There is absolutely nothing in the "agreement" that agrees to anything, there are no standards, no timetables, no inspections, no nothing...and certainly no more likelihood of peace today than there was a week ago or ten years ago.

North Korea makes a habit of just saying one thing and doing another, and Trump has a habit of believing it if it comes in the form of a compliment to his giant insecurity/ego...so we will see.

Those who think anything historic or interesting has happened yet have literally been under a rock for the last 30 years...walk it back, a lot.

Fish on...

Todd, I rarely bet, but if you want to get that hundy back from the POTUS election, I'll go another hundy on the R's retaining the House. Let me know.
