(PBS: Trump’s Takeover)
핵 실험 동결과 비핵화를 하겠다고 나서는 김정은의 정책 변화는 트럼프 정부가 중국과 협조 하여 북한에 가한
쌩숀이 많은 영향을 주었다고 할 수있다. 아마도 27일 남북 정상 회담에 이어 북미 정상 회담이 괄목 할만한 결과를
가져 온 다면 트럼프의 입지가 강화 될 것이다.
보수와 진보로 갈라져서 이념 논쟁에 치우 치는 워싱턴의 정치적 행태에 따르지 않고 백인들이 원하는 아젠다를
상하원의원들의 반대를 무릅쓰고 밀어 부치는 식으로 트럼프 반대파를 몰아 내어 공화당을 트럼프 당으로 만들고
있다. 공화당 소속 상하원의원 중 상당수가 오는 11월 중간 선거에 불출마를 선언 하고 있다. 많은 정치 전문가 들이
민주당이 다수당이 될 것이라고 예측 하고 있다. 아마도 선거 후에 트럼프 탄핵 문제도 본격적으로 도마에 오를 것으로로보인다.

Thank you for this presentation for our learning, Dr. Ohn.
I agree with your observation.
On the other hand, I hope and pray Good Lord chose Donald Trump
to deal with Kim of North Korea to solve the crisis in Korean Peninsula.
I don't believe Hilary would meet Kim as Donald is willing and is capable of
handling the crisis.
If Trump helps to bring peace to Korea during his first term, that alone may be
enough contribution to the world and makes his presidency notable from the historical
perspective.

Trump’s dealing with North Korea reminds me of Nixon’s opening China.
Ironically, the former is standing on the edge of the cliff because of Russian collusion,
the latter is on the bottom of the cliff besause of Watergate.
Regardless, Trump’s sanction was very successful largely due to China’s corperation.
China might have been frustrated with Kim’s relentless nuclear buildup to an extent
that she is on the same page with U.S..
Kim has been so squeezed by the sanction that the regime was threatened to be shaky.
At the same time, he felt that he has enough leverages, i.e. nuclear capability to deal
with U.S., China and South Korea.
I agree with you, Dr. Lee in that Trump is a good guy for Koreans, so far.
Thank you for your comment.

Time will tell.
Key of the meetings would be "money-economy" of denuclearizaiton -process,I predict.
Old dictum of Jim Carviille , "It's Economy stupid" would be the key factor,again, of upcoming negotiation
and S.Korea, US, Japan , China need to take out their pockebooks and start some hard calculations to achieve
CVI denuclearization of north Korea.
Hope South K , will not be the only deep pocket for this process.

Impact on South Korean economy of “Opening up North Korea” is enormous.
Natural resources; natural gas, timber from Siberia will flow to South Korea.
Land transportation of goods and services can be easily accomplished through
road and rail road to Manchuria and Siberia. Connecting rails to trans-Siberiain
rail road enables South Koreans to transport goods to Europe.
Perhaps, it is the beginning of forming new economic zone; Siberia, Manchuria,
Korean Peninsula and Japan, competing against other large economic powers.
"My way, or no way" attitude of the leader will hunt himself or herself.
President Park gynhae nominated her followers instead of following normal process
of primary election a year before the Choi scandal. Consequently the right wing party
lost its majority in the congress.
Trump fires the officials express the opinions against him and undermines representatives
and senators who are not giving the vote for him.
Dogmatism will not last long.
