SEOUL, South Korea — Taking an unprecedented step onto North Korean soil, President Donald Trump announced Sunday that Washington and Pyongyang will relaunch stalled nuclear talks during an extraordinary last-minute meeting with Kim Jong Un.

Side-by-side with Kim in the heavily-fortified demilitarized zone, Trump became the first sitting U.S. president to cross the 1953 armistice line separating North and South Korea, then joined Kim for a roughly 50-minute meeting.

Now it all makes sense why the Failure, Jimmy Carter, opened his pie-hole the last couple of days.

No other American President had the courage to go behind enemy lines. Trump is a gift from God.

Jimmuh stated recently that President Trump should be investigated for collusion.

Why did you leave out half the story? After POTUS stepped into NK territory and the two men greeted one another, Kim then walked across the DMZ with POTUS into SK territory, then both crossed back into the DMZ, where they had their 51 minute conference. Our POTUS has great big Cohones. Titanium ones.

#6: "No other American President had the courage to go behind enemy lines. Trump is a gift from God."

President Trump hearkens back to the early days of the Republic. In those days our leaders were not professional politicians.
They were successful men outside of politics, and actually knew something about the real world.

UNLIKE THIS ASSHAT:

The liberal response to this will inevitably be that "Trump coddles brutal dictators." If the President refused to negotiate with Kim, he'd be accused of being a warmonger and escalating tensions in Korea by these same critics.

Their concern is never about any specific issue or policy, but rather what person or US political party is behind it.

Ike: “I will go to Korea.”

Trump: “I will go inside North Korea.”

I can’t believe NBC still employs that misfit Richard Engel as their chief foreign affairs correspondent. Go back and watch his bizarre anti-Trump ranting on Election Night in 2016. “Chicken Little on meth” was how one YouTube viewer described him. LMAO.

How many of you were just a tad skittish from movie plots you have seen where all of a sudden the couple of US SS guards are overpowered and Trump taken hostage? At that point the DemoKKKrats back here would immediately move to have Pence permanently replace him and sabotage efforts to get him back.

I mean, he walked over there alone as best I could tell. There were SS guards on our side, but I didn’t see any on the other side.
