Every time, *EVERY* time there is a new President, including Trump, NK starts another round of dangling a carrot or waving a stick which will ultimately come to nothing.
There were a series of documentaries on The History Channel here the other week, from their struggle for independence from Japan to the present day. Very interesting and worth seeking out if the subject interests you.
One of the things it mentioned is that over the years there is a cycle from the US politicians. Each and every one maintains that a strong approach should be taken and NK told to behave in threatening terms.
Then, as the politician gets into power and a position to do something about it, they are confronted with the reality of challenging an unbalanced and vengeful head of a Nuclear nation.
Kind of what many must have felt facing Trump, I guess.
