What's this?

One of my favorite "Fox flops" was watching them rail about Obama in 2012

leaving open the possibility of meeting with Lil' Kim WITHOUT PRECONDITIONS!!! Are you kidding me? Oh the angst. Oh the outrage. Then fast forward to Trump's meeting with him after his harsh words for the little Rocket Man over NK's ICBM threats, following up with his press conference where he says Kim didn't know anything about Warmbier's capture, and his outpouring of "love" for the dictator, and you'd find out from Fox that Trump was the greatest diplomat in the history of the world!

Those talks, one of the few things I approved of, sadly and perhaps predictably, went nowhere and now Lil' Kim as sabre-rattling again to get the attention he craves. We need the hard work of sustained policy with NK rather than stunts.
