Korea Unites?

In South Korea, Summit With North Korea Is Greeted With Hope — And Skepticism
In a day filled with compelling images and stirring rhetoric, Friday's political theater and media spectacle in South Korea had something for just about everyone. North Korean leader Kim Jong Un took historic strides across the border to meet South Korean President Moon Jae-in. Then, he invited Moon to step briefly into the North.


My thoughts and prayers are that Trump doesn't mess this up.
