After a fiery press conference yesterday that seemingly did more damage than good, President Trump seems desperate to change the topic this morning. Having attacked Amazon earlier over Twitter, the President just tweeted the following message thanking Kim Jong Un for a "very wise and well reasoned decision" saying the "alternative would have been catastrophic."
"Kim Jong Un of North Korea made a very wise and well reasoned decision. The alternative would have been both catastrophic and unacceptable!"

Seems we've come a long way since the "fire and fury" promised last week.

So, with a nuclear showdown with North Korea moved to the back burner for now, what other fireworks will we get from Trump Tower today? More advisory council resignations perhaps?
