Donald Trump continues to heap praise on murderous dictators while engaging in petty spats with our nation's allies, and he's not trying to be subtle in his admiration for the world's most vicious police state.
Fox News' Bret Baier made a point, during his interview with Trump, to bring up Kim Jong Un's record of political murders, reminding Trump Kim is "clearly executing people." Trump's response?
He's a tough guy. Hey, when you take over a country, tough country, tough people, and you take it over from your father...if you could do that at 27-years old, I mean, that's 1 in 10,000 that could do that.
Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau earned Trump's wrath for stating, during a post-G7 press event, that Canada will not be backing down on retaliatory steps against Trump's newly announced tariffs. Kim Jong Un, meanwhile, gets called a "tough guy" for overseeing a state-sponsored program of political executions, including the executions of some of his own family members.
Trump is genuinely a sociopath. The so-called president of the United States is publicly praising the "toughness" required of a dictator in executing his political opponents. For f'ks sake, he may actually be envious of Kim.
