The rockets and bluster stopped because Trump caved and gave them everything they wanted.
There were 12 missile launches or attempted launches during Obama's 8 years in office.
There have been 16 launches or attempted launches during Trump's 2 years in office.

Wait so you are saying Lectro is spreading misinformation?

The initial Summit was a one day affair..a symbolic drive-by to get the process moving. Obviously it is a complex situation decades in the making. For his part,Trump deferred to liberal President Moon of South Korea. Moon told the President that before any progress could be made on denuclearization,South and North Korea had to first work on inter-Korean-reconciliation.To achieve this Moon would have to keep Washington hard-liners at bay.So far,Trump has held up his end of their agreement.Moon wanted a lessening of sanctions.The President declined but gave on the time Moon said was “crucial to success”.
With the arrangement,made at the “aspirational” first summit,Moon and Kim have had three very symbolic and cordial (even friendly) summits. These events were greeted with cautious hope by the SK and Japanese populations.Talks of officially ending the Korean War were begun during Moon’s attempt at detente.It has included initial discussions of reconnecting railways and roads crossing the border.
U.S. special envoy,Stephen Biegun has been ironing out logistics and there is hope that China’s Xi will join the summit for a formal ceremony marking the end of the Korean War.
unhinged lubes can’t learn.
Success of the Summit will likely depend upon these stipulations:
“One potential deal could see North Korea agreeing to dismantle key parts of its Nyongbyon nuclear complex, freeze its nuclear program and allow in inspectors in exchange for the United States granting sanctions exemptions for inter-Korean activities at Kaesong and Diamond Mountain, said Koh Yu-hwan, a North Korea expert at Seoul's Dongguk University.”
* it’s going to be a tough gig..according to Gallup,45% of South Koreans are skeptical of Kim’s trustworthiness.We will see.
