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.

Trump is colluding with North Korea to get reelected in 2020

It is likely that Mueller would push that for his own job security! LOL!

If Trump pulls off a denuclearized North Korea, can we make Obama give him his Nobel peace prize? You know, the one Obama got for showing up to work around his second week on the job.

Trump will end up getting more from the Norks than from the Dems

To be fair about it, the Norks are evil not retarded. The Dems are both.

In 2013, Bill Richardson and Eric Schmidt (Google Chairman) visited North Korea.

I am waiting for CNN talking heads to use the “wag the dog” analogy so Trump can deflect from the porn star's allegations...

There should be a pre-condition that the Norks return to us the USS Pueblo.

Trump should agree to meet Kim Jong Un at Louie ‘s Restaurant in the Bronx.

"I don't want Trump coming out of that toilet with just his d__k in his hands, alright?"

“There should be a pre-condition that the Norks return to us the USS Pueblo.”

Why?

We got the people back and the boat is now worthless.

Anderson D.B. Cooper is already playing that. "State and DoD were not aware this was coming...."

” Would be a TERRIBLE mistake for him to agree to meet. He should agree to meet AFTER KIM HAS DISARMED and DESTROYED the nukes”

Your post literally makes no logical sense.

It’s like Reagan demanding the USSR give up nukes first. Just so absurd that it is best left as a goofy internet suggestion.

It’s a symbolic gesture, but the Norks have been using it as a museum.

It’s a good test as to how sincere they are.

This is Trump preparing the American people for the coming war. Showing he is sincerely interested in peace bolsters his strength at home.

Here’s a much more likely scenario than the Norks abandoning their nuke program: NK will cheat and Trump won’t stand for it. It will begin with a blockade. Hopefully that will lead to an NK economic collapse and not too many SKs will get hurt.

I was just wondering...what narrative is the MSM brain trust feverishly hammering out at this hour to diminish any accolades that may be heading DJT’s way?

Stormy Daniels.

It's been the top story all day on the DEEP STATE (oops) I mean the MSM channels.

They both both intricately involved and well aware. It’s just that the leaks have been plugged.

It’s a needless sideshow that only a few people online and military trivia hounds give to turns about.
