Deals at Korea-US summit

WASHINGTON - It's time for a reality check on North Korea. No, I'm not suggesting we come to our senses about Kim Jong-un and his nuclear program and try to bludgeon him into “denuclearization.” We all know he's not giving up on the program on which he's staked the pride of his fiefdom and dynasty.
