Trump agreed for US to pay $2 million "medical bill" for College Student N.K. killed. (this likely has not been paid)
- Thread starter Bandage
- Start date
Blocked, but I did manage to see the headline, I think.
N.K. gave us a bill, and POTUS agreed to pay it? Did I see/understand that correctly?

This is like in the Early Modern Period where the condemned nobles literally paid their executioners...
What the fuck is happening to this country?

The Art of the Deal
Anti Vax is hardly relegated to Republicans...or even Americans.
Trump probably had has hand in Kim's back pocket as he look him on a tour of N. Korea. Trump was wines dined, night at dinner with flowers as he blushed with a rose in his mouth. Then they went back to Kim's bedroom.
Astonishing.
Why not? Every Republican President of the modern era has exploded the debt ceiling, but they are the only ones that care about it when someone else is in charge.

I'm sure anti-vax punishment wasn't anywhere near the point that they were making; it was the harshest thing they could come up with for them to experience short of some shit like death or maiming.
He's desperately looking for something to have as a legacy and figures improved relations with NK could be one. Plus, he naturally prefers dictators as he wants to be one himself.
A 5 billion dollar wall also shut that discussion down. But the US paying NK after killing a citizen is just a complete "I don't wanna hear it" territory.
You can't speak after that lol, you're on mute
Does Trump's base think this is a good thing?
This seems like the type of thing they'd go after with guns blazing.

Hold on, do we know if the bill was paid? The article suggests that it wasn't. If they just "agreed" to pay the bill to get Warmbier home, then that's AOK. If we don't have an intent to pay, then fine, I suppose.
He wish he could do what Kim does over there in all impunity. I'm not even joking.
More detail in the OP would be nice, rather than just a link. Just going off that though...
First, he meets without pre-conditions, which the GOP hated Obama for even suggesting. Then he salutes a NK general. If that was Obama, impeachment for sure. Then he offers up reduced training exercises in exchange for a photo op with a dictator. Then, he gives Kim a pass for what happened with Otto. And now, he offers to pay for it. People call him tough, lol. The fact is, he'll sell this country out in a heartbeat if he can get a Nobel like Obama got, and a Trump Tower in NK.

That's literally agreeing to terroristic demands.
In what world is it ok regardless of "intent"?
We know trump has no backbone with Kim.
I still don't understand why Trump is considered "Alpha," or why Alphas insist on following him.
OP, thanks for adding more info. Trump, boasting about bringing Otto home, no mention of the payment here of course.
Isn't Kim meeting with Putin today?
lol. This motherfucker is getting dog walked.
You can almost hear putin in the BG over the phone.. "No no, 2 million.. (soviet chuckling)"
You sort of make a good point in a round about way. DJTrump aint going to pay the bill either way. Because hes a deadbeat.
But, no, this is pathetic any way you slice it. Kim is a dictator who drugged up and tortured that kid. In no way should we 'agree' to pay anything for them killing him.

He's a deeply insecure manbaby, just like all the men who consider themselves "Alphas."
It could also be interpreted as "just sign the papers, fuck 'em." If lying on paper means getting a US citizen out of a hostile country (whether those hostiles have basically killed him already or not), then I'd lie too. It also looks like they threw the bill at them as a tactic to get them to sign.
So yes, we know that Trump has no backbone when it comes to Kim, but right there, in the moment, I don't think anyone else would have done any different. There was a US citizen on the line. As far as I'm concerned, lying to N.K. to get a kid home (again, regardless of condition) is OK. That's under the VERY BIG ASSUMPTION that the treasury didn't pay. If they DID, then we know Trump is extremely weak, or seeking to appease Kim.
