President Trump made a major announcement through the White House press corps that he will be meeting with Kim Jong Un by May. Additional to that, Trump said that Kim Jong Un is going to call off nuclear testing until they have the meeting. This is something no other living president has done: held a meeting with a North Korean leader. The left was triggered when a CNN host says Trump may go down as a "great president."
Per AP:
The White House says President Donald Trump’s meeting with North Korean leader Kim Jong Un will be held “at a place and time to be determined.” White House Press Secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders released a statement after a South Korean official broke the stunning news. Sanders says Trump “will accept the invitation to meet with” Kim. ...
President Donald Trump says “Great progress” is being made, but sanctions on North Korea will remain in place as he prepares for what would be the first-ever meeting between the two countries’ leaders. ... Trump says Kim “talked about denuclearization with the South Korean Representatives, not just a freeze.” He also says North Korea has agreed to stop testing missiles.
Erin Burnett of CNN did not hide how she felt about this. She labeled it an "extraordinary" development. She said, "Just an extraordinary evening, and, of course, opening the door to the big question: If President Trump can truly solve this problem, ah, that would be going down as a great president. And there's no way around that. That's the reality here."

@ErinBurnett - Are you freakin’ serious? This unhinged lunatic has caused the suffering and mental anguish of #DACA recipients. His defense of #racist ideology is well-documented, 19 women accused him of #SexualAssault, yet you have the gall to even utter these words? #SMH 🙄 https://t.co/BvEup5mxiU

I wonder how many shots of tequila she had after that segment just to get the taste of the words out of her mouth?
