Garamendi: ‘Certainly’ I’m Willing to Give Trump ‘Some Credit’ for N. Korea Suspension of Testing

‘This war, all of this build-up, if we can back it down, if we can get two countries and create a situation where their future is secure, I think we can see some real good progress here’

RUSH EXCERPT:

BLITZER: "But are you ready at this point, congressman, to give the president some credit for this potential breakthrough?"
GARAMENDI: "Well, certainly. And also, Kim Jong-un went to Beijing. What came of that meeting? I suspect some very good things to have come out of that. So all the things are coming together, and that is good for everybody involved and certainly for the men and women in the United States military that are in harm’s way in South Korea. And certainly, for the Koreans themselves, both north and south. This war, all of this build-up, if we can back it down, if we can get two countries and create a situation where their future is secure, I think we can see some real good progress here. Certainly, all of the words and back-and-forth between the two presidents, Kim Jong-un and Trump, heated up. Perhaps they both came to their senses and said, maybe it’s time for negotiations. If that’s the case, it’s good for everybody."
