Looks like the Democrats are being as petty as usual - from The Hill:
Dems rip Trump concessions, 'embarrassing' rhetoric with Kim
Democrats are calling President Trump's praise of North Korean leader Kim Jong Un "embarrassing" while criticizing him for offering concessions in exchange of vague promises from Pyongyang.
“In his haste to reach an agreement, President Trump elevated North Korea to the level of the United States while preserving the regime’s status quo," House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) said in a scathing statement.
She said Trump had handed Kim concessions in return for “vague promises” and no “clear and comprehensive pathway to denuclearization and non-proliferation.”
Senate Minority Leader Charles Schumer (D-N.Y.) also ripped Trump, saying on the Senate floor that the U.S. has “legitimized a brutal dictator.”
“It is worrisome, very worrisome that this joint statement is so imprecise,” Schumer said. “What the U.S. has gained is vague and unverifiable at best. What North Korea has gained, however, is tangible and lasting ... We've legitimized a brutal dictator who's starved his own people," Schumer said.
The article continue citing other democratic Senators and Representatives. Disgusting. President Obama could have done this - brought North Korea to the negotiating table - but he did not have the leadership ability. When they don't get their way, they are pitiful.
