For once, Trump's attempt at counter-programming failed when the summit with Kim Jong Un broke up early with no agreement. It left the North Korea initiative -- on which Trump has played huge political capital -- in doubt.
The President's repeated insistence going in, for instance, that he was in "no rush" to get a deal may have undercut his own negotiating strategy.
Trump tried to play down the collapse of the summit, saying that Kim had agreed to maintain his halt to missile and nuclear tests.
"This wasn't a walk away like you get up and walk out," Trump told reporters of the end of the summit.
