Sometimes when you're right, you wish you weren't.
Exactly one month ago today – April 24, 2018 – I wrote to my Private Briefing subscribers warning them that the North Korea "supreme leader" was more like a "capo" from "Goodfellas." In other words, a mobster or thug who operated as if the rules didn't apply to him.
And that, to me, made it highly unlikely that a meaningful agreement, let alone a workable denuclearization program, would ever come to pass.
And I was right.
Just look at what happened today.
