Gushing

On Thursday, during a spontaneous press availability, Donald Trump lost his shit when asked about the Mueller Report and Robert Mueller's insistence that he could not state the President was innocent. He then declared that some of Mueller's staff were "the worst people in the world."

A few minutes later, when asked about North Korea's brutal dictator Kim Jong Un, Trump gushed "he’s got a great personality." This is certainly not the first time he got all weak at the knees about Kim, who he falsely and repeatedly claims is disarming his country's nukes when in fact he's ramping up production.

In October last year, Trump dreamily declared about Kim that "we fell in love.... He wrote me beautiful letters." In February of this year, Trump said "he’s real smart. He’s sharp as you can be. He’s a real leader."

Then came the news out of Korea this week that Kim ordered executions for five of his senior officials, including one who had participated in denuclearization meetings with Trump. Kim also ordered life sentences at hard labor for two other officials who had traveled to the White House to discuss denuclearization.

Trump has remained utterly silent about these developments.
