President Trump criticized the media Sunday for its own critical coverage of his meeting with North Korean leader Kim Jong Un.
“Funny how the Fake News, in a coordinated effort with each other, likes to say I gave sooo much to North Korea because I ‘met,'” Trump tweeted. “That’s because that’s all they have to disparage! We got so much for peace in the world, & more is being added in finals. Even got our hostages/remains!”

On Tuesday, Trump and Kim had a summit in Singapore — the first time a sitting U.S. president and sitting North Korean leader met face-to-face.
The two discussed denuclearizing the country, and signed a declaration, though there was no concrete agreement on when and how North Korea would eliminate its nuclear program.
Since the historic meeting, Trump has heaped praise on the North Korean leader, who oversees an oppressive regime and has often threatened the U.S. and its allies.
In another Sunday tweet, Trump said the deal is “being praised and celebrated all over Asia.”
“The denuclearization deal with North Korea is being praised and celebrated all over Asia. They are so happy! Over here, in our country, some people would rather see this historic deal fail than give Trump a win, even if it does save potentially millions & millions of lives!” he said.
