4. North Korean Envoy Bringing Letter From Kim Jong Un to Trump

All media is at the white house awaiting the delivery!!!

A top aide to Kim Jong Un is en route to Washington Friday to hand a letter from the North Korean leader to President Donald Trump, though it isn't clear what the letter contains.

Kim Yong Chol left his hotel in New York City early Friday for the trip to Washington in a convoy of SUVs. He is the highest-ranking North Korean official to visit the U.S. in 18 years, and his trip to the White House will be a highly symbolic sign of easing tensions after fears of war escalated amid North Korean nuclear and missile tests last year.

Kim will meet with Trump in the Oval Office, NBC News reported.

Trump revealed on Thursday that Kim had the letter. Secretary of State Mike Pompeo discussed it later as well, though he could not say if Trump would reverse his decision pulling out of the nuclear summit with North Korean leader Kim Jong Un on June 12 after reading the letter.

I doubt that's what it is - more likely it's full of over-the-top flattery that will give Needy Amin an instant stiffy (the NKs knowing full well how easily he can be manipulated by stroking his ego). But wouldn't it be great entertainment if the letter said, "Sorry, Donald, I've changed my mind?"

Needy Amin!

Thank you, Ocelot. I have not heard that one and it makes my day.

Enjoy your weekend!

You know Trump isn't going to be able to read it all the way through. There probably should be lots of cool graphics, as well.

We have a mutual acquaintance who shared an interesting video with me. Let's just say his last name begins with a "P" and the video is also related to the letter. Shall we begin negotiations now? With love, Kimmy."
