A 30-Second Kim Jong-un Clip That Trump Would PAY Millions to Experience: ‘Trump Would Kill For this ‘Adulation’

By

In the video below, Kim Jung-Un shows Trump what “loyalty looks like,” or at least “theatre loyalty,” since we can’t know how sincere the fans might be. Perhaps they do love Kim; he brought the American president into North Korea, a horrible precedent.

And we show Kim Jung-Un and North Korea what freedom looks like when Trump shows up at a World Series game and is bo0ed or even just a regular citizen, flipping off Trump’s motorcade:

Newly elected legislator, who flipped off Trump, says she's more than just a crude gesture

That is America and the First Amendment acting in concert. There is a reason why Trump is no fan of laws, especially when he has real power of the type he had in the White House. (He didn’t like laws as a developer in NYC, but you know what I mean). Trump is on the record as saying that the quality he seeks out even more than competence – so telling – is “loyalty,” and he damn sure wished the country at large showed some loyalty.

Meanwhile, even though the scene below is funny from one perspective, it is terribly tragic from another. First, the North Korean people are so persecuted that there is no option here. The clapping is not unanimously sincere (Perhaps some is). Lives are on the line for people that don’t subserviently bow to Kim. And yet this is the type of guy that Trump was drawn to, not Angela Merkel, Macron, Trudeau,,, No. He liked dictators because dictators were the nation. It is “Kim’s army,” “Putin’s secret police,” “MBS’s oil,” and Trump, using the words no one had ever spoken before, “My generals.” It hurt the ears. They are “America’s generals,” or “our generals.”

So if Trump were ever to see this video, he would see what he wants. If he could take away everyone’s freedom to ensure he got this response, it would be worth it in his mind. Loyalty.

Yessss. Again, it is sad upon real reflection. But in this context, Twitter decided to have a LOT of fun with it.
