I've been wondering if Trump ended the "summit" early because he didn't enjoy the accommodations...

[Still In Wisconsin]

anyone else thinking along these lines? I mean, why else would he leave early without being able to bring home some sort of perceived "win?"

No, I think Vietnam is probably on Trump's list of "shithole countries" and he just wanted to go home. I mean, he can be back at Mar-a-Lago by dinnertime tomorrow this way.

[MontanaMama]

1. No McDonald's?

Maybe the humidity is effing with his hair-do.

[Still In Wisconsin]

10. Vietnam is WET this time of year.

So, yeah, maybe the weather was messing up the blonde ferret he wears on his melon.

[Yavin4]

13. According to the rules, he's not supposed to get it wet

Nor feed it after dark.

[MontanaMama]

14. Oh dear.

Too late...

17. Do you think we could get Mitt to hold him down and shave...

... his head? He has some experience in that area.

[MontanaMama]

22. To hell with Mitt...

Let’s do it ourselves!

[3catwoman3]

24. I'm in! Except we would have to get near enough to him...

...to actually touch him - Hazmat suits would be needed.

That hairstyle has always looked ridiculous and affected, especially that windswept long stuff that goes behind his ears. How disgusting must that look after being slept on, or when he takes a shower.

[MontanaMama]

36. Woohoo! I'm in too.

I’ll wear a hazmat suit and give him hell. Can you even imagine what that shit show looks like out of the shower??? Good gawd, I need a shower just thinking of it.

[3catwoman3]

37. I try not to picture it.

One of those "can't un-see it" things. Fortunately, neither of will ever be in a position to have to worry about the real thing. he is totally repellant, and a great argument for celibacy.

[brooklynite]

19. Actually, there was one about 1/2 mile from his hotel...

[MontanaMama]

23. It is definitely the humidity then.

[dawg day]

2. I heard he was going to stay up all night (day here- 12 hour timezone diff)

... and watch the Cohen testimony.

Now that Kim's spokesman is saying that Trump mis-represented the "offer", it kind of sounds like he just thought he better get back to his favorite toilet so he could tweet furiously.

Any surprise that all that foreign relations stuff wasn't actually important at all?

[womanofthehills]

3. This might be why - "complete disarray" over Cohen

BREAKING: A GOP lobbyist just told me @realDonaldTrump is in “complete disarray” and that he was “blindsided” by Cohen’s opening statement. Trump feels “betrayed” & is “absolutely furious.” Says Trump even wanted to fly back to US, and also didn’t know Cohen could bring evidence.

[FakeNoose]

8. Cohen's opening statement was published early in the day

We read it here on DU before Cohen gave it. I'm sure Chump could have gotten a copy if he'd wanted to.
Why did he feel the need to leave the country anyway? He was trying to create a diversion, but nobody paid any attention to poor widdle Chumpie.

[CincyDem]

11. Ahh...that would require him to read.

And to be sure, would you want to be the staffer reading it aloud to him ???

Not what I'd want on my "to do" list for the day.

[dewsgirl]

35. This is what I'm thinking, no one told him.

[Buns_of_Fire]

44. "Absolutely furious." Yawn. He gets "absolutely furious" at EVERYTHING.

One of his all-beef patties too dry? Absolutely furious. Couldn't remember which shoe goes on which foot? Absolutely furious. Too much suction during this morning's ass-kissing session? Absolutely furious.

He must be a real joy to be around.

[Croney]

4. I think he wanted to rush home and defend his honor against the singing fixer.

But his honor is nowhere to be found.

[3catwoman3]

16. Can't find what you never had.

Trump and honor are mutually exclusive.

[Dave Starsky]

5. The dog and pony show was a huge dud.

Cohen was done talking in front of Congress.

Nothing left to do but pack the clown tent and come home.

[AJT]

6. I think Kim ditched him, he just wanted to humiliate the US.

45 made it awfully easy to make the US look ridiculous.

[uponit7771]

12. Yep, including the elementary school chair Red Don sat in .. knees above his hips

[redstatebluegirl]

7. I think he was so fixated on Cohen he couldn't function.

[notdarkyet]

26. Agree.

[Fullduplexxx]

9. I believe trump wouldnt have left until he got his "win". Lil kim ended the meeting

And trump left sulking

[Wellstone ruled]

15. And,,,,, the news of

his Daughter and Son in Law meeting with MBS in Saudi Arabia the media. Got's to find 1 a spar Billion in order to buy those Apartment Buildings.

[Yo_Mama_Been_Loggin]

18. He didn't like kimchi

And Kim didn't like overcooked steak

[LastLiberal in PalmSprings]

32. His bone spurs started to act up.

[GeorgeGist]

20. Nope

Kimmy told him to take a hike!

[IcyPeas]

21. President Obama in Vietnam with Anthony Bourdain.....

imagine trump .......

?t=61

[Lefta Dissenter]

27. 😮

I miss them both so much!

[jcgoldie]

25. Putin is planning a Kim summit...

Maybe Kim told Trump, "This is a waste of my time I'm going over your head, let me talk to your boss!"

[mercuryblues]

28. I think Kim arranged it so his bed was too short

Goldielocks cair was too small, his porridge was too hot and his bed was too short.

[Arazi]

29. KJU walked out of the negotiations. That's why they ended

[llmart]

31. And that's the real reason.

Our media and Trump wants to make it look like he ended the meeting and the so-called negotiations. I guarantee you Kimmy boy told him to take a hike.

[Arazi]

33. North Korea held a news conference and laid out what happened

They wanted sanction relief in 5 (out of 11) specific areas of sanctions relief. In return they'd close Yongbyong, their largest and most visible nuclear facility (leaving 20 or so other sites intact).

Big ask.

But because #TraitorTrump didn't allow negotiators to finish the work beforehand - #Traitor thought he could just ride in there and force KJU - it all blew up. They had a starting point but #Traitor's stupid ignorance totally fucked it up. I'm sure KJU does think it's futile negotiating with this idiot now

[llmart]

34. Very true.

trumpie can kiss any more negotiations good bye.

His idiotic base voted for him because he had no experience in government and they thought that would be a good thing. They're as stupid as he is. This country is only becoming more vulnerable because of him.

What a horse's ass.

[former9thward]

40. You apparently have a desire to believe N.Korean propaganda.

Your fantasy.

[Arazi]

41. Snort. NK has their 1st ever press conference to rebut Traitor's version of events

Or we believe #Traitor....

I'm inclined to believe that NK came prepared to shut down 1 nuclear development site in exchange for some sanctions relief, and that Traitor came prepared to demand closure of all, or all sanctions remain in place.

That's exactly his style

[former9thward]

45. If he had accepted less he would have been denounced as a fool and sucker.

Let's be honest about that.

[former9thward]

39. Kim desperately wanted a deal.

You are not living in reality. N. Korea is starving under the sanctions and Kim is afraid the N. Koreans will have enough and kill him. I hope they do.

[Arazi]

42. Nah, KJU is a sociopath who doesn't give a shit about his people

He murdered his own family ffs.

KJU got another photo op as a global leader making the US grovel. Win win for him.

If he had to close Yongbyong, no problem, we now know there's at least 20 other sites. Sanctions relief would have been fine but KJU is eating very well obviously which is all that matters to him. The North Koreans are living under a cult of personality. They will never revolt

[shanny]

30. I think Kim Jong Il got what he wanted

--for nothing--fr the lame-ass negotiator in chief (legitimacy)--and bailed. Why spend more time with mango Mussolini in person?

[kskiska]

38. I read that there was a lunch planned

but he blew it off and just left.

[jcgoldie]

43. maybe it was raining
