that s very nice. nobel. what do you think you ve achieved with the coming upcoming summit with regards to the peace prize? i don t know. this should not be about personal ego. it s not the same as closing a real estate deal. in the last two days, the president of the united states has given the world whiplash, leaving crucial allies stunned. none of them knew it was coming. when he canceled the summit, nobody had any idea. the front pages of newspapers around the world of course ran with the headline the erratic negotiations. and now tonight it might be back on, on the same day. you can be forgiven for being, at best, deeply confused and concerned. kate lynn collins is out front live at the white house tonight. does anyone have any idea what s actually happening right now with regards to the summit? anyone except for the president of the united states? that s the question. the president has one view of this. his staff has a much different view. president trump sounding downr
