Trump agrees to meet with North Korea's Kim Jong Un, South Korea says
ABC and GMA via Yahoo ^ | March 8th, 2018 | JONATHAN KARL and JORDYN PHELPS,

President Donald Trump has agreed to meet with North Korean leader Kim Jong Un by this May, South Korea's national adviser announced at the White House Thursday evening. He had briefed the president on a message from Kim earlier in the day.

The South Korean envoy said that in his recent talks with Kim, the North Korean leader had expressed an eagerness to meet with Trump as soon as possible.

He said that Kim had said he was committed to denuclearization, suspending more missile tests, and had agreed that U.S.-South Korean joint military exercises the North objects to must continue.

The dramatic disclosure came after Trump told reporters Thursday afternoon to expect a major announcement from South Korea.

That word from the president comes after a South Korean delegation met with top national security officials at the White House complex earlier in the day.

After Trump ducked into the White House briefing room to tease the announcement, ABC News' Jonathan Karl ran into Trump himself who told Karl the announcement was going to be a big deal.

The important part: NO preconditions. No money, fuel, food... NOTHING for NK until a deal is reached.

Deal first, which is good.

Lol!

Rocket Man is just another lost boy that had a dysfunctional childhood with a absentee maniac for a father and grew up as a spoiled punk

With nuclear warheads and nerve gas to kill his brother and AA guns to shred his Uncle

Betcha Trump can give him a pep talk and help him man up

DJT is accomplishing more in his first year than any president in my lifetime, including Reagan.

There doesn’t have to be an agreement on anything. Trump is leading from a position of strength. We can walk away and continue sanctions. Evidently they are working to bring little Kimmy to the table.

On a lighter note, it would appear that Kim’s barber has been playing a lot of Minecraft.

Your post is unintelligible.

It's not to those who have kept up with Q's posts and the pictures.

I understand your skepticism of Q, but a wise man would read the info, look at the pictures, and then decide if it was true.

Ignoring what Q says makes you ignorant of any ensuing conversations about it, and that is why it seems unintelligible to you.

since Kim will just continue to run his country-sized concentration camp without outside interference.

He can do without 'outside interference', but he can't do without 'outside assistance' (import of goods).

NK will cheat and Trump won’t stand for it.

Already cheating. From two days ago:

The reactor at North Korea's Yongbyon nuclear complex continues to show signs of operation, suggesting that the country may be resuming the production of weapons-grade plutonium, a U.S. institute monitoring the site said Monday.

Steam vapor plumes were seen emanating from the 5 megawatt reactor facility and nearby river ice was melting, based on commercial satellite imagery from Feb. 25, the U.S.-Korea Institute of Johns Hopkins University said on its 38 North website.

Why is it that when FR posters make some kind of spelling or grammar mistake, they also do , at least, A DOUBLE POST ?

I notice patterns. I see this pattern quite often on FR. Odd.

Jim Cramer CNBC this morning was saying that Trump was going to get a Nobel Prize.

According to the South Korean President. Kim Jong Un, says that he will not test any more weapons and will talk about getting rid of all the weapons he has. And agrees that the US can protect the South.

So, now I am not sure what he wants. Normally he wants money and to have the sanctions raised. Of course we have been down this road before. And it does not pay off. So I am not sure what is different this time.

If he asks for money, I suggest that South Korea gives it to him, not the US.

Yep.

And for those wondering how the media can spin this to a negative...

“Kim is inviting Trump to demonstrate that his investment in nuclear and missile capabilities has forced the United States to treat him as an equal.”

The media: providing the village idiot views.

N. Korea has been run by bad actors for decades (think CIA).

Most of what we have been told about how the world is and who the good/bad guy are is total bull.

Looks like that is all going to change, God willing.

“So, now I am not sure what he wants.”

He wants a treaty and formal, public assurance the US will not destroy his country.

And that’s ALL he can hope for.

Except maybe WTO membership lol

They should have an arm wrestling contest to see who loses their nukes.
