Amid Secretary of State Rex Tillerson's direct diplomatic negotiations with North Korea this weekend, President Donald Trump tweeted doubt diplomacy with "Little Rocket Man" is anything more than a "waste of time."
Tillerson has engaged in rare talks with the regime of North Korea's Kim Jung Un, who President Trump rebukes as "Rocket Man" for his unauthorized missile tests and nuclear weapons program.
President Trump's tweets Sunday morning suggest little has come in the way of progress as Secretary Tillerson is in Beijing, China. The Trump administration has called on China to help with negotiations, and sanctions, with North Korea.
The White House announced Friday a President Trump trip to the region to visit with Japan, South Korea, China, Vietnam, and the Philippines from Nov. 3-14.
