Weekend wrap: Team Trump doesn't blink after failed North Korean missile launch

This weekend’s big story was North Korea’s failed missile launch, which elicited a growl from a Trump administration ready to show off U.S. military might.

Within hours, Vice President Mike Pence, who traveled to Seoul this weekend to celebrate Easter with U.S. and South Korean troops, derided what he called a “provocation from the north.” He assured a gathering of U.S. and South Korean troops that “President Trump’s leadership our resolve has never been stronger, our commitment to this historic alliance with the courageous people of South Korea has never been stronger and with your help and God’s help freedom will ever prevail on this peninsula.”
