From here on out the Nobel will be given on a participatory rather than merit basis. Every one involved in planning the summit gets one.

I’m sorry, TPM comment box, you’re probably going to nanny-nag me to leave a more descriptive/thoughtful comment, and you’re right. I have nothing productive to add.
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA, WHO COULD POSSIBLY HAVE PREDICTED, WHO KNEW NORTH KOREA WAS SO COMPLICATED

He just needs some time and space to think about things, man. It’ll work out. Best thing for you is to try not to think about it too much. (You poor sap. Be a man, for Christ’s sake.) Who among us has not said and thought this to and about some dumbass friend? Pathetic.

@Squirreltown posted this on another thread and I honestly thought it was satire! Maybe because the letter read like a joke?

Predictable.
Just heard on a podcast, “Does this mean we get our deposit back?”
Those goofy coins tRump had minted of himself with Kooky Kim are either worthless kitsch now or worth quite a bit as a collector’s item. I’m sure they’ll find their way being sold on some tRump re-election campaign site, either way.

In a won’t cut my nose off to spite my face kind of way, I really hoped he’d pull it off. I had zero expectation that he would, but still.

Dotard is very successful at making the US look more stupid, one day at a time.

Everyone does. If President Spray Tan can’t have one then nobody can.

Trump will be donating them to poor people in Africa, like losing Super Bowl and World Series teams do with their champions hats and shirts.
I bet Trump had NK summit hats made too.

He might decide to drop Pence and just go with Kim as his 2020 running mate. I say print more coins!

Obama essentially got his Nobel for not being George W. Bush. He is still not George W. Bush so he gets to keep it. In all probability, the next President of the United States will get a Nobel prize for not being Donald Trump.

Why is anyone surprised?
Trump was being played by China and North Korea because it is very clear the goal of China is to control the far Pacific. While Trump makes side deals on trade with China, the Trump negotiators can’t get their act together on tariffs and trade negotiations.
Kim Jong Un blows up an alleged nuke site for show while lashing out at Pence and Bolton. Kim and China look good and Trump cancels the summit while he wipes egg off his face.
This may actually be a good thing as Trump may realize that this shit is hard.
Oh well, there is always the commerative coin.
Once more, we see the real ‘Art of the Deal.’

Never underestimate the power of the grift to pull the suckers in.
His doting (dotarding?) fans will still buy the coins at a big markup.
