North Korean state paper praises Trump

Donald Trump can add another endorsement to his growing list: official North Korean state media outlet DPRK Today.
An editorial published Tuesday heaps praise on Trump as a "wise politician" and a "far-sighted presidential candidate,"
according to a report by NKNews.org, which noted that the article referred to many of the presumptive Republican nominee's statements on foreign policy with respect to North Korea in particular.

Trump said ‘he will not get involved in the war between the South and the North,’ isn’t this fortunate from North Koreans’ perspective?” the writer of the piece, identified as Chinese North Korean scholar Han Yong Mook, who also referenced Trump's comments in March saying that he would consider withdrawing United States troops from the Korean peninsula if South Korea does not pay more for its defense.

“Yes do it, now … Who knew that the slogan ‘Yankee Go Home’ would come true like this?" Han wrote, according to the report. "The day when the ‘Yankee Go Home’ slogan becomes real would be the day of Korean Unification.”

Is Obama responsible for every person/country who endorses him?

Today the ROK economy ranks around number 13 in the world. The South boasts successful hi-tech industries, is known for its construction work and auto production, and is one of the world’s top trading nations. South Korea also has twice the North’s population as well as an overwhelming diplomatic edge......
In contrast, the DPRK is an economic disaster, again stalked by hunger. Pyongyang has defaulted on its international debts. It has nothing to offer other nations: in fact, the North recently went to Third World states begging for food assistance....

South Korea could spend the equivalent of the DPRK’s entire annual GDP on defense if the former desired to do so.

But Seoul has no reason to do so when the U.S. government insists on conscripting American taxpayers to subsidize the South Koreans. Indeed, the ROK would be foolish to become self-sufficient and lose the aid of the world’s superpower. A couple weeks ago Seoul issued a cheerful press release extolling its agreement with the U.S. not to weaken the ROK’s defense “when North Korea keeps on making military provocations.” Such a deal!

Trump is right!

And Elk....you're still an idiot :lol:

If it isn't time, 60 years after a war, to reassess the implications, when would the time come?

Trump is correct, and he is also correct to say NATO obligations (and what we pay) should be reconsidered.

And then you went and criticized Obama for his policy that "reassessed the implications" of the embargo on Cuba and the Bay of Pigs fiasco coming up on 60 years old. I guess, for you, the time hadn't come yet, right? :lol:

Always the partisan hypocrite, eh, johnny?

First, no president should be hugging a dictator at a baseball game just after a terrorist attack.

That's just dumb.

Secondly, it is a shame the Bay of Pigs didn't work out, but it didn't.

Third, as to Cuba, is there even any genuine popular support for Cubans to rise up and overthrow the dictators there?

Why have they been so passive, with those who protest merely running away from Cuba (much like the anti-communist Vietnamese fled Vietnam)?
