Trump has gone out on a limb that Pyongyang definitely won't renew missile testing but now that it appears that they have... his response appears to be to just ignore it and continue to publicly flatter Kim Jong Un. I suspect you are right and he will just scapegoat Pompeo when kissing Kim's butt is no longer tenable.Trump Said He Would Tame Rogue Nations. Now They Are Challenging Him.
Mr. Trump’s problems with all three countries reveal a common pattern: taking an aggressive, maximalist position without a clear plan to carry it through, followed by a fundamental lack of consensus in the administration about whether the United States should be more interventionist or less.
The president’s own views are hardly set in stone. White House officials say this keeps enemies off balance, but it has the same effect among allies and within his administration.
As the policies on North Korea, Iran and Venezuela have failed to produce the outcomes he wants, Mr. Trump could end up blaming Mr. Bolton and Mr. Pompeo — both hawks who advocate aggressive postures that have less appeal to the president.
Any kind of confrontation whatsoever.
Who would ever think that Obama was a "narcissist who lectured?"I looked up Cameron/Obama. One alleged criticism I found from an aide (officially denied) was not that Cameron thought Obama was a "coward" but rather that he was a narcissist who lectured. Seems the opposite of what you say.
