[The Hill] Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.) on Thursday voiced support for President Trump’s decision to meet with Kim Jong Un while warning the North Korean leader against attempts to "play" Trump.
"The worst possible thing you can do is meet with President Trump in person and try to play him. If you do that, it will be the end of you -- and your regime," Graham said in a statement.
Graham, who has previously said the U.S. and North Korea appeared to be headed toward war, called the planned meeting between Kim and Trump "the best hope in decades to resolve this threat peacefully."
"I understand that if the past is an indication of the future, North Korea will be all talk and no action," he added. "However, I do believe that North Korea now believes President Trump will use military force if he has to." |
