Donald Trump has claimed that the North Korean people “love” Kim Jong Un in an extraordinary interview with ABC News’ George Stephanopoulos following the summit in Singapore. “His country does love him,” said the president. “His people, you see the fervor. They have a great fervor.” Asked how he can say then when the leader stands accused of torturing and murdering his citizens, the president replied: “George, I’m given what I’m given, OK? I mean, this is what we have, and this is where we are, and I can only tell you from my experience, and I met him, I’ve spoken with him, and I’ve met him.” Asked if he trusts the North Korean leader, Trump said: “I do trust him, yeah. Now, will I come back to you in a year and you’ll be interviewing and I’ll say, gee I made a mistake? That’s always possible.”

1. This is like saying citizens enjoy being kneecapped with a hammer

Trump is an absolute moron

[workinclasszero]

4. I love how our so-called president slams free and democratic Canada and her leader

then embraces a stone cold killer dictator like Kim and his walled prison/country.

[Dave Starsky]

6. Literally.

I'm sure Trump is salivating over the idea of executing people with antiaircraft guns. Just think how much the American people will love him then.

[workinclasszero]

9. Yeah we love dear leader long time then

SPIT

[workinclasszero]

2. They love him alright

because it would be instant death for one of his subjects not to.

[wcmagumba]

3. Another...

I looked into his eyes and saw a beautiful soul bromance...dumbshit...

[gordianot]

5. The most simple concepts are difficult for Trump in dealing with human interactions.

Actually North Korea is a good match for Trump's inner most desires, as long as you have a loyal mindless following all is right with the world.

[hot2na]

7. Another bold and decisive US leader...

...once said about Putin "I looked into his eyes and got a sense of his soul". W's defense secretary Robert Gates responded by saying he looked into Putin's eyes and saw a stone cold killer.

Trump/Kim is Like Bush/Putin on steroids. Why is it that these GOP con men talk the talk but don't walk the walk? The answer because they get away with it.

[C_U_L8R]

8. Or else.

Trump is clearly jealous of the totalitarian.

[workinclasszero]

10. No doubt about that

Trump can cut deals for his crime family with killer despots.

That's why he hates Canada and Germany, no action.

[Nitram]

11. Trump is such a tool.

[Iliyah]

12. Well if the NK people don't they die, it's that simple.

When will the US troops start to come home leaving SK open? Japan as well? Ya know, our allies.

China and Russia - loving this huh.

[turbinetree]

13. Did Dennis Rodman tell you that dumb shit.............you do realize psychopath that it is a GULAG

your a fucking embarrassment, how many North Korean fled to the South Korea dumbshit............please tell us, and then tell us how many South Koreans fled to North Korea.................

[MBS]

14. Speechless.

Episode #2132 of "Seriously? This isn't the Onion?"
We are in trouble every minute that this crowd has the levers of power.
I hope that we will be able to rebuild our country after these vandals are gone.

[Achilleaze]

15. The republican Draft Dodger is lying again

as he does every day.

[N_E_1 for Tennis]

16. What does this mean?...

“George, I’m given what I’m given, OK? I mean, this is what we have, and this is where we are, and I can only tell you from my experience, and I met him, I’ve spoken with him, and I’ve met him.”

[Turbineguy]

17. Maybe Trump has figured it out:

"If I collapse the economy and starve the country, people will like me more!"

Whatever pops into that idiot's head comes out of his mouth.

[Botany]

18. The North Koreans love the man who is starving them to death as he is building ...

.... nuclear weapons, submarines, and a ski resort?
