The North and South were talking before Trump was even elected. Trump is just in the right place at the right time. If it happens, it would have happened with or without him.

I think Trump is mor elikely to fuck it up than he is likely to help it along.

"Only Nixon could go to China."
Bully for Nixon, but that doesn't mean he wasn't a "crook". It doesn't mean he wasn't an asshole. It doesn't mean he was a good president.
I ly HOPE Trump succeeds, but I highly doubt it.
I think he is being played for the fool he is. Going to meet with Kim is allowing Kim to appear powerful to his own people. He's flexed his muscles and now the President of the world's gest and baddest superpower is "bowing" to his will. He is getting the message that having nukes makes him "" and important. Trump is rewarding him for it. After calling him names (about the only trick in Trump's play book) and getting into a dick measuring contest with the guy (actually tweeting that he has a "ger button". Really! Trump did that!) does anyone believe Kim is going to be straight up with Trump? I think Kim has learned from the example of others, that heaping praise on Donald Trump, makes him putty in one's hand. And Trump, who claims to be the best negotiator the world has ever seen, is an ABSOLUTELY TERRIBLE negotiator! He's like a toddler, always throwing temper tantrums. He breaks his agreements and contracts, he refuses to pay his debts. He keeps saying lots of lawyers would LOVE to represent him, but there sure seems to be no one standing in line. That is probably due to his history of not paying his bills. It may also have something to do with how of a shithole Trump is in. Perhaps they don't think his case can be won. His name cannot be cleared (because he keeps broadcasting his own guilt, like "I was already going to fire him [Comey] even without the recommendation. I said to myself, 'You know, this Trump and Russia g? There is no Trump and Russia.....'..." (I might have not got his words exactly right, but you know what he said to Lestor Hultz. as well as I do.). He SAID, right out loud, that he fired Comey because of the Russia investigation. That is obstruction of justice right there! He's guilty, folks! And in the campaign, he spoke directly to Russia, and requested they try to hack American state secrets in order to benefit his campaign. He offered a promise of reward ("....I think our press will reward you mightily." ) Um, isn't that a quid pro quo? He colluded with Russia right in front of everyone's nose! How can we possibly need any more proof? Would you represent someone like that? I wouldn't!
Trump is a train wreck! To put it more eloquently, he is a Trumpster Fire. (I didn't make that up. It may even be trademarked.)
When Obama won a Nobel Peace Prize (2009) every one said he did not deserve it, because he had barely started his presidency, and had not done anything to deserve it yet. And ya'll are talking about awarding the prize to Trump because.... why now? He has not done anything yet. All the work was done by South Korea! Without them, Trump would never have been offered a seat at the table. All Trump has done is say "Yes, I'll go." Obama was hammered by Hillary in the 08 debates for suggesting he might meet with North Korea without "pre-condition." He got SCHOOLED! (But he still beat her in the primary, so maybe it was not such a scandalous thing to say after all.)
So, the point here is: Don't jump the gun! "Mr. Button" hasn't earned any praise yet, much less a Nobel! Let's all pray that, despite the odds against it, Trump pulls off a treaty and a denuclearization of North Korea. (Oh, right.... This is group of people that don't believe in prayer. LOL) When he actually accomplishes something good, THEN we can talk about it.....

Yes.
