I really wish that bill Clinton could have brokered a deal with china (right before NK got nukes) which would have done a two-pronged invasion with the assurances that China would control all of NK as a direct puppet state.

A Chinese direct puppet state would be far superior to the current situation.

Clinton planned to have a kind of thaw with NK (before they had nuke), maybe using Vietnam thaw model. Post 94 GOP killed the plan.

Well, that didn't work, but there's still time for a similar deal with China in regards to Taiwan.

This could have never happened because it would have meant sacrificing Seoul.
