The real reason Donald Trump suddenly needs to meet up with Kim Jong Un
Donald Trump is the most narcissistically pathetic man in perhaps the entire history of the human race. Considering that everyone with any degree of class or integrity despises him, it’s not at all surprising that he feels compelled to take adoration anywhere he can get it, even if it’s from gutter trash like Kim Jong Un, and even if Kim is obviously, blatantly, flauntingly faking it. But even that doesn’t explain why Trump suddenly decided that he needed to meet up with Kim, and why it’s happening.
During his Asia trip, Donald Trump publicly sent up the bat signal on Twitter that he wanted to arrange a last second, brief, meaningless meetup with Kim Jong Un. The whole thing was so ridiculous that after Trump tweeted that he wanted to meet with him “just to shake his hand and say Hello” he added this weird collection of punctuation marks that included a question mark, parentheses, and an exclamation point. Even Trump couldn’t seem to understand that his tweet was so absurd, he couldn’t take it seriously while he was typing it out.
Yet the New York Times reported last night that the glorified handshake between Trump and Kim is indeed happening. The thing is, there is no above-board reason for Trump to want this photo op. The contentious Democratic debates have already distracted the media from Trump’s scandals for a stretch of at least several days, so it’s not as if he’s going on this last minute bender because he suddenly needs to dictate a news cycle. And if he wanted this meeting, why didn’t he just build it into his trip ahead of time?
This all suggests that after Donald Trump met with Vladimir Putin this week, something changed. Trump thought about what Putin said, and decided he needed to quickly get a message back to him, and decided to use fellow Russian puppet Kim Jong Un as a go-between, or something along those lines. There’s no way this hastily arranged nonsensical handshake meetup is simply because Trump had a sad moment and needed to be cheered up by his only friend in the world. There’s more to this – and it’ll come out eventually.
