The Korean War ended with an armistice some 65 years ago. Now with a historic first meeting between the leaders of North and South Korea, perhaps that long-ago war can finally be over.
Their meeting is a good first step, there's nothing final about it. But first steps can lead to good things in a way their absence seldom does. It's fingers crossed time, for Korea and the world.
If the tensions on the Korean Peninsula can be reduced, perhaps the two Korean nations can find a way to live alongside each other in something less than fear and loathing.
If that happens, President Trump will have a full-blown diplomatic triumph to his credit. He might even win acclaim from his detractors, at least from those few not completely mired in Trump Derangement Syndrome.
