President Donald Trump said it himself to Congress and the American people: "No regime has oppressed its own citizens more totally or brutally than the cruel dictatorship in North Korea."

But when it comes to human rights, don't expect Trump to hold Kim Jong Un's feet to the fire at the Singapore summit.
"It was not easy to get here," Kim Jong Un said shortly after meeting Donald Trump on Tuesday morning in Singapore. This, after the ravages of the Korean War, decades of violent flare-ups in a conflict that never really ended, 25 years of failed nuclear negotiations, and many months of Trump and Kim threatening each other with nuclear armageddon, was quite the understatement.

The historic moment that could define President Donald Trump's legacy has arrived: he is just hours away from becoming the first sitting American president to meet face-to-face with a North Korean leader . Trump's team says the president is "fully prepared" for the meeting - which is expected to take place at 9 a.m. Tuesday in Singapore - and that he's ready to negotiate mano-a-mano with North Korea's nuclear-armed autocrat, whom Trump only recently derided as "Little Rocket Man."

Becoming the first North Korean leader to meet with a sitting U.S. president, Kim has proved to his people that he is a force the Americans have to reckon with SINGAPORE - President Donald Trump has imagined himself at the centre of high-stakes nuclear negotiations since at least the mid-1980s, when he tried, unsuccessfully, to persuade the Reagan administration that it needed a New York real estate deal-maker to lead arms-control talks with the Soviet Union. When, in 1989, he ran into the man who filled that job for President George H.W. Bush, he had a bit of negotiating advice: Arrive late, poke your finger into your adversary's chest and swear at him with a vulgar insult, he told Richard R. Burt.

A generation after Richard Nixon called Justin Trudeau's father an "asshole," Donald Trump's administration broke new ground in American political trash talk Sunday when a presidential adviser said there's a "special place in hell" for Canada's current prime minister. The insult came in one of two blistering attacks by Trump's top aides for what they saw as Trudeau's betrayal of the president at the end of the weekend's G7 summit.
