All about leadership and sending out the right message.

You couldn't be more wrong. You don't give summits to countries classed as enemies without getting something first. ANy meeting the US holds with NK, only boosts KJU's standing.
They've given up absolutely nothing for this; the testing site they are talking about was in the process of falling apart and as such wasn't going to be used again, and they already have nuclear weapons, so they don't need to continue the program.
They haven't promised denuclearisation, they've just put their program on hold because it's already produced the results it needed.
You don't reward bad behaviour; all they've done now is sent a signal to the world that if you go nuclear then you get the states to the table.
It's the opposite of strength, it shows desperation and weakness.
