There is a good chance President Donald Trump will walk out of his meeting with Kim Jong Un as part of his negotiating strategy with the North Korean strongman, Jed Babbin, the former deputy undersecretary of defense, told Newsmax TV on Monday.
"I have a sneaking suspicion – actually its more of a hope than a suspicion – that the president is looking favorably on the idea of walking out," Babbin, who served under President George H.W. Bush, told "America Talks Live."
"He may have set this whole thing up with the idea that he wants to walk out . . . The president is a lot of things, but he's not dumb . . . Quite frankly, [a walkout is] about the best thing we could hope for."

Babbin also said he was not expecting "magic" or a definitive deal to come out of the historic Singapore summit on the denuclearization of the Korean peninsula.
