It’s no secret that Donald Trump has kicked the U.S.’s longtime allies to the curb. Instead, he has shown man crushes for some of the world’s cruelest dictators. Notice that Trump told his people to rip nursing infants from their asylum-seeking mothers’ arms – that was extremely cruel – showing that he’s willing to fall right in line with the policies of those dictators he admires.

Some of the dictators Trump has admired included Russia’s President Vladimir Putin, Sudan’s Omar al-Bashir, and China’s Hu Jintao. North Korea’s dictator Kim Jong un, however, may have been among the cruelest.

Kim Jong un has jailed not only his own people but also three generations of those he sends to one of his gulags. Plus, the dictator starves and beats his people to keep them compliant.

The North Korean leader that Trump sucked up to even had Ohio college student, Otto Warmbier, beaten so severely for stealing a poster that he was returned home to his parents in a coma and dying. This is the type of man, our president admires.

It got worse.

The North Korean state television just released video footage of POTUS saluting one of Kim Jong un’s military generals while he was at the summit in Singapore. This was a show of respect to a hostile government.

The newly released video footage from its state media showed President Donald Trump returning a salute to a North Korean military general during this week’s summit, an extraordinary display of respect from a US president to a top officer of a hostile regime.

Retired rear admiral and military diplomatic analyst for CNN, John Kirby told CNN’s Poppy Harlow on CNN Newsroom:

‘They can see a propaganda value here and this is basically them showing the level of deference and respect that Trump has paid to them and to their military leaders. It was an inappropriate for him to do from a protocol perspective, but now he’s played right into the North’s propaganda about their legitimacy on the world stage.’
