Kim Jong Un Declares Love for Trump - because Trump is "not moral"




The highest-ranking North Korean defector in decades told me Kim Jong UN likes President Trump because he’s not “moral,” and doesn't judge."All previous US presidents so far have been very moral and they paid great attention on the America’s moral image," he said of Trump.

I'd rather word it as Trump is amoral and lacks judgment, but Kim comes pretty close.

If it was Thae Yong Ho it could be true, as Thae is invariably opposed to any negotiation with the North that falls short of complete capitulation to all of John Bolton's demands. On the other hand, it wouldn't surprise me if he denied it either. He's a very calculating individual who plays a significant role in the efforts of the right wing in South Korea to discredit the Moon administration and just about any negotiating overtures to North Korea by the US or South Korea.

I'd like to see the original source publicly questioned about this contention. Perhaps he will show up on the South Korean right wing news broadcast Channel A News Top Ten tomorrow. Wouldn't it have been easier to type a Korean name like Thae Yong Ho, than "The highest-ranking North Korean defector in decades...?"
