Abstract

Let me be very clear. I am not a fan of Donald Trump, did not vote for him and have been utterly disgusted with all the decisions he’s made to date excepting – perhaps – his decision to initiate a dialogue with North Korea.

Trump is a tempestuous, narcissist, misogynist, bigoted, racist, self-centered man-child who perceives the United States as his personal casino, his allies as underlings, and the Global South as serfs. The fickle playground bully has gone into an unpredictable overdrive North Korea chess game with characteristic bombast and visceral emotions.

I have no problem with the ongoing meetings and discussions to denuclearize the Korean Peninsula, and I am going to withhold judgement until the confetti of this on-again off-again drama settles down.
