1-I should really have done this a few days ago, but better late than never, right?

Keep this in mind when people tell you how evil you are for being a #Trump Supporter, how #SarahSanders shouldn't be allowed to dine with her family due to her political views.
2-Let's talk about Nathan Larson and his political views. Mr. Larson runs for public office in the US State of Virginia, and apparently has been doing so since 2008 (with little results) under #Libertarian Party & currently #Independent Party
3-Mr. Larson just happened to have served a 14 month jail term due to an act of ‘civil disobedience’, which in this particular case, means threatening to kill the president (#Bush, at the time), but seems #Obama would have done as well

1/ So after a bit of searching I managed to find the joint #TrumpKim declaration. Here's my take:

Nothing terrible happened so that's good. Though as I've argued here, the damage was probably already done when we agreed to a "summit". affiliatenetwork.navisioglobal.com/2018/06/korean…
2/ There were four points I will discuss out of order:

First: Commitment to repatriate POW/MIA remains --> Great!
3/ Secondly, the #TrumpKim Joint Declaration also agreed to build a "stable peace regime" on the Korean Peninsula.

No idea what that means but ok that sounds good. At least now it's back in the hands of professional diplomats and generals.
