Schiff questions if North Korea tried to 'flatter' Trump
By Tal Axelrod - 02/09/19 12:37 PM EST

House Intelligence Committee Chairman Rep. Adam Schiff (D-Calif.) questioned on Saturday if North Korea had tried to influence President Trump by flattering him ahead of a second summit set for later this month.

"All countries do psychological profiles of other foreign leaders to determine how they can be manipulated. North Korea may have determined that if they flatter Trump, they can achieve normalization of relations and easing of sanctions without denuclearization," Schiff tweeted Saturday. "That’s dangerous."

If you ask the average leftist what it is they hate about Trump they'll likely tell you its his childish invective. Yet it seems they think playground insults will carry them to victory in 2020.

Too damn few effective voices from the political right IMO.

Except Trump of course.

The hope is he'll inspire others, ala Lindsey Graham.   :0001:

Donny little fingers just tweeted this gem:

North Korea, under the leadership of Kim Jong Un, will become a great Economic Powerhouse. He may surprise some but he won’t surprise me, because I have gotten to know him & fully understand how capable he is. North Korea will become a different kind of Rocket - an Economic one!
