WASHINGTON (AP) — The first inkling that something big was afoot on North Korea came from President Donald Trump himself: He popped his head into the White House briefing room late Thursday afternoon to tease a “major statement” coming soon — from South Korean officials.

Then ABC reporter Jon Karl ran into Trump in a West Wing hallway and the president let out a little more string. Asked if the announcement was about talks with North Korea, Trump offered: “It’s almost beyond that. Hopefully, you will give me credit.”

..... Ya ..... The MSM, Anti-Trumper movement continually insist that this duly elected President of the United States is an insane, mentally challenged moron ..... Yet these Mentally Challenged Morons themselves .... wait in angst and with bated breath ..... upon every word that the one they call the same speaks.

.... Then in due time .... After their hearing what the man said ..... Disrespectfully Label him as an absolute vapid Idiot .... Merely moments before he unveils yet another kept promise ...... which after hearing of it .... stand in dumbfounded, absolute amazement as to how he accomplished such a thing.

... And how did he do it ... they surmise? .... Well ........ Because he's an absolute Idiot of course.

.... Patience my friends .... Patience ....

I think what is really needed is the brilliant underling Obama NSC hack Ben Rhodes, who knows all about how to construct fictional “narratives” on foreign policy.

Suggestion: Hold this historic meeting on the deck of the USS Ronald Reagan, anchored in North Korea’s Wosan Bay. The Ronald Reagan would be the focal point of four US Navy carrier groups accompanying President Trump on this “goodwill” visit. The official welcoming ceremonies should also include a “surprise” low-level flyby by US Air Force B2 stealth bombers and F22 fighters.

Heck, reactivate the Iowa and send it along, too. She's been in those waters before - and nothing displays the flag like a battleship. She can take the USS Pueblo in tow for the voyage home.

I'm lovin' it. Especially how he makes all the DC swampthings look like total fools.

Jim Acosta's body language in that picture is hilarious. He looks like he wants to flap the wings of his camel-hair coat, lift off and fly away, except that he can't unglue his feet from the driveway.

Wait until the roly-poly boy king gets a good look at Melania. He will die of self-perceived inadequacy on the spot.

The morons who think PDJT will give up, do an Obama with cash and food, keep up! Work a little bit and get off your lazy butts...like, read Q or other sources which have told what has already occurred...that would be past tense for the Rio Linda crowd here. Oh, and the sky isn’t falling, either.

It’s very important to know just how this news arrived.

OOOOOOOO, spooky, in the dark, in the driveway.

Associated Press really needs help.

Fat chance of that.

“He popped his head into the White House briefing room”

IIRC, Fox said the same thing — that he stuck his head and maybe a foot into the room. I think this literally is true, because a photographer in the room took some video that was played (I think) on Laura’s show. Apparently the President NEVER goes into this room, so it was a first, and remarkable. At least that’s how I interpreted it.

“Those bastard just can’t allow themselves to say that Kim Jong Un was the one who is conceding.”

Right. Many months ago when a press critter asked if he’d ever agree to meet with Kim JU, he said he would.

CBS NEWS May 1, 2017, 1:56 PM:
Heading: “Trump says he would meet with North Korean leader under ‘right circumstances’”.

“President Donald Trump floated the possibility of meeting North Korean dictator Kim Jong Un in an interview with Bloomberg News on Monday.

“If it would be appropriate for me to meet with him, I would absolutely, I would be honored to do it,” Mr. Trump said. “If it’s under the, again, under the right circumstances. But I would do that.

“Most political people would never say that,” Mr. Trump added, “but I’m telling you under the right circumstances I would meet with him.”
