Pres. Trump and South Korean Pres. Moon Jae-in confirmed at a joint press conference he would meet with North Korean leader Kim Jong Un for a handshake.

Just hours before President Donald Trump was set to travel to the demilitarized zone between North and South Korea, he and South Korean President Moon Jae-in confirmed at a joint press conference he would meet with North Korean leader Kim Jong Un for a handshake.

Expanding on his decision Saturday to extend a last-minute invite to Kim to meet him at the DMZ, Trump said the trip was"something I planned long ago, but had the idea yesterday, to maybe, say 'hello,' just shake and quickly say 'hello.'" The president continued to express optimism about the state of relations with North Korea and insisted that important progress has been made through both of his previous summits with Kim.On Sunday morning in South Korea, Trump said that Kim"very much wants to" meet, and that the two countries are"trying to work it out. Both want to do it."

"Sure, I would. I would. I'd feel very comfortable doing that. I would have no problem," Trump said earlier in his Asia trip. After some very important meetings, including my meeting with President Xi of China, I will be leaving Japan for South Korea . While there, if Chairman Kim of North Korea sees this, I would meet him at the Border/DMZ just to shake his hand and say Hello!

Love how everyone makes fun out of what TRUMP and Kim Jong Un, I bet they would love to see a nuclear bomb to .. There are so many idiots in this world.

Only a handshake? I was sure Donald would give him head

I think your president showing what USA is keeping and pursuing for well. If Kim were to be another Mr .Deong and develop his land with Trump's support, Iran or countries against USA would try to be another Kim ...

IngrahamAngle Hypocrisy at it's finest

IngrahamAngle Thank you, President Trump! Ignore the idiots, we love and appreciate you!!

Trump and his kids combined have a brain the size of a pea. That's probably why there's not much there.

IngrahamAngle Did more than a handshake.. stayed away from media for quite awhile.. hopefully something amazing will come out of this.

trumps_feed Photo op and nothing more.

IngrahamAngle Love reading all the butt hurt comments! Looking forward to the epic melt downs next November!

IngrahamAngle God bless him!! May this propel us further toward peace!

IngrahamAngle

Wow... I bet they never wash that hand again.

IngrahamAngle *So as you can see Demon-rats hate Americans and America. Remember this. See America watch these Demon-rats they r snakes and will bite each other at the end of the debates. Keep America Great Again TRUMP! Keep your eyes open America citizens. Commander and Chief got this 1 too!

IngrahamAngle *NOT ONE ANTI-AMERICAN had a flag on stage at first Demon-rats Debate and not one candidate for President wearing an American flag pin. Plus some spoke in Spanish and all, except one, saying that they want socialist programs in place that would bankrupt the country.

IngrahamAngle LIES AND DECEIT. WHAT IS THE TRUE UNDERLYING MOTIVE HERE IT SURE AS HELL HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH MAKING AMERICA “GREAT” AGAIN

they both have concentration camps

IngrahamAngle President Trump Makes Obama look like the village idiot on a daily basis!!!

IngrahamAngle POTUS thank you

IngrahamAngle I stayed up extra late just to see this a history-making event happen now watch the Democrats will try to clubbing for this but you got to admit nobody else would have been able to do that

IngrahamAngle Laura, are you awake? Are you watching? At first I thought it was SNL! NBC Special Report

Maybe it’s just me, but is anyone else beginning to suspect that ole Kim & Donald boy are starting to emulate a little AC/DC, during our pride month? What’s up with these two? Really?

Oy gevalt ‘n geschriggen

ICallTrumpBS

One has to wonder what Mr. & Mrs. Warmbier is thinking of this bullsh*t that is happening right now at the DMZ.

Won't that be a beautiful moment!

Also the 👉🏻 murderer. I fully expect drumpf to invite OJ for a round of golf. Drumpf is in a love fest with murderers.

He touched me...Kim looked into my eyes, and then he touched me🎶💖

IngrahamAngle I wonder if both sides have snipers hidden ready to take them out 🤔

That’s good President Trump works hard to keep us safe.

IngrahamAngle What a disgrace! He continues to embarrass America on the world stage. He is now wanting to pay Iran to agree to stop their nuclear proliferation. He’s to incompetent to know that’s what we already had in place and no money was paid out of pocket.

Let there be fog and rain, lots and lots of rain. Oh and wind, lots and lots of wind.

IngrahamAngle Trump is killing it all round the world

brithume please tweet about this, this guys is such am mistake to the conservative movement, it is such a weak attempt for a noble peace award.

