Earlier today the Washington Post's Felicia Sonmez wrote that the White House put it out there that Trump and Kim Jong Un "agree in their assessment" of Biden. Unless today is the first time you discovered DWT, you probably know we've been warning about what a shit Biden is since 2005, when the blog was founded. It's something that's concerned me since the gutter-level Delaware racist and devoted corporate whore started clawing his way to the top of the American political system. Luring Democrats into backing Biden is Trump's strategy for reelection. He believes that Biden would be the easiest Democrat to beat in 2020 and-- ignoring non-starters like Frackenlooper, Gillibrand and Delaney-- he's probably right. His latest manifestation of this strategy was to tweet an outrageous statement about he and the North Korean butcher both agreeing on Biden:Yesterday when Trump's goofball press secretary, Mike Huckabee's slow daughter Sarah went on Meet the Press to perform, she was asked by Chuck Todd whether Americans should "be concerned that the president of United States is essentially siding with a murderous authoritarian dictator over a former vice president in the United States."
“Chuck, the president’s not siding with that,” she said. “But I think they agree in their assessment of former vice president Joe Biden.”Pressed whether Trump is taking Kim’s word about Biden, Sanders responded that the president “doesn’t need somebody else to give him an assessment of Joe Biden. He’s given his own assessment a number of times.”Sanders was also asked about a tweet in which Trump appeared to contradict national security adviser John Bolton. Trump had said in the tweet that while some in his administration were “disturbed” by North Korea’s testing of ballistic missiles earlier this month, the president himself was unbothered.“Some of the activity that’s taken place, as you can see from the president’s Twitter, isn’t something that’s bothering the president,” Sanders said Sunday. “He still feels good about the relationship that he has and about Chairman Kim’s commitment that he made to the president.”Members of both parties sharply criticized Trump’s handling of North Korea on Sunday.Sen. Joni Ernst (R-IA) said she “certainly wouldn’t trust” Kim. She described herself as disturbed by both North Korea’s recent missile test as well as Trump’s reaction.“I think Japan does have reason to be concerned, and I am concerned as well. We need to see North Korea back off of those activities, and we need to take a very strong stance on that,” Ernst said on CNN’s State of the Union.She added that she understand Trump “has a job to do in negotiating, but we do need to push back on North Korea and make sure that they are following U.N. guidelines.”South Bend, Indiana., Mayor Pete Buttigieg, who is running for the Democratic presidential nod, said that when Trump met with Kim last year in Singapore and this year in Hanoi, “he was essentially handling North Korea something they needed, which was legitimacy.”“And the way diplomacy works, the way deals work is you give someone something in return for something,” Buttigieg said on ABC’s This Week. “It hasn’t worked at all.”
Trump is trying to manipulate the Democratic primary because he knows Biden is the weakest candidateLindsey Graham pulled his head out of Trump's ass long enough to babble something incoherent, his mouth being stuffed with so much shit, although Sonmez reported that he said Trump was just "trying to give North Korea some space to come back to the table and end this... I’ll give Trump the space he needs to deal with Kim, but I’ll remind the president, you have to deliver on this. This is one of the signature issues of your administration."
