One man’s “regrettable” must be another man’s “productive.”<\/p>\n

North Korean despot Kim Jong Un described his talks with U.S. Secretary of State Mike Pompeo as “regrettable.”<\/p>\n

Oh, but Pompeo had earlier called the talks “productive.”<\/p>\n

Pompeo has traveled to Pyongyang<\/a> to visit with North Korea’s “Dear Liar” after word leaked out that Kim Jong Un was secretly building up his nuclear weapons program after promising to “work toward” getting rid of it.<\/p>\n

Are we careening back to Square One with North Korea and its tyrannical leader, the guy Donald J. Trump Sr. described as trustworthy, a “strong leader” and someone who “loves” the people he allows to starve to death while he builds up his military machine?<\/p>\n

My only conclusion from afar is that one side’s definition of “productive” is seen as “regrettable” by the other side.<\/p>\n

Pathetic.<\/p>\n\n
