  1. Trump wanted this for a decade
  2. They put on this ridiculous thing
  3. Trump isn't pleased; obviously uncomfortable

Why the hell did they do this then?

He didn't want it because he thought he would personally enjoy it, he wanted it because he thought it would make him look badass to the other dictators he's always trying so hard to impress and emulate.

A timeline where saying, "you're no Kim Jong Un" is an insult.

During his previous term, I recall Trump and Kim Jon Un getting into a little spat (before they got buddy-buddy)...and Kim Jong Un came out of it looking like the sane one.
