Jeffrey spent the past week making Singapore Slings but it didn't help dull the pain.   The conversation then turned to the summit and ended with a conversation about the sustainability of summits without substance and what the two sides can do in the future to settle on an actual agenda for talks.   Jeffrey and Aaron commiserate over the complete goat rodeo that played out, including the Joint Statement, Trump's wild presser, and KCNA's excellent trolling of John Bolton.     Links of Note:   Full text of the joint statement between Donald Trump and Kim Jong Un.   The weird movie that the U.S. team showed the DPRK team and the on-site journalists.
Kim Jong Un shaking John Bolton's hand on KCNA.   AFP: "Kim says denuclearisation dependent on ceasing antagonism, says KCNA."   Scott wrote an article over at the blog about the "missile engine test stand." Dave Schmerler also wrote a twitter thread on it.   Support us over at Patreon.com/acwpodcast!
