Trump Pulls Out of North Korean Summit: Thanks Regime For Releasing Our Hostages
The Trump Administration has pulled out of North Korean Summit in June citing the rogue regime’s “tremendous anger and open hostility.” Politely thanks them for releasing our hostages.
Trump calls off the summit moments after they destroyed their nuke site and we got our hostages back… For free! Sorry, Kim Jong-un you are playing checkers while President Trump is playing chess.

President Trump on Thursday canceled the highly anticipated summit with North Korea that was set for next month, calling the talks “inappropriate” following the “hostility” displayed in the latest comments from dictator Kim Jong Un.
The move to pull out of the summit, slated to take place in Singapore on June 12, came after threats from Kim to call off the talks. In a letter to Kim on Thursday, Trump said the world, and North Korea, has lost a “great opportunity for lasting peace and great prosperity.”
“Based on the tremendous anger and open hostility displayed in your most recent statement, I feel it is inappropriate, at this time, to have this long-planned meeting,” Trump wrote in a letter to Kim on Thursday. “Therefore, please let this letter serve to represent that the Singapore summit, for the good of both parties, but to the detriment of the world, will not take place.” More
