Trump says he "would be honoured" to meet with Kim Jong Un

“If it would be appropriate for me to meet with him, I would absolutely, I would be honored to do it,” Trump said Monday in an Oval Office interview with Bloomberg News. “If it’s under the, again, under the right circumstances. But I would do that.”

The U.S. has no diplomatic relations with North Korea, and as recently as last week, Secretary of State Rex Tillerson said at the United Nations that the U.S. would negotiate with Kim’s regime only if it made credible steps toward giving up its nuclear weapons and ballistic missiles.

“Most political people would never say that,” Trump said of his willingness to meet with the reclusive Kim, “but I’m telling you under the right circumstances I would meet with him. We have breaking news.”

Perhaps Dennis Rodman can arrange something?

Why not invite him to the white house? He already invited that Philippine ruler, a killer.

Who is next fucking Assad?
 
I mean, honoured is the wrong word but opening communication isn't the worst thing in the world.

He would probably get a hell of a deal on coal.

I like the breaking news thing, Trump should create some sound effects he could play while he talks to journalists.

Since there's no quote showing that the reporter explicitly referred to Kim Jong Un as the leader of North Korea, my money's on Trump not actually knowing who the reporter was talking about and just throwing out a vague platitude.

There's literally a zero percent chance Trump can tell the difference between the names Kim Jong Un and Xi Jinping.
 
Gotta love how he is only saying this type of shit to DICTATORS but not to anyone else. Dictators know their own kind. Impeach this cock hole of shit dick now.
 
Trump and Kim Jong Un have something in common. They're both BFF's with Dennis Rodman. Dennis Rodman was one of Trumps favorite contestants on NBC's The Apprentice
 
Saw another clip of his CBS interview where he's talking very admirably about Un, talking about how hard it must have been for him to retain power and how he's a "smart cookie." It's absolutely appalling.
 
It would be interesting to open a dialogue like that, but where would either of them be comfortable meeting that wouldn't be super-dangerous for one of the two?

Maybe they can facetime or something
 
Like he'd actually show up. Trump would end up negotiating with a Doombot instead.

I dunno. I think it's sort of his duty to meet with the heads of state. Particularly with countries that we are having escalating conflicts with. It's called diplomacy.

I hate the fucker as much as the next dude, but this isn't a big deal.
 
Does anyone have a drug to take me out of this nightmare? Honored? Does he know what Kim Jong Un does on a regular basis?

You know what. Fine. Do it. Let them talk about their sociopathic tendencies together.
 
Trump has displayed no real awareness of morality, and tends to take a "it's fine as long as it's legal" stance that's concerning to say the least.

He only really seems to care about people he considers "great".
No matter how many people they've killed.

So, let's see. Sisi of Egypt has already visited. Duterte was invited. He wants to meet Kim Jong Un.

He is collecting every dictator's calling card or something.

I actually don't think it's a bad idea to open dialogue with hostile nations, I just don't trust Trump to be the one to do anything intelligent about it. I agreed with Obama back in 2007 when he said he'd be willing to meet with Iran without preconditions for example.

I guess he's gunning for his Nixon goes to China moment.
