The last time a feeble leader of a fading nation came bearing “Peace in our time,” a pugnacious controversial right-winger retorted, “You were given the choice between war and dishonor. You chose dishonor, and you will have war.” That right-winger went on to lead the United Kingdom against Hitler.
The latest worthless agreement with a murderous dictatorship is being brandished by Donald Trump, a man who instinctively seeks out dishonor the way a pig roots for truffles.
Donald Trump has betrayed his nation so often that now, the act of reporting such travails seem almost trivial. In 2016 his son, Donald Trump Jr., met with Kremlin-linked Russians at Trump Tower to discuss obtaining “dirt” on Hilary Clinton. In 2018 his Vice President, Mike Pence, met with the representatives of the North Korean enemy in PeyongChang during the 2018 Winter Olympics.
This week, Mr. Trump himself traveled to Singapore Summit to salute a North Korean general, shake dictator Kim Jong Un’s oily hand, and disrespected American veterans who were murdered by his new friends in the Korean War by smearing joint US-South Korea military exercises as “War Games” and “Provocative.” Oh, and the American and DPRK flags — one a symbol of towering freedom, the other a symbol of despotism — were touching on the summit stage. Disgusting.
Even before being elected, Trump was already spewing North Korean propaganda on the campaign trail.
Trump revolted even conservatives with his gushing over dictators like Kim Jong Un. Now he’s playing the useful idiot for Un’s bosses in Moscow.
For almost fifty years, Donald Trump has been selling out American interests to the enemy. North Korea is his biggest success. The dirty North Korea nuke deal is the culmination of his life’s many treasons.
It turns America from an opponent of North Korea’s expansionism, terrorism and nuclear weapons program into a key supporter. The international coalition built to stop DPRK nukes will instead protect its program.
And none of this would have happened without Trump.
Throughout the process leading up to the farce in Singapore, Trumpists chanted, “No deal is better than a bad deal.” But their deal isn’t just bad. It’s treason.
Trump isn’t Chamberlain. He doesn’t mean well. John Bolton isn’t making honest mistakes. They negotiated ineptly with North Korea because they are throwing the game. They meant for America to lose all along.
The real traitor was always in the White House. And it’s time we called his foreign policy what it is.
Treason.
