HE MANUFACTURES OPPORTUNITY TO SUCCEED RATHER THAN PLANS A SPECIFIC SUCCESS.
(I know, because I do the same thing)
Kim wants legitimacy before his people. Trump wants an excuse to take severe action. The military can use that action to counter china. There are hundreds of issues at play here.
I have been in the business of negotiating business deals for most of my life – usually M&A in the low range. And trump’s method of negotiation is very transparent to me.
You just let everyone play their hand, and say anything that encourages people to take further exposure, then wait for opportunity to make use of that information, while suggesting that you’ll accept possibilities different from your central objective.
This makes it extremely hard for the opposition to rally and counter you, and ensures you have the maximum information at your disposal. This works when many people are fighting for your business, money, or approval.
And it means you do not have to pay them off or make a lot of puts in order to get the best deal. Moreover by giving them hope, and then drawing it out or letting them fail, they are weakened with their constituencies.
Most presidents and politicians do this under pretense. He just does it openly. Because the worst that happens is he gets to leave the white house which is a bit like slumming for him.
Meanwhile his base is more dedicated than any president in modern history.
He governs as does a king rather than the postmodern priesthood that’s been common since Johnson. And I am still not sure it’s a bad thing.Updated Mar 15, 2018, 12:59 PM

—“All money is someone’s debt backed by a promise to redeem the debt. When the money is issued by the state, then you have its vast assets backing its value and so liquidity is increased compared with individuals issuing currency. This is why the sovereign often appears on the currency.”—-
Nope. credit money might be. But commodity money is a store of value already produced. That is what separates commodity money (value stored), fiduciary media (value borrowed), and credit money (value promised), and fiat money – meaning shares in the economy (future value speculated upon).
You are using the term ‘money’ by cherry picking properties to suit your argument.
The diagram above lists the categories of money from commodity through trade credit. Money = commodity money.
Everything else is a substitute of decreasing liquidity of temporal value.
