Given the trajectory of President Trump\u2019s foreign policy since last year there was little hope of significant movement at this year\u2019s summit with North Korea.<\/p>\n

Since that first, historic meeting last year in Singapore, Trump\u2019s foreign policy team has become the exact opposite of what that meeting symbolized.<\/p>\n
