Oh, yeh?

U.S. intelligence officials, citing newly obtained evidence, have concluded that North Korea does not intend to fully surrender its nuclear stockpile, and instead is considering ways to conceal the number of weapons it has and secret production facilities, according to U.S. officials.

The evidence, collected in the wake of the June 12 summit in Singapore, points to preparations to deceive the United States about the number of nuclear warheads in North Korea’s arsenal as well as the existence of undisclosed facilities used to make fissile material for nuclear bombs, the officials said.

The findings support a new, previously undisclosed Defense Intelligence Agency estimate that North Korea is unlikely to denuclearize.

The assessment stands in stark contrast to President Trump’s exuberant comments following the summit, when he declared on Twitter that “there is no longer a nuclear threat” from North Korea. At a recent rally, he also said he had “great success’’ with Pyongyang.

North Korea calls talks with Pompeo "regrettable" after he said "progress" was made

Same old Kim. Only difference is the Clown Resident telling the world he “solved” the issue this time. The Fart of the Deal.

Par for the course for the Trump University Doctrine. A con but this time it was trying to fool the world instead of trying to steal tuition money from prospective students.

The only thing going for North Korea is their nuclear armaments.
Expecting them give them up especially when China and Russia have their backs is indeed asinine. Instead of America, Trump just made DPRK great again. What an ass.

And now Pompeo is pushing back on NorKorea's assessment of his latest visit by claiming consensus at the Security Council. Really? Your boss did a solo and came back empty, too late to invoke the Security Council now.

Lil Kim got what he wanted, a photo-op on equal footing on the world stage. China has now opened up trade with NorKorea and could care less what the US does. Any and all security Council resolutions will thrown out of the window permanently and no new ones will be enacted anytime soon.
The Trump administration got nothing other than the US losing its prestige in Asia.

Pompeo pushes back against North Korea’s ‘gangster-like’ criticism

Trump did not solve the North Korea problem in Singapore — in fact, the threat has only grown
North Korea's recent actions call into question the underlying assumption of Trump’s engagement with Kim Jong Un in the first place.

Hey, Trumpkins. Your Dear Leader is a dangerous fool.

In North Korea, Missile Bases Suggest a Great Deception

https://www.nytimes.com/2018/11/12/u...ile-bases.html

Quote:
WASHINGTON — North Korea is moving ahead with its ballistic missile program at 16 hidden bases that have been identified in new commercial satellite images, a network long known to American intelligence agencies but left undiscussed as President Trump claims to have neutralized the North’s nuclear threat.

The satellite images suggest that the North has been engaged in a great deception: It has offered to dismantle a major launching site — a step it began, then halted — while continuing to make improvements at more than a dozen others that would bolster launches of conventional and nuclear warheads.

The existence of the ballistic missile bases, which North Korea has never acknowledged, contradicts Mr. Trump’s assertion that his landmark diplomacy is leading to the elimination of a nuclear and missile program that the North had warned could devastate the United States.
Not just lies, but extremely dangerous lies from Donny. Treasonous lies.
