THAT THE
NORTH KOREANS USE IS ESSENTIALLY
PROVOCATIVE.
PROVOCATIVE. IT IS HARD TO IMAGINE WHAT HE
THINKS IS COMING OUT OF THIS
OTHER THAN THE NORTH KOREANS
HAVE BEEN SELF DECLARED,
ACKNOWLEDGEDS WITH
ACKNOWLEDGEDS WITH ACKNOWLEDGED, AND RELEVANT ON
THE WORLD STAGE.
>> GABBY, THE PEOPLE YOU DEAL
WITH DURING THE DAY, KNOW THAT
WHAT THE GENERAL JUST SAID IS
CORRECT AND THEY KNOW THE ONLY
PERSON IN THE ENTIRE GOVERNMENT
WHO IS LIKELY TO KEEP THIS ARM
VIEW OF THIS KICK DAY TORICTATOR
THEIR BOSS.
THEIR BOSS. >> IT IS A PROBLEM.
THE PEOPLE THAT WERE PRIMARILY
INVOLVING HIM, THEY FEAR THAT HE
IS PREPARED TO MAKE A CONCESSION
THAT COULD DEEPLY DAMAGE
RELATIONS WITH OUR KEY ALLIES,
THAT THE PRESIDENT COULD DRAW
BACK TROOFS, HE COULD AGREE TO
SANCTIONS RELIEF, THINGS THEY
CONSIDER THAT HE MIGHT BE
WILLING TO MAKE WHEN HE SITS
DOWN WITH KIM JONG-UN.
AND THE OTHER PROBLEM IS THEY’RE
STARTING TO TAMP DOWN
EXPECTATIONS.
EXPECTATIONS. THE LAST SUMMIT WAS THAT WE
WOULD GET AN GREET FOR
VERIFIABLE, IRREVERSIBLE
VERIFIABLE, IRREVERSIBLE DENUCLEARIZATION.
DENUCLEARIZATION. IT IS A SIGNIFICANT CHANGE IN
NINE MONTHS TIME, AND I THINK IT
SPEAKS TO THE FACT THAT
PRESIDENT TRUMP’S ADVISORS LIKE
MIKE POMPEO, JON BOLTON ARE
MAKING SURE HE IS GOING IN
FEELING LIKE HE NEEDS TO OFFER
SOMETHING ELSE FOR VERY LITTLE
IN RETURN.
IN RETURN. >> THE PLTH FEEL PRESSURE TO
ANNOUNCE A WIN AND HAVE
SOMETHING TO JOINTLY POINT TO.
>> YEAH, I AGREE, ONE OF THE
MOST LIKELY OUTCOMES IS
DECLARING AN END TO THE STATE OF
WAR THAT WOULD GIVE THEM ARGUING
POINTS.
POINTS. ONE OF THE THREE AIMS THAT KIM
JONG-UN HAS.
JONG-UN HAS. REUNITE UNDER HIS MANDATE, GET
THE U.S.OUS OUT, I THINK THERE
IS TREMENDOUS UNEASINESS IN
THERE.
THERE. WE WON’T GET TRANSPARENCY OF THE
NUCLEAR PROGRAM.
NUCLEAR PROGRAM. THAT IS STEP ONE OF ANY
SUCCESSFUL NEGOTIATIONS, ARE ARE
THE NUKES, THE RESEARCH, AND
SECONDLY YOU HAVE TO FER IF I
THEY TOLD YOU THE TRUTH.
THAT WON’T COME OUT OF THIS
