Trump rolls the dice with big foreign policy week

President Trump drew rare praise this week from across the ideological spectrum for a trio of foreign policy moves: his return of three American hostages from North Korea, withdrawal from the controversial nuclear deal with Iran, and decision to hold talks with Kim Jong Un in Singapore next month.

The president has spent nearly a year fending off critics’ complaints about his temperament and nontraditional diplomacy, dating back to last August when he threatened to unleash “fire and fury” threat against the Kim regime amid heightened tensions with Pyongyang.
