Was that part of this deal? That they would in this specific amount of time? Weird since there are no specifics on the deal released.
NK made a statement saying that they had dismantled this site. Trump bots like cockgeese touted that as proof of a bigly deal. Of course the rational (unhinged leftists) issued caution, because NK had lied to the international community some 10,000 times before. Now, according to satellite imagery, NK has lied again.
So to recap, in exchange for: 1) immediately suspending all joint training between US and SK, with no notice to our allies (seriously, how hard would it be to at least give them a heads up); 2) backing down on "full and verifiable denuclearization," a phrase that has been rightly demanded by the past 5 administrations, to "work toward steps to denuclearize," a phrase so vague NK could do whatever they want and still be in compliance with any written agreement; 3) with zero way to verify whether NK is in compliance of any of this; 4) all while felating a dictator on the world stage with some of the poorest choice of language possible. For fucks sake, even if you think this was an awesome deal, did trump have to drone on about how swell a guy Kim is and how his people, millions of which have died due to malnutrition and forced labor, just adore him? How can an adult be so fucking tone deaf?
And in exchange for all of that, we got a promise from NK that they've already lied about.
The art of the fucking deal indeed.
