Nice speculation.
Again, tweet from Christiane Amanpour:
South Korea’s Foreign Minister tells me in Seoul that “clearly credit goes to President Trump” for bringing North Korea to the negotiating table. “He’s been determined to come to grips with this from day one,” Kang Kyung-wha says.
And,
South Korea credits Trump for talks with North @CNNI https://cnn.it/2r58XMe

I know it’s hard for some liberals (not all - just the ones who are filled with hate). How does one react to a possible peace between the North and the South? Do you rejoice because the possibility of a nuclear attack from the North has dramatically lessened even though Trump is being credited with this good news? Or, are you secretly angry that this has occurred because of your hate for Trump? Or, do you pick door number 3 and rejoice, but not credit Trump at all, even though South Korea is crediting him? Quite a quandary.
One good thing doesn’t compensate for everything else he has done poorly. It isn’t a quandary. He is the biggest loser ever to be President. If there is a prize for that he should absolutely win!! But you keep on supporting the moron. You do you.![]()

Of course President Trump was at his very best behavior. President Trump -- for the most part -- sucks up to the very powerful, the very influential, and the very richest persons. Just ask "LVMH Chairman Bernard Arnault, media mogul Rupert Murdoch, Blackstone CEO Steve Schwarzman, leveraged-buyout tycoon Henry Kravis, Fedex founder Fred Smith, and Carlyle co-founder David Rubenstein." (See today's Bloomberg article, "Guests worth $120 Billion Eat With Trump at First State Dinner".)
It is part of Donald Trump's long-term, personal strategy to elevate himself, his brand, his businesses, and his family (in that order) by associating himself with those whose groups he has always wanted to be a part of, but never has been, until now. I call it "Ingratiation and Elevation by Association"). Being U.S. President, no matter how personally reprehensible a person you may be (e.g., stoking racial and ethnic hatred or conflict for personal profit), will earn you much acceptance and many "friends", French President Emmanuel Macron among them. And even if President Trump suspects that most of these men
(and women) secretly roll their eyes behind his back, their immense power and wealth are irresistable aphrodisiacs for him. Even then, President Trump could not resist trying to diminish Macron, or put him in his place, with l'affair dandruff.
The only exception to President Trump's generally fawning obsequiousness to the most powerful and the very richest, is his treatment of those among that elite group who are actually willing to call President Trump out and take him to task. In that case, Trump will vindictively and coarsely attempt to use the "Bully" pulpit of the American President to harass them, economically harm them, and bring them down. Just look to Jeff Bezos for an example of this treatment.
Everyone else, a group in which I include such luminaries as Attorney General Jeff Sessions, former Secretary of State Rex Tillerson, or former National Economic Advisor Gary Cohn, is treated by President Trump only in direct measure of his personal use for you at the time, paired with your willingness to be completely loyal to him. If President Trump no longer needs you, and/or if you fail to be blindly loyal to him, then Trump will.discard and bury you like last week's trash in a landfill. I have never seen such a level of insecurity, pettiness, anger, vindictiveness, (or alternatively, obsequiousness and fawning to the very elite) in a U.S. President before, and hope to God I never see such again.
Trump is trying to do to Bezos and Amazon now, what he did to the NFL owners and the NFL last season.
