BERKELEY HEIGHTS, N.J. (AP) — President Donald Trump said Saturday that North Korea's Kim Jong Un wants to meet once again to "start negotiations" after joint U.S.-South Korea military exercises end. He also said Kim apologized for the flurry of recent short-range missile tests that has rattled U.S. allies in the region.
Trump is tweeting more details from the "beautiful" three-page letter he told reporters on Friday that he'd received from Kim. Trump, who is on vacation at his golf club in New Jersey, said Kim spent much of his letter complaining about "the ridiculous and expensive exercises," which North Korea sees as a threat.
He said Kim offered him "a small apology" for the recent tests and assured him "that this testing would stop when the exercises end." North Korea on Saturday fired what appeared to be two short-range ballistic missiles into the sea, according to South Korea's military — the fifth round of launches in less than three weeks.

[ apologized for missile tests ]
Yeah, darn things. They just go off by themselves a lot of the time. See Kursk and K-219.
Kim apologized.
He thought that was the door button to let the pizza guy in - not the FIRE MISSILE button.
Political and negotiation games.
Trump is tweeting more details from the “beautiful” three-page letter
*************
‘Beautiful’ is not a word that belongs in sentence relating to Kim.
‘Brutal’ would be more appropriate.
Lunch and launch are easily confused.
So you’re not familiar with negotiations?
You can take that apology and stick it where the sun don’t shine.
Hopefully President Trump is not that naive.
Why do the always print, DO NOT PUSH on the big red button.
Nobody can resist that.
Kim better come to his senses.
President Trump may talk nicely, but he is carrying a big stick. He wants to come to some reasonable peaceful agreement, but is not going let Kim push us too far.
There it is...
Perfectly understandable SNAFU.
.
Concur. The time for meetings is over. I would tell him to stick his apology up his ... and that the sanctions will ratchet up.
Kim was a Baaaaaad Boy
Do you really think Kim has any control over what goes on in North Korea?
think that that would probably be toying with racism though.
yea and wants to offer green leprechauns and kisses to us
LOL.
