Trump Just Sent Bizarre Tweet Saying Kim Jong Un Looks ‘Good and Very Healthy’
Donald Trump sent a pair of bizarre tweets Monday afternoon that praised the health of North Korean dictator Kim Jong Un.
Which is odd for many reasons.
One of Trump’s sycophants said earlier that Kim was in terrible health.
Fox News’ Tucker Carlson appeared on Fox and Friends Monday morning and said that Kim was in very poor health.
“He was breathing like an emphysema patient. I’m not saying that to be insulting but he was breathing in a labored way like he was out of breath,” Carlson said. “And even allowing for the historic nature of it, which I’m sure played a role in his breathlessness, but my take as a non-physician was — this is a very unhealthy guy. Very unhealthy. I mean, maybe I’m wrong… but that was the first thing I thought. This guy is in very bad health.”

Which makes these tweets from Trump that much more odd:
It was great being with Chairman Kim Jong Un of North Korea this weekend. We had a great meeting, he looked really well and very healthy – I look forward to seeing him again soon….

….In the meantime, our teams will be meeting to work on some solutions to very long term and persistent problems. No rush, but I am sure we will ultimately get there!

Twitter had some thoughts:
"He looked really well and very healthy."
As opposed to, say, Otto Warmbier. https://t.co/LvGviGbPgt

This is an interesting tweet.
Was there something on Fox just now about KJU's health? Did he see an IC report on KJU's health and is publicly contradicting it?
(KJU is reported to suffer from gout and is a very heavy smoker.) https://t.co/lrERRVQpxY

I'm so glad the absolute dictator of the world's worst totalitarian state looked healthy and well fed. Did you ask him how his people are doing? https://t.co/y8dn52xrZU

You mean a murderous despot who starves his own people looks like he hasn't missed a meal? Shocker. https://t.co/oizMWujas7
