“We Fell in Love”: President Trump Praises Kim Jong-un

HeadlineOct 01, 2018

During a rally in West Virginia on Saturday, President Trump heaped praise on North Korean leader Kim Jong-un, saying the two of them have fallen in love.

President Donald Trump: “When I did it, and I was really being tough—and so was he. And we would go back and forth. And then we fell in love, OK? No, really. He wrote me beautiful letters, and they’re great letters. We fell in love. But you know what? Now they’ll make—they’ll say, 'Donald Trump said they fell in love. How horrible! How horrible is that! So unpresidential!'”
