Trump to Hold Second Summit With Kim Jong Un in February, U.S. Says
U.S. President Donald Trump and North Korean leader Kim Jong Un will meet near the end of February for a second summit, despite evidence North Korea is advancing its nuclear weapons program.
The White House announced the summit and timing after Trump met Friday with Kim Yong Chol, a top aide to the North Korean leader and a former spy chief.
Trump's decision to go ahead with another in-person meeting -- further elevating Kim's global profile -- underscores the president's confidence that his personal involvement and negotiating skills can change the behavior of recalcitrant regimes in ways that traditional leverage and diplomacy, past U.S. leaders and his own emissaries could not.

Hey, Trump is awesome, but I think the reason why he gets along so well with Kim Jong Un is because they're both manbabies at heart. Trump probably flies in a bunch of McDonalds and Mountain Dew and spends his after hours watching Die Hard and Lethal Weapon movies with Kim, the two high-fiving all night everytime a totally bitchin' explosion occurs.
