What in the world made Trump think that he would do any better? Instead, he gave North Korea a place on the world stage.

What in the world makes anyone think that Kim wants to be like Vietnam? Kim's only goal is to stay in power.
NK entered the world stage when they started testing nuke-capable missiles successfully. So your problem is that Trump is even talking to Kim? And Kim has lived in the west, as I recall. Showing him South Korea, Vietnam, Singapore, yeah it influences him. You can tell by the smile on his face.
