Sen. James Lankford (R-Okla.) said on Sunday that he would not refer to North Korean leader Kim Jong Un as “honorable” as President Trump has, adding that Trump should just call Kim "rocket man."

“I would never use the word honorable to describe Kim Jong Un,” Lankford said on CNN's "State of the Union."

“I think he’s better to just call him rocket man and be able to stick with that than call him honorable just because he is a ruthless dictator that does public executions of anyone who disagrees. The reason that everyone in North Korea agrees with him is because he kills anyone that disagrees with him,” Lankford added. “He has literally starved his own people to be able to help the elite.

Lankford’s comments come after Kim and South Korean President Moon Jae-in met in the demilitarized zone between the two nations, pledging to denuclearize the Korean peninsula and bring an official end to the Korean War.

6. Never happen. trump might jeopardize his Nobel Peace Prize chances.

A Nobel Peace Prize he's going to be more worthy of than Obama was of his. It's gotta be true---Maureen Dowd says so in her blow-job of a column today in the New York Times. And no, I'm not making that up.
