Trump Cut Seoul War Games from the Oval Office

In the Oval Office on Monday he explained that Kim Jong Un has always treated him with great respect, and that is why Sunday's order to substantially reduce Ulchi Freedom Shield with South Korea made sense to him as a gift to a man who understands him.

The three-billion-a-year protection check is a story he likes to tell in that room, except the only Trump-era paper was a one-year bump that never reached three billion and was already expired when Biden showed up, so there was nothing to rescind except the drills he just cut for Kim while Ulchi Freedom Shield was still on the calendar.
