Trump taunts 'the haters and losers' ahead of historic summit with Kim Jong Un
President Trump is warming up for his historic summit with North Korean leader Kim Jong Un by tweeting about the "haters and losers" who have doubted him.
It's Tuesday morning in Singapore, and Trump is just hours away from his meeting with Kim. Instead of focusing on the good that could come out of the summit, Trump decided to take a different, error-ridden approach. "The fact that I am having a meeting is a major loss for the U.S., say the haters and losers," he tweeted. "We have our hostages, testing, research, and all missle [sic] launches have stoped [sic], and these pundits, who have called me wrong from the beginning, have nothing else they can say! We will be fine!"
So there you have it, haters, losers, and everyone in between — we will be fine!
