Trump Steps Into North Korea as He Meets With Kim Jong-un at DMZ

President Trump became the first American president to set foot in North Korea on Sunday as he greeted Kim Jong-un, the country’s leader, at the heavily fortified Demilitarized Zone that has divided the peninsula for more than six decades.

Mr. Trump stepped across the border and was met by a beaming Mr. Kim as the two shook hands and patted each other’s backs in an encounter carried live on international television — an unprecedented, camera-friendly demonstration of friendship intended to revitalize stalled nuclear talks.

“Big moment, big moment, big progress,” Mr. Trump said.

Mr. Kim praised the American president for his “courage” in making the visit.

A showman by nature and past profession, Mr. Trump delighted in the drama of the moment. It was the first time American and North Korean leaders have gotten together at the line bristling with concertina wire and weapons, where heavily armed forces have faced off across a tense divide for 66 years since the end of fighting in the Korean War.

Trump has also invited Kim to the White House.

No word though if Kim has accepted this ...

Who would've thought?

I have no idea how you can disagree with what Trump is doing in North Korea. it is one of the few areas that I give him complete credit for doing the right thing.

Even if this goes nowhere, it certainly doesn’t hurt.

They look shockingly similar. Both are fat petulant pouting man-children.

Maybe that's why they get on so well.......

I don’t know if there will be any real change to come out of this, but what I do know is that this is a great photo-op

Seoul on alert over North Korea's new missiles

South Korean and U.S. military officials confirmed Sunday that North Korea has successfully developed a new, more advanced ballistic missile that can defeat the South's missile defense system.

The officials referred to Pyongyang's July 25 test launches of two short-range missiles ― a modified version of Russia's Iskander ― that can fly horizontally after a rapid descent before heading vertically down to strike a target.

The so-called pull-up maneuver makes it difficult for the Korea Air and Missile Defense (KAMD) system to shoot it down, because KAMD is designed to shoot down an incoming missile in its terminal phase.

Trump should just assure them that everything is fine. After all, everything's going "according to plan."
