US-North Korea: Trump and Kim Jong-un to meet at DMZ

US President Donald Trump has confirmed he will meet North Korean leader Kim Jong-un in the zone dividing the two Koreas shortly for a brief greeting.

The unprecedented meeting at the demilitarised zone (DMZ) comes after Mr Trump tweeted what he said was a spontaneous invitation to Mr Kim.

South Korea's president said they would have a "handshake for peace".

It sounds to me, like this could happen very soon.

The U.S. and South Korean Presidents made their trip together to Observation Post Ouellette in the demilitarized zone (DMZ). Both were seen being briefed while looking at the North's Kijong-dong Peace Village. @nknewsorg

Sounds like Trump and the SoKo President in the DMZ now. Happening now... but what more can it be than a short meeting...

Trump, at DMZ, complains about press coverage of North Korea talks:

"Where they say there's been no difference, there’s been a tremendous differences. They have no appreciation for it.”

He says of Kim Jong Un: “After our first summit, all of the danger went away”

A little bit of expectation in the air I'd say, will Kim show up? I'd guess so.

Trump on Putin: "A great guy." "A terrific person." Trump on Xi Jinping: "A great guy." "A terrific guy." Trump on Kim Jong-un: "A great leader." "Very talented." "Very honorable." Etc. The old conservative movement would have been repulsed by all this. I am of that movement.

Strange that Tucker Carlson, and Ivanka are there but Pompeo isn't.

She didn't appear with him at the G20 and was absent from the luncheon.  Media is reporting FLOTUS has been a no show.
I Believe in the United States of America as a Government of the people, by the people, for the people; whose just powers are derived from the consent of the governed; a democracy in a republic; a sovereign nation of many sovereign states; a perfect union one and inseparable; established upon those principles of freedom, equality, justice and humanity for which American patriots sacrificed their lives and fortunes.  I therefore believe it is my duty to my country to love it; to support its Constitution; to obey its laws to respect its flag; and to defend it against all enemies.

Why Ivanka??  Is she filling in for FLOTUS?  Maybe Melania didn't want to accompany him to N. Korea?
