3:41 pm
i won't even mention north korea in that. great -- we have a good chemistry together. jong in, we have a great chairman ken, we have a great chemistry. we are well on our way. we signed an agreement that said we will begin the immediate denuclearization. ok. we already got back the hostages and i thought, obama got back hostages. he paid to get them back. they did not say that. they said but obama got them differently,ittle in green. in cash. how do you do that as president?
3:42 pm
when i was campaigning, people become to me with tears in their eyes and say would it be possible to get back the remains membersather, of family that died in the korean war. exactly have a great relationship over there. >> [laughter] >> this was the before the election. i said, i will tell you what, i will try. as we negotiated different points in singapore, i asked german can if it would be possible to do that. it was the last thing i asked. -- i said do mind you mind, would i be able to get the remains back from so many years ago and he said i will do that and you probably read, they have already done 200 people.

4:01 pm
, we are think about it dealing with a group of people who don't want to improve anything. if i said as an example, we gave them everything they wanted they would say don't approve it. because they think immigration is being weak on the border, which is therefore allowing tremendous crime to come into our country. they think that is a good issue for them. on theathetically weak border -- i don't think it's a good issue. i may be wrong, i may have gotten elected because we are strong on the border.
