Would-be Supreme Leader Donald Trump Photo: Anthony Wallace/AFP/Getty Images President Trump’s meeting has rekindled his decades-long admiration for dictators. The Washington Post reports that Trump privately expressed admiration for the friendly treatment Kim Jong-un gets from North Korean state television. “At one point, after watching North Korean television, which is entirely state-run, the president talked about how positive the female North Korean news anchor was toward Kim,” the Post notes. In his public remarks, Trump insisted North Koreans “love” their dictator, as shown by the displays of “fervor” — which they must perform on pain of arrest. He likewise praised Kim’s rule for being “tough,” one of Trump’s favorite compliments. “Anybody that takes over a situation like he did at 26 years of age and is able to run it and run it tough,” Trump said. “I don’t say he was nice or say anything about it. He ran it, few people at that age — you could take one out of 10,000 could not do it.” Speaking this morning with Fox & Friends, his own version of North Korean television, Trump explained why he would like to bring Kim Jong-un to the White House: “He’s the head of the country, and I mean he’s the strong head. He speaks and his people sit up in attention. I want my people to do the same.” While saying this, Trump gestured to the building behind him, implying that Trump meant his staff, not the entire country. Even by this more generous reading, Trump is waxing enthusiastic once again for the governing style of the world’s most ruthless dictators. Kim’s staff treats him with displays of extravagant deference because any member of his ruling circle he suspects of disloyalty will be brutally executed. Trump’s ultimate insult is “weak.” By calling him “strong,” Kim received his ultimate compliment.

PETTY BS. More irrelevant propaganda. The "Resistance", aka The Coup just released a bogus IG Report. Try getting outraged over some REAL "news".
Speaking this morning with Fox & Friends, his own version of North Korean television They love Kim Jong Donnell.
Stick to The View or CNN, Hondo (D). And stop hitting Grampa's cough syrup so hard.
You know what's funny? (or actually sad): YOU are the one who's obedient to Dem Party politics, obedient to Team P*ssy Hat, Homofascism & Hollywood, and obedient to lies and propaganda. There are TWO Teams vying for the truth, supporting a constitutional government, and Justice for All - and YOU are on the OTHER team, Comrade/Herr Hondo. Fly your freak-flag high.
"He speaks and his people sit up in attention. I want my people to do the same.” Yes, CLEARLY understood by SOME of us... Translation:
Yeah sure - Trump said this on FOX.
I can almost picture you snapping to attention whenever Trump speaks.
Nice try but NOT the gist or context of your post.
As opposed to you snapping to attention when the latest NY Mag or Reason.Com propaganda piece hit your in-box?
Pull your head out of The Donald's rear, and go for it!
And btw... Isn't it time you deleted your tagline, "Those who most loudly denounce Fake News are typically those most aggressively disseminating it."? Irony, YOU have indeed become a LOUD "disseminator" of "Fake News".
Hondo: "BAAAAAAAAH"
Odumbass's toadys still haven't climbed down out of his ass.
The video was from FOX - yeah, I guess some leftist techie must have manipulated the video. Trump didn't really say that, right?
Oh, now THAT's irony - insinuating that Hondo is a sheep while you perversely believe that every word that comes from Trump is gospel. Man - you Trump cultists are exactly like the BushBots in 2000. When do we get to be entertained by some "Day in the life of President Trump" threads with pictures and everything?
Those who most loudly PROMOTE Fake News are typically those most aggressively and ironically claim to support 'Freedom'.
Nice spin. FNC merely provided quotes. NOT the bogus interpretation, aka spin, aka Usual BS from Leftist-Dem propaganda rags like NY Mag and WaPo. Here's THE crux and thrust of your post (culled from the fake narrative and warped opinion of the "Resistance", aka NY Mag: ...Even by this more generous reading, Trump is waxing enthusiastic once again for the governing style of the world’s most ruthless dictators. Kim’s staff treats him with displays of extravagant deference because any member of his ruling circle he suspects of disloyalty will be brutally executed." SERIOUSLY NOW?? Lol. A 100% LIE. Frankly, your citation of this slanderous, purposeful crapola characterization of the context and meaning of Trump's statement once again reminds us that the goal of the Leftist Resistance Media is to promote divisiveness and deception. And sadly, by extension you've become a willing tool. It's been noted that the IG reports exposed several members of this same Dem-Resistance Media had bribed innumerable members of the FBI in order to leak data on Trump. Of course the names of the guilty are redacted to shield both their respective reptilian identities from embarrassment. (So you want "transparency"? An honest gummint? The truth? Cat got your tongue? Didn't bother you, eh? Naah -- didn't think so.)

Your "opinion" is duly noted.
Oh, now THAT's irony - insinuating that Hondo is a sheep while you perversely believe that every word that comes from Trump is gospel. Again -- you spin like a top. NO word from ANY one in Gummint should be believed as "Gospel". No, Trump isn't a holy man or tells the truth all of the time. But on a scale of 1-10 he's an "8". Meanwhile, those YOU rely on for "truth" -- like NY Mag -- are a "-1". THAT said, YOU two take the word of proven Liars and Propagandists like NY Mag, HuffPo, WaPo the New York Times -- bribed Dem Party whores and ghouls -- OVER the word of Trump and ANY truth. Watching so much CNN and reading all that NY Mag and WaPo while guzzling their Kool-Ade is worst than getting a lobotomy. It manages also to steal honor and souls.

It amazes me that Trump's supporters are unable to handle any criticism of "Dear Leader" without becoming emotionally unhinged. No dissenting views of Trump or criticizing his policies are to be tolerated, no matter what source they come from. And if you think Reason is a leftist site, you really are confused.
So you're saying YOUR "opinion" mirrors this opinion piece and warped interpretation of Trump as having a "decades-long admiration for dictators"? And the opinion that: "Trump is waxing enthusiastic once again for the governing style of the world’s most ruthless dictators"??
Those who most loudly PROMOTE Fake News are typically those most aggressively and ironically claim to support 'Freedom'.
This isn't any honest or constructive "criticism"; It's nothing but an opinion and thinly veiled hit-piece. No dissenting views of Trump or criticizing his policies are to be tolerated, no matter what source they come from. What are you and your co-intolerant Leftists bitching about THIS time? Trump engages in the time-honored technique of flattery during a negotiation and THAT freaks you out? Un-believable. The President was instrumental in potentially facilitating world security and peace of mind for millions who *don't* live insulated from Kim's Nuke threats. So in YOUR opinion, Trump could have called Kim a "barbarian" and "dopey fat A-Hole" -- Chyeah -- THAT would have been a GREAT ""negotiation". Truth is you and the Resistance Dem-Media would rather millions die than Trump receive any credit. And if you think Reason is a leftist site, you really are confused. Nope. Reason is at best an "inclusive" political site where conservative-libertarian opinion is shuffled into the deck with a majority of Leftist-Marxist lean and pure propaganda. The "Libertarian" opinion is to the max, which make it more anarchists than anything. In other words, Reason is a contaminated source of "news". All anyone has to do is check it out (as *I* have)

WOW! Really? Did they actually listen? It was a joke.
Those who most loudly PROMOTE Fake News are typically those most aggressively and ironically claim to support 'Freedom'. Stone, give this NJ man a cigar.
I'm the infidel... Allah warned you about. كافر المسلح
In other words, Reason is a contaminated source of "news". Why don't you just post a list of news sources that you approve of? Pass it on to Stone - maybe he can declare that articles even mildly critical of Trump are verboten.
