Trump Fawns Over Kim Jong Un to Hannity: ‘He is Very Sharp’ and a ‘Real Leader’

In his post-Vietnam summit interview with Fox News on Thursday night, President Donald Trump gushed over Kim Jong Un while shrugging off critics who take issue with his friendly attitude toward the North Korean tyrant.

Sean Hannity asked Trump to elaborate on the dinner he had with Kim before their denuclearization negotiations fell apart in Hanoi. From there, Trump heaped praise on Kim, saying “he is a real personality, he is very smart, he is sharp as you can be, he is a real leader. He is pretty mercurial.”

Did Hannity push back on any of this fawning over a despot with nuclear weapons who commits crimes against humanity on a daily basis? No. Instead, the Fox host moved on with an obvious, matter-of-fact observation that Trump isn’t rushing to make a deal which doesn’t include North Korea’s complete and verified denuclearization.

Perhaps the President should invite this good friend Kim Jong-un to the next White House dinner he hosts for Evangelical leaders - perhaps Trump could pass him off as just another good, misunderstood soul who is just another victim of !he "fake news" invented the "enemies of the people!"

It's troubling that Trump has trouble getting along with our allies, and finds communists and other dictators to be good friends.

It's a poor fit for an American.

Trump is fawning over Kim Jong-un, but he insulted an American hero, John McCain, by saying McCain was only a war hero because he was captured. Trump said he likes people who weren't captured.
