Nypost ^ | 06/03/2023 | Jon Levine

Former President Trump offered a hearty congratulations to Kim Jong Un after North Korea’s admission to the World Health Organization’s Executive Board.

“Congratulations to Kim Jon Un,” Trump said in a post to his Truth Social account on Friday, while sharing an article about the news.

The move immediately drew waves of criticism from Republicans.

“Kim Jong Un starves his own people. It’s a total farce that North Korea has a leading role at the World Health Organization,” said presidential candidate and Trump’s former U.N ambassador Nikki Haley.

Somehow the Branch Magadonians will find nothing wrong with this, yet still whine that DeSantis is close w Jeb and Paul Ryan.

Trump's always been about constructive engagement with KJU, trying to convince him to westernize, become a transformational leader and abandon his dictatorial ways and nuclear weapons. Trump appealed to KJU's vanity trying to soften him up. We also know what Trump thinks of the WHO, which isn't something he holds in high regard post Covid. His "congratulations" works on many levels and is probably not meant to be taken at face value.

Nikki isn't wrong about KJU and probably knows exactly what Trump is meaning.

It’s called diplomacy, dumba55. If trump develops a relationship with this psycho then maybe he can make progress on ending the communist stranglehold in North Korea.

When their idol makes stupid pronouncements like this it’s either satire or 42nd degree chess….. They can’t admit Trump regularly shoots himself in the foot

The move immediately drew waves of criticism from Republicans.

This early in the morning. Aren't they still hung over from their Memorial Day weekend bender, the same bender they were on when they negotiated a really tough budget deal with Biden and forced him to take even more than he ever hoped to get, thereby enabling this hole globalist enterprise in the first place.

It's a variation of the blazing saddle scam. Linda walking around with a gun to his head unless we support him on his forever wars, and we need him to maintain some semblandce of "conservative" "control" in the US gubmint.

It's not even Kabuki any more. That requies skill. This is just mindless drivel before indulging in their mornign "hair of the dog."

It could be satire on Trump’s part.
Or it could be just another unforced error.

Or it could a clever application of the old saying, “Keep your friends close and your enemies closer”.

Take yer pick.

Despite everything else going on there is still no denying the DeSantis/Jeb/Ryan connections.
You don't seem to be finding anything wrong with that.

Walking away, chewing gum.

The WHO is in the business of population reduction to “save the planet”—North Korea belongs there!

It’s like his untoward comments against Kayleigh. She did nothing to deserve any of it except turn on him to push DeSantis.

Trump would sell out his mom, where she still live, if it made him profit or headlines. What a scumbag.

Of course the ‘trans’ republicans are upset ... they intended their next invasion to take place in North Korea ... again... Truly amazing just how bloody the ‘trans’ republicans/ also known as “neocons’ and democrat Catholics literally are.

I mean, really now, how can they import millions of North Koreans without an invasion?

Branch Magadonians?

Better than a Branch DeeDeepStateDeeSorosians.

Or, is that DehDeepStateDehSorosians? LOL.

See how that works?

Pres Trump stepped into the DMZ to meet the enemy, face to face. If you’re not understanding his “accolades”, then you’ve been living under a mossy rock. Go back, but....be careful not slip, and, fall...ala Xiden.

Lecter subsequently hangs up the phone because he is “having an old friend for dinner”

If this is satire it could have been handled better.If it’s not...I guess I have to start questioning DJT’s sanity.

I like how Trump does not have handlers…well, I’m sure he does, but he don’t listen to them. Heh.
