Honorable?

Kim is not.

There's a saying: "Only Nixon could have gone to China."

I don't feel Trump is a perfect man. I don't think he's a particularly "bad man" either.

Maybe some Firefly?

This is very relevant.
Obama and just about every Potus before him failed badly in their negotiations with Best Korea.
They all used the kid-gloves and treated Kim like a snowflake, as Kim demanded.

Many people pointed out that Kim was acting like a poorly trained car salesman and someone should just bargain hard with him.
Trump did just that, and it worked. Past leaders have tried to negotiate after getting on their knees first. That doesn't work.
Only a brash, bold, and arrogant leader could have done it.
