I’m not a trump supporter but this women symbolizes what’s wrong with politics and media in America

[joshuaminchew]

"But hes a bad guy :( " Trump is literally trying to have a dialogue with Kim Jung Un to avoid a literal war.

She kept interrupting with insignificant details like an angry mom disappointed in her son's choice of fiancé.

"Keep your friends close keep your enemies closer."

[poncethegreat]

I'm glad we have a better relationship and open lines of communication with a potential nuclear threat. Keep your friends close and your enemies closer

[alexg]

Trump knows exactly what he's doing. GOAT status

[heavnbound]

"Let it be whatever it needs to be to get the job done" - Trump putting his EGO aside to protect our people and theirs from potential war. I don't care how many good words you need to use, if our people are safer at the end of the day Trump is doing HIS job.

[djwlopez]

HA! Does anyone really believe that Trump loves Kim Jong Un or that he doesn't know what this guy is all about! Of course he knows he deals with these kind of people in Washington all the time!

[StackRunItUp]

this guy tried to de escalate a conflict between us and north korea. and we didnt even talk about it enough

[tennesseefairfield]

"Let it be whatever it is, to get the job done"

[RickyRyanRay]

She’s the same person that would speak against America going to war but she doesn’t believe in trying to mend relationships either. I don’t know what utopia she’s hoping for but her thinking won’t get us there.

[salmansengul]

What the Heck do you want him to do then?
Start a nuclear war with NK? smh

[GbawlZ]

if he didn't have the relationship with Kim, it would be "why aren't you able to fix this threat of nuclear war with NK"? They don't care about the issue so long as they can attack him. It's not just about us either, it's about our allies within a short distance of NK who will suffer unprecedented casualties in the event of a nuclear war.

[chclt_thndr]

Trump was like “Stfu I gotta make him think we’re homies”

[teresaolds]

This woman literally sounds like a 6 year old

[HackersWorldwideUnderground]

No more threats.
That's a good thing Leslie. #WalkAway

[TXALTHAUS]

What about FDR working side by side and in hand with Stalin during World War II? Oh yeah that's different.

[betsyross]

Why does 60 minutes give us these little clips?? I would like to see the interview in full so I can see the interview in full context.

[benscott]

You’ve gotta be so willfully ignorant to believe that trump loves him and to not see what he’s trying to do. Seriously. It’s like if I’m playing someone to get something I want and then I wink at you and you totally blow my cover!

[blackpinkluv]

“We fell in love” well it was bound to happen eventually
