Someone got played.

After the abrupt end to the Vietnam Summit between North Korean leader Kim Jong Un and President Donald Trump, people began to assess how things went. As the concessions are weighed, most see little of the Art of the Deal from Trump.

The President once again hyped his latest meeting with Kim, this time set in Hanoi, Vietnam.


The irony of Trump going to Vietnam after multiple deferments to avoid such a trip was lost on few. While Kim traveled to Hanoi by train facing little ridicule, the setting already put the United States President at a disadvantage in the public eye.

Point to Chairman Kim on this one.

People found plenty of other things that went Kim's way during the abbreviated tête-à-tête.

Others raised another potential byproduct of the summits with Kim.

After the last summit, annual large scale war games were canceled in South Korea. Now the Pentagon is expected to announce a scale back from the large spring exercise—known as Foal Eagle and Key Resolve—to smaller, more specific drills spaced out across the year.

Was this another concession made by Trump to Kim, like last year's cancellation of the joint exercise on South Korean soil? Or is it a brilliant cost-saving plan envisioned solely by Trump as the President is saying? Or is it all unrelated as Pentagon sources—who claimed they wanted to scale back the showy exercise for years due to high cost, low efficiency and ineffective results—state?

The lists of concessions tipped greatly in Kim's favor according to most observers.

But the President had a response for his critics.

Unfortunately for Trump, his critics had a response for him.

The White House has not specified if another summit is planned with North Korea.

Iranian state media and health officials said the strike occurred early Saturday morning in Minab, in the country’s southern Hormozgan Province. Journalists from international news organizations have not been granted access to independently verify the reported death toll or the circumstances surrounding the strike.

Model Accuses Fashion Brand Of Using AI To Recreate Her Looks For Ad Instead Of Hiring Her

There used to be laws in place for someone's likeness being used without their consent, and most certainly if their likeness was being used in an exploitative way for profit.

But now with the rise of AI-generated photographs, advertisements, and other digital products, the lines seem to have become muddied between the illegal stealing of someone's likeness and AI "inspiration."

TikToker Secretly Records Unhinged Spectrum Employee Screaming At Her For Trying To Cancel Her Service

Employees in commission-based positions are feeling increasingly pressured to acquire new clients, retain previous clients, and solve the issues their clients call in about with high satisfaction ratings.

Even though tensions are high, and the pressure they're feeling may be unrealistic for any one person to take, that doesn't give them the right to mistreat people who do not want to sign up or want to cancel.
