The executive director of the arms control with north korea making headlines again this week. How concerned are you . Im increasingly concerned about the situation. What we just saw was a test of a more powerful missile. North koreans have achieved what President Trump said they could not achieve.

They were shaking hands and kissing babies and giving speeches to bring up or maintain a lead they have at the polls. Our Political Correspondent is live in iowa. Lots going on at the fair.
