Former national security adviser John Bolton  tweeted on Tuesday that former President Trump wants to be treated like North Korea’s Kim Jong Un  and people should “get ready.”

Donald Trump  wants Americans to treat him like North Koreans treat Kim Jung Un. Get ready……” Bolton posted on X, the platform formerly known as Twitter.

Bolton, who served as the national security adviser under the Trump administration, posted a viral clip of Trump speaking with Fox News’s Steve Doocy in 2018, where the former president offered praise for the North Korean leader.

“He’s the head of a country, and I mean he’s the strong head. Don’t let anyone think anything different. He speaks and his people sit up at attention,” Trump is heard saying in the clip. “I want my people to do the same.”

    Probably my favorite Trump moment.

    On his famous visit to N. Korea, dipshit Don salutes a N. Korean General as Kim Jong Un watches with bewildered side eye. Indelibly hilarious, and captured in a famous photograph.

    Trump is so god damn dumb he almost makes George W. Bush appear like he was a seasoned diplomat.

        Oh sweet white water rafting Jesus— thank you for adding this!

        Look closely at Kim Jong Un’s face. He’s like: “What the fuck???”

      Trump is so god damn dumb he almost makes George W. Bush appear like he was a seasoned diplomat.

      this is so depressingly accurate it hurts. and George was a putz, a world class schmuck. And Trump makes George look like Kissinger.
