James Clapper: Kim Jong Un Understands that Trump ‘Badly’ Wants a Deal of Some Sort

‘ ... and Kim Jong Un is going to play that like a fiddle’

EXCERPT:

BERMAN: "What message does it send to Kim Jong-Un, when the President seemed to diminish this test, which his own national security adviser says violates United Nations resolutions?" 
CLAPPER: "Well, it shows Kim Jong-un how badly President Trump wants a deal, and it also shows, encourages Kim Jong-Un, I think, to stretch the envelope further. He understands very well what President Trump wants, which is he badly wants a deal of some sort, and Kim Jong-Un is going to play that like a fiddle, I think. And I don’t believe the North Koreans are ever going to denuclearize. Why should they?"
