Well have the meeting. >> but the real trouble started state night, when they released a statement calling vice president pence a political dummy and saying whether the u.s. will meet us at a meeting room or encounter us at a nuclear showdown is entirely dependent upon the decision and behavior of the united states. the insult targeting pence after his monday interview with fox news where the vice president brought up the libya model. >> this will only end like the libyan model ended if kim does...

Of state pompeo on the hill talking to senators. they wonders how much the administrations constant comments of the libya model, gave up the nuclear weapons and then gadhafi was taken down and killed. we know that that bothers north korea. so the secretary of state asked repeatedly how was that a good idea? how could north korea interpreted that any other way but badly? do you agree with this? secretary of state did not have an answer. he wouldnt answer whether it was a good idea, whether he agr...

Deteriorate and then with the statement going after the vice president, for something that the president has also said, and the national security adviser and the threat of nuclear war, i think it was tough for them to envision the summit going forward. >> and, jim, to kaitlans point, she said, look, i dont think the presidents hand was purbd here. what about john bolton in all of this? what can you imagine the conversations were like between the president and john bolton ahead of the letter comi...

Made by the deputies. when you look at the letter he did leave that opening. >> i want to get you in here. this all has to do with what north korea said about vice president pence calling him a political dummy for saying this just a few days ago on an interview with fox. >> the president made clear this will only end like the libyan model ended if kim jong-un doesnt make the deal. >> john bolton referenced the libyan model a few weeks ago. it is easy to grasp why united states -- gadhafi might n...

Does not speak out of school. he does not miss speak. he prepares for any interviews he does. this was not an off the cuff remarks. these remarks about libya by bolton and pence were conscious decisions to make those. you get to this point it is fair for the north koreans to say that model doesnt work for us so i dont this can we want to engage in this. it was a strategic decision made somehow. >> the administration cant get its talking point right whether talking about libya 2003 or 2011. in 20...

There be another pulling back and saying we are back on course because i think there is enough time between today and the planned situation with the intervention of international partners like south korea, japan and host country singapore. there may be another iteration of this. one thing we are hearing today is that north korea just went too far in its hostile tone towards the united states. >> more on the story. pack your suitcase. keep it packed and dont unpack it. i want to ask you about the...
