Cool photo op, though. I’m sure Kim will return, insult the dotard, and continue doing exactly what Kim wants to do. Yay America.
you prefer the Obama approach? just ignore the problem.... and leave a mess for someone else to clean up?

It's better they talk, and hopefully make progress to unify the peninsula than lob insults, threats or worse. It is obvious some Leftists will not give Trump any credit for anything even when he is doing potentially significant things for world peace.

No dictator worth his salt would ever attack his biggest fan and understudy. Trump was never in any danger. He did it as a publicity stunt.

IMO that is no surprise. They have very similar personalities.

North Korea has never been a threat to start with. I support a president engaging all world leaders so I'm fine with him going there but little has changed.

And what Trumplings refuse to acknowledge is that the previous statement that NK was no longer a nuclear threat was pure BS, nothing else. Stepping across a border is typical PR flak, all style, no substance.

You are just being negative about Trump. Not surprised. Trump went from a Tweet to Kim to a SUMMIT with him in ONE DAY. To me that shows guts, and determination. Trump set himself up for the Media to KILL him if Kim refused, but the gamble paid off.

Maybe Kim will return to doing what he's done in the past, especially what he's done to past Presidents, but at least for most of the Trump Administration he hasn't been threatening nuclear war, and is talking positives.

Trump Derangement Syndrome. You hate the man so much, you are unable to give any credit.

Sorry, but what the heck are you talking about??!! As a retired Army Combat Arms Soldier that served in South Korea in the mid 1980s and fought in two wars, I'm glad that Trump did this since it lessens the chances of a shooting war.

It seems that the Far-Left is itching for a shooting war that they will refuse to fight in... So in that case, the Far-Left needs to lay down and chill out AND give peace a chance or man-up/woman-up and enlist in the Army or Marines as a Tanker or in the Infantry to be in the thick of it.

Seriously, the country is out of whack... The Right wants peace and the Left wants war... Something is seriously wrong since everybody assumed it was the other way around.

If this is not an impeachable offense, I don’t know what is.
