HANOI, Vietnam — Talks between U.S. President Donald Trump and North Korea's Kim Jong Un are wrapping up earlier than expected.

White House press secretary Sarah Sanders told reporters on Thursday that "negotiations are still ongoing" between the two delegations. Trump and Kim were scheduled to have lunch but did not enter the dining room where reporters were assembled.

Thank-you for your concern and kind responses!

I am aware our awesome President is always prepared to walk away from a negotiation (The Art of the Deal)

But I was not alone in expressing anger and sadness with the graphics of the Cohen debacle.....
.....and believe at some level it may have sent wrong messages to some people

After my tears and disappointment at 2:00AM, my distress compelled me to pray harder, and trust in God’s sovereignty

I hope it is a better deal that he made on immigration. He should have walked away from that one.

Let me assure that this “Michael Cohen” Democrat setup gig amounted to a 100% “Zero”. God help our USA if any of these Democrat idiots and morons every get in a position to really run this Government. I am not worried for one second....Trump will come out on top. We, the American people should praise our Lord, God Almighty & his only son, Jesus Christ for sending Trump our way!!!

Hang in there and think positive!!! SATAN sent us Obama & God has sent us, POTUS, Donald J. Trump!!!

“After my tears and disappointment at 2:00AM, my distress compelled me to pray harder, and trust in God’s sovereignty”

I was extremely distressed when it appeared prior to the 2012 election that Obama might beat Romney. I prayed for relief from the distress.

A voice from above said “Rise above it, God is in control and things are unfolding exactly as they are supposed to unfold.”

Immediately, I was lifted up in prayer and found peace. While the peace slips away occasionally and I must focus stronger on prayer, it has been with me ever since.

During a National Day of Prayer during the Civil War, a group of Methodist ministers said to Abraham Lincoln, “We pray that God is on our side.”

Lincoln replied, “That is not my concern. But that we are on God’s side is my concern.”

Very profound truth!!!

Jesus’s most important commandment, “Love God “ should include “Trust God.”

The Art of the Deal.. Laughter..

Says a nobody sitting on their butt typing on his computer. Trump told ya repeatedly, "It might work, it might not."

You clearly are not paying attention.

Joining you in steadfast prayer.

I was initially disappointed, but then had an overwhelming feeling of peace about it. Hubby was actually very pleased, right off the bat, upon hearing this early morning news.

The dems stab America in the back by their behavior when he was out of the country negotiating.

Yep, so much for Cummings saying he wanted to get back to normal, normal isn't having an opposing party undermine you with a meaningless hearing during negotiations - Cummings and Cohen both are liars.

Sounds like they hit a snag. Perhaps Kim thinks he has a bit more leverage right now and is messing up negotiations.

As some suggest, Trump made the trip mainly to shore up deals with Vietnam, and he figured while he’s there, he’d feel out Kim a bit.

The fact that there really was little build up for the meeting spoke volumes.

I would imagine elements of the CIA as well as the Democrat party have a back channel to the Nork undermining Trump’s poisiton...Perhaps Trump needs to come up with something to show the world that the Democrats do not control the White House like they would have everyone believe...

“No deal is better than a bad deal.”

Funny how the language works sometimes - your statement can have two opposite meanings! (I know which meaning you intended though, and I agree.)

As when she is good, she is good. And when she is bad, she is even better!

“As when she is good, she is good. And when she is bad, she is even better!”

That works too, but I was thinking of a different linguistic ambiguity based on the way we often use the phrase “Nothing is better than..” to indicate that something is the best.

So you could read “No deal is better than a bad deal” as “There is no deal better than a bad deal”, which would suggest that a bad deal was the best possible deal - the opposite of what you meant!

Remember the old joke that you could prove a warm beer was better than a cold beer?

Nothing is better than a cold beer.
A warm beer is better than nothing.
Therefore, a warm beer must be better than a cold beer.

I’ll drink to that.

Warm if is a stout or dark beer.

Cold if it is a lager

Slightly chilled for the ales.

No wonder English is hard to learn.
