Kim seems not to be so easy peasy as was hoped.

North Korea snubs US, skips meeting on returning soldier remains

Washington (CNN)North Korean officials did not show up to a planned meeting with US officials at the demilitarized zone Thursday, where they were expected to continue discussions on repatriating the remains of Americans k**led during the Korean War, a senior US official tells CNN.

There was no call or explanation from North Korean officials on why they skipped the meeting.
Secretary of State Mike Pompeo ignored a question about the apparent snub when asked by reporters traveling with him in Brussels on Thursday.
The development is likely to fuel growing skepticism over North Korea's commitment to a complete denuclearization of the Korean peninsula as promised during last month's meeting between President Donald Trump and Kim Jong Un in Singapore.
Trump has touted the return of remains as one of the successes of his historic June 12 summit with Kim in Singapore.
CNN reported last month that the Trump administration is expecting North Korea to return up to 200 sets of remains and that planning for the exchange has been underway. About 100 wooden t***sport cases were sent to the DMZ in recent weeks to prepare for receiving US troop remains.
Pompeo's North Korea meeting went 'as badly as it could have gone'
Pompeo's North Korea meeting went 'as badly as it could have gone'
But Thursday's no-show comes after Kim scuttled a rendezvous with Pompeo during his trip to Pyongyang.
Pompeo last week failed to demonstrate any progress on denuclearization talks, leading one source with knowledge of the discussions to say the White House felt it went "as badly as it could have gone.

You speak as if you believe folks thought this would be easy and quick. No one thinks that and no one is surprised by Kim's balking, to use the baseball term.

The game is on [/i]now,[/i] however, and he can't do that indefinitely.

Indeed it is..

the only one I heard say it was easy was trump..

I should add, as I was making this post, a live video was going on with a NK spokesperson going on about making meaningful progress and something about past comments are all in jest.

He mentioned the proposed "Rocket man" CD trump whats to give Kim.. he did not seem to think it was all so amusing..(the spokesman)

Is that really all you've got today, Goober ?

Trump just totally owned the NATO summit and left them smoking.

Now he's on his way to England to point out how they are total losers.

Croatia just spanked their butts and sent them home whimpering.

After he owns Great Britain he's off to hang out with Putin and brag about how he's got you lefties panties in a wad.

I'm sending you a T-shirt so you will remember your monkey king and his Obammycare gift to his freeloading Obammybots.

did you sleep in today?

We tossed the NATO thing most of the morning..

But I have to say the Croatia thing is more fun.. Hope they can dig up one more super game and grab the title..

They have had a lot of long OT and shootout games.. Will be a tough road for that little country..

What do suppose that secret meeting with Putin will be about? A new strategy to dodge the Mueller investigation??

Swell shirt.... Now I will have to be fair and look for one of equal substance to send your way..

That will be a challenge to match that thing..

Excellent idea! I'll send him these.

Trump is seeking advice from Putin on how we should o*******w Mexico and Canada.

Putin's experience in taking Crimea is valuable information.

I'm sure they will both laugh at how Obammy stood by like a bump on a log while Putin moved in and took what he wanted.

I'd like a T-shirt of this image.

He's supposed to say s**t like that! Do you want the job of bringing those dips**ts into line?

BigMike Loc: yerington nv

NATO is like The Money Pit. Fk the Europeans. They want to form a single European nation with a single European army anyway. What do they need us for?

archie bunker Loc: Texas

Go read their website. It's astonishing! NATO is a business, in business to take our money!

BigMike Loc: yerington nv

I don't wanna go there...it'll just piss me off...then I'll get depressed...then I'll get loaded...

Hey! I'll get loaded first! Then I'll go to the web site.

Good plan. I started looking at it at 1:30 this morning while waiting on a truck at work. It's bulls**t! Just like the UN. Both need to go! We've been footing the bill for too long! Just read the list of member nations, and tell me that many of them contribute to world security.

That is simply not fair archie, now he will never be pleased if I do find a worthy shirt for him...

I would not want the job for anything in the world..

Besides, I am far to empathy driven to be any kind of politician..
