North Korea Nuclear Talks: What's in it for Trump?
The world is left with plenty of questions after President Donald Trump surprisingly agreed to talks with North Korean leader Kim Jong Un. Esquire's Jack Holmes joins Cheddar to discuss Trump's communications strategy around the announcement. He thinks the president's approach proves he's still running The White House as though it were a reality TV show.
President Trump will meet with man he once described as "Little Rocket Man" in the hopes of denuclearizing North Korea. Holmes describes what's at stake in the unprecedented negotiations. Trump would be the first American president to meet with a leader of the communist state.
The news comes as the White House's Stormy Daniels scandal is picking up steam. Holmes reveals what's behind some critics' claims that the North Korea agreement was made to distract from the porn star's lawsuit. Daniels is due to appear on "60 Minutes" in an interview with her lawyer and Anderson Cooper.
President Joe Biden has met with new House Speaker Mike Johnson at the White House. Johnson was joined by Democratic leader Hakeem Jeffries as they discussed Biden's request for nearly $106 billion for Israel, Ukraine and other national security needs.
The new leader of one of the chambers of Congress that will certify the winner of next year's presidential election helped spearhead the attempt to overturn the last one, raising alarms that Republicans could try to subvert the will of the voters if they remain in power despite safeguards enacted after the 2021 attack on the U.S. Capitol.
