So in a little while, we're going to get to President Trump in the fallout from the North Korean summit. President Trump has been tweeting some things, which are, in my opinion, not the smartest. But with that said, obviously,

it's a big public relations coup. Korean summit. President Trump has been tweeting some things, which are, in my opinion, not the

smartest. But with that said, obviously, he's a big public relations coup for the president.

The president had himself a hell of a day in the last couple of days. He had a hell of a 48 hours

going to Singapore and walking around with Kim and then getting all sorts of good media coverage for

it. His approval ratings are going to rise because of it. It's a very popular move. Even those of us who are skeptical like me are still obviously hopeful that President Trump ends up being right. And this wasn't a SOP to Kim for a photo op. And it actually ends up curbing Kim's nuclear ambitions. And, you know what? Why don't we just jump right into that? So President Trump this morning, he tweets out, quote, just landed. A long trip, but everybody can now feel much safer than the day I took office. There's no longer a nuclear threat from North Korea. Meeting with Kim Jong-un was an interesting and very positive experience. North Korea has great potential for the future. And listen, I think that if North Korea decides to integrate into the family of nations and liberalize and get rid of the nuclear weapons, there is a great potential for the future. For President Trump to say, preemptively, there's no longer a nuclear threat from North Korea is obviously untrue. There's not a single North Korean weapon that has been disarmed at this point. They have not destroyed any of their nuclear capacity. And this sort of preliminary triumphalism, I objected to it yesterday because I think that it boxes President Trump in. I think if President Trump wants to actually get something good out of North Korea, it is trust but verify, but you actually have to verify. And you can't trust that he's disarming. When he hasn't disarmed, he hasn't even set a timetable for disarming, the North Korean headlines, the one that they're putting out in North Korea suggests that Kim is telling his own people that the United States and North Korea have agreed to joint disarmament. What that technically means is that Kim Jong-un is claiming to his own people, the United States is going to disarm nuclearly alongside North Korea, which of course is totally insane and never going to happen. Trump also tweeted before taking office, people were assuming that we were going to war with North Korea. President Obama said that North Korea was our biggest and most dangerous problem. No longer. Sleep well tonight. Well, again, the sort of preliminary triumphalism, I think, is actually not useful and is pretty counterproductive. Because here's the thing. What President Trump did is he basically signed an advance against royalties. So when you're in the book industry, right, when you write a book, then publishers typically give you an advance and the advance is supposed to incentivize you to write the book and then you write the book and then you get royalties on the back end. But you don't immediately get the royalties. Instead, what happens is that you have to pay off your advance. If they advance you

$20,000 for an advance, you have to make $20,000 worth of royalties, and those go back to the publisher, and then you make whatever royalties are on top of that. Well, in negotiations, what President Trump effectively just did is he gave Kim Jong-un in advance against royalties. He said, listen, I'm going to give you preemptively, preliminarily,
