Trump’s Handling Of North Korea Has Been One Of The Few Things Americans Liked About His Presidency

President Trump’s decision to cancel his planned summit with North Korean leader Kim Jong Un (for now) isn’t just a blow to a major policy goal of Trump’s (stopping North Korea’s nuclear program) or the president’s ego (his supporters were talking about Trump winning a Nobel Peace Prize). It could have a clear political downside too.

Polling shows that more Americans disapprove than approve of Trump’s handling of a whole host of issues. On immigration, trade and other policy areas, Trump gets net negative marks. But then there’s North Korea. CONT.