What a waste of your tax payers $’s for a photo op!!

They are just doing it for a photo op.... if it happens.

Tariffman and Rocketman are now making friends, it's too costly for Trump to fly such long distance to shake hand with Kim.

IngrahamAngle This is Every American Dream! Peace & Stability 🎩🇺🇸

IngrahamAngle This is a great step for peace

IngrahamAngle HISTORIC

NOTHING BUT A PHOTO OPP!!

IngrahamAngle I am glad that they are going to meet. Our President is doing a great job of keeping the North Korean leader Kim Jong Un talking to him.

Trump is going to be so disappointed that after all this staging, he still doesn’t get the Nobel Prize! Lol

IngrahamAngle A reunion of two deplorable dictators.

IngrahamAngle Great news for the world. Watch the melt down with the media. Who seems to want war with Korea or Iran for some reason. $$$$$$$$$$😉

IngrahamAngle Everyone wants to be around our president so proud of him

What happened to Fire and Fury?

It's a hair-off, who wins?

A handshake actually means trumps gonna be on his knees blowing Un

WE PRAY WE ARE FRIENDS WITH NORTH KOREA WE WANT TO BE FRIENDS WITH EVERY COUNTRY

All about the show...... Nothing important but Trump getting a 'historic' moment for a handshake, some words, photo op and done. He'll claim all sorts of amazing fears though.

A handshake... a reach around.... whatever trump wants to call it it’s bullshit.

IngrahamAngle Wow! A handshake! (FFS).

trumps_feed

If Obama would have done that he would win another peace prize. Not Trump though because you hate him so much

Congrats realDonaldTrump y’all make such a cute couple .. you should move to N. Korea

Trump just wants to slip him a note.

IngrahamAngle You can just feel the hate from some of the tweets here. But we all know the hate is because your side is losing, and those who you look to for victory have no answer except we will give free stuff, higher taxes, open boarders, and orange man bad. Gonna be a long 6 years for ya.

Trump's big achievement Getting two buffoons standing next to each other on the front pages of newspapers around the world.

IngrahamAngle

IngrahamAngle Fantastic! Thank you for keeping the dialogue open & just being you!! Thank you Mr. Trump!

Just for a PhotoOp with the caption FIRST AMERICAN PRESIDENT TO MEET WITH NORTH KOREAN LEADER IN DMZ.

IngrahamAngle The right wing fringe lost their shit when President Obama wore a tan suit, but are all giddy Comrade Trump is palling around with murderous dictators. Ok, I understand. MAGAlogic TrumpRussianAsset

Trump: Oh my god!!! What am I going to wear?

Will he have time to talk business with him?

IngrahamAngle I absolutely refuse to watch ABC

One of his BFF’s.

IngrahamAngle Is he going to apply for asylum at the NK border? ... He should because he'll be heading to jail here right after his impeachment & removal from office ... InternationalDisgrace

IngrahamAngle How much is this handshake going to cost the taxpayers for travel security etc. Does Ivanka get to go shake his hand as well.

IngrahamAngle Eat your hearts ♥️ out, you snow flakes 😂😂😂

I hope a sudden rain shower pops up🙄🙄 the hair gel summit.

Who else thinks Trump will give Kim a rose?

IngrahamAngle OH MY GOD! He's going to cross the line. I have chills

IngrahamAngle Congrats President Trump. Do what you do best.

AND WATCH THE FAKE NEWS START BITCHING ABOUT THIS....

IngrahamAngle History made again. Thank you Mr POTUS

Hey ABC, get your pundits to press Republicans on why they put up with Trump playing patti cakes with dictators. Why won't they pass election security measures? Why are they silent? HR1

IngrahamAngle

More unnecessary spending of tax payer dollars TreasonousTrump impeachtheMFTraitor

IngrahamAngle 🙂

jeain is a stupid butcher

Kim can keep him. Just walk him onto NK side of the path and keep the american trophy you deserve. Oh and keep him off twitter please.

Nothing more than a photo op by trump to claim a win in an otherwise failed international trip. Pathetic. But not surprising. Wake up deplorables. Your supreme leader is a weak and embarrassing dumb ass. Lol

Pres. orange man and South Korean Pres. Moon Jae-in confirmed at a joint press conference he would meet with North Korean leader little man for a handshake.

Just because Obama tried to meet with him for eight years means that you get to give him a handshake?!!! Traitor!!!!

It’s the most bizarre bromance that I have ever seen.
