| 0:39.3 | Donald Trump got a new best friend. Global stunner, the president agrees to meet face-to-face |
| 0:45.5 | with North Korea's leader, something no president has ever done. The decision to meet came suddenly |

| 2:02.7 | legitimacy. He's not prepared, Jonathan. That's the problem. There's no one at the state department |
| 2:08.1 | to brief him. There's, we have no ambassador to South Korea. Well, he'd be prepared. We don't know. |
