Trump got played

North Korea Slams U.S. Talks As 'Regrettable' After Pompeo Called Them 'Productive'

https://www.npr.org/2018/07/07/626828951/north-korea-slams-u-s-talks-as-regrettable-after-pompeo-called-them-productive

So, the conspiracy theory mind in me went a little Haywire with this one. What if, Russia totally manipulated this for their benefit a long time ago. They've been giving Aid to North Korea for some time, you obviously can't really pay them for these things, and then North Korea backs out of any talk with Trump, and Putin can come in and appear to be the savior.

Too easy a target

Warning: paywall

It seems too easy to blame these on north Korea. I get it that they have motive and desire, but considering their poor operational security it would not be too far fetched to think someone is framing things to look like them.
