Trump defends Kim Jong Un executing people: Video




BAIER: Kim Jong Un is "clearly executing people."

TRUMP: "He's a tough guy. Hey, when you take over a country, tough country, tough people, and you take it over from your father ... if you could do that at 27-years old, I mean, that's 1 in 10,000 that could do that." (via FOX)



Absolutely unreal.

We're talking about a man who praised Duterte for his "drug crackdown" (murder suspected drug dealers and users) and who has said on numerous occasion that he wants to torture people and murder their families.

And he is so confidant no one will do anything about it, he doesn't bother will the feel-good lies Bush told (calling torture by another name). By calling torture "enhanced interrogation", people - some piss poor excuses for humans - could play at pretending the U.S. government wasn't committing war crimes.

And unless something is done about Trump - unless he's actually held accountable - he's right to feel confidant.

Anyone expecting Trump to denounce KJU hasn't been paying attention.

Trump admires dictators - the more brutal the better.

The crimes against humanity being perpetrated by ICE are getting America ready for summary executions of luckless individuals who can't produce their papers or who don't produce them fast enough to satisfy some trigger-happy murderer with a badge and a gun. Trump longs to be in the tough guy league with Kim.

Trump of course also keeps pointing out that others have done “bad things” too — he loves whataboutism to dismiss his own behavior.
