TOGETHER AGAIN – AT 1:26 P.M. ET:  It's the newest brother act on the world stage, soon to appear at a rock venue near you.  Kim Jong Un, aka Rocket Man, leader of North Korea.  Moon Jae-in, lovable, peacenik president of South Korea.  They just met again today, brought together by President Trump's toughness in pulling out of the upcoming summit with Kim...at least until conditions are made right.

Gotta hand it to Trump.  He does something, and gets results.  Obama did something, and got ignored.  From CNN: 

Seoul, South Korea (CNN) The leaders of North and South Korea held a surprise meeting Saturday, their second in a month, two days after President Donald Trump abruptly canceled a summit meeting with North Korean dictator Kim Jong Un.

Kim and South Korean President Moon Jae-in met for two hours at the Demilitarized Zone, the South Korean presidency said in a statement.

The two "exchanged their opinions" on among other things successfully carrying out a future US-North Korea summit, according to the statement. On Thursday, Trump called off a June 12 summit with Kim in Singapore but then told reporters Friday he's still open to a conference.

COMMENT:  My own sense is that the summit will take place, but that President Trump will have the meeting essentially on his terms.  He's an excellent negotiator, and negotiates only from strength. 

The Dems are picking at Trump for pulling out of the summit, but they look like small timers, little participants in a student government.  Not exactly the party of Roosevelt, Truman, and Kennedy.
