WASHINGTON (AP) — President Donald Trump is suggesting that a congressional hearing Democrats arranged with his former personal attorney may have contributed to his failure to reach a deal with North Korean leader Kim Jong Un.

"For the Democrats to interview in open hearings a convicted liar & fraudster, at the same time as the very important Nuclear Summit with North Korea, is perhaps a new low in American politics and may have contributed to the 'walk,'" Trump tweeted."Never done when a president is overseas. Shame!" During the House Oversight Committee hearing, Cohen, who has turned on Trump and has pleaded guilty to lying to Congress earlier to protect Trump, was harshly critical of his former boss, calling him a racist, a con man and a cheat.
Bolton said that the leaders left on good terms and that Trump made an important point to North Korea and other countries that negotiate with him. "He tells me that he didn't know about it, and I will take him at his word," Trump said at a news conference last week."It doesn't mean that he accepts it as reality. It means that he accepts that's what Kim Jong Un said," Bolton said."I think Kim knew what happened, which was wrong," McCarthy said.
