Kim is so fucking cagey.

Step 1: Be all smiley and fun and positive, and agree to everything.

Step 2: Wait until foreign leaders start taking their celebratory laps and patting each other on the back.

Step 3: Cancel everything and take a step back.

NOW who owns the conversation, motherfuckers?

NOW who holds the reins?

NOW who is going to ask for everything AND the kitchen sink, and get it?

Trump (et al) outmaneuvered yet again.
