Trump NK - an economic powerhouse! - Page 3

North Korea, under the leadership of Kim Jong Un, will become a great Economic Powerhouse. He may surprise some but he won’t surprise me, because I have gotten to know him & fully understand how capable he is. North Korea will become a different kind of Rocket - an Economic one!

Anyway, it's not my fault that Trump says stupid and incorrect things. And there is nothing wrong with calling him on them. That's what should happen. Republican or not.

EVERY word.

:-), ....@ your excuses.It's just your poor personal feelings & opinions taking center stage.

lame as it ever was.

Well, this was easy:

I presume that this is just Trump stroking Kim's ego. I hope so, anyway.

You're becoming almost as inaccurate as Glory. Not a good look, brother.

Errr, what? It's no one's fault that Trump says stupid things except Trump. Are you saying otherwise?

If you agree that Trump's statement wasn't accurate, we agree. And if so, your declaration would apply to you as well.

Neat, eh?

IDK, what part is inaccurate, comrade?

Can someone explain the controversy?

I don't see how the statement hurts anything.

It seems blatantly obvious that, of all populaces on earth, the North Koreans are among the most primed for economic progress.

They're a hardworking people with abundant resources who are inhibited by government control.

Cuba is probably the closest rival.

It's called a carrot. What's controversial about this particular carrot?

Oh, it's another of your incessant tedious 'Trump did something so I'm mad' tirades.

Nevermind.

You'd think I'd have learned by now.

It's only incessant because of the frequency with which Trump provides them. It's not hard to understand. If you wish to accept them without comment, so be it. I won't.

Get 'em tiger!!

I mean, surely you do get that the entire discourse is

OmiGod, Trump said . . .

- So?

Well, he said. . .

- What are you mad about

He said, . . . Trump said. . .

- And what's the controversy?

He said it, . . again. . . Trump, . . . said.

You're a babbling fool. I'm hoping for better from you.

Simple question - What is the controversy in praising NK's economic potential?

I mean, even at the outset, you admit

Then you realize it's Trump you're talking about, so you have to dig for nonsense adjectives like sensational and unprecedented.

Explain the application of those adjectives, and what denotes them as derogatory in this context.
