The parents of Otto Warmbier, the American student who was captured and later killed by the North Korean regime, are suing to get ahold of a North Korean ship that U.S. forces had seized in May.
Trump looked into Kim’s eyes and saw the truthiness of his soul.
Seize the ship. Wonder if there’s precedent for this.
I’d love to see this pulled off.
A merchant ship can be 5, 10, 20, 30 $million, depending on size, type etc.
Oh, you just know Trump will take Kim’s side over the Warmbier family’s on this. Because the pretend “summit” must go on.
As American citizens, I think we all should realize the Trump Administration does not have our backs, at all.
Lock Kim & Him up!
Together! FIFY
Back to back!
Kim Jong Un and his bestest buddy Donald Trump are not gonna be happy about this.
The Warmbiers may want to rethink this. Most of those old Nork freighters are held together with duct tape and baling wire and a scoff at pollution laws. Outside of NK the vessel’s cost to break it up exceeds its value.
ETA: the ship is the Wise Honest, a bulker.
I can’t even imagine the betrayal the warmbiers must have felt watching that malignant scumbag get all kissyfaced with kim… esp upon realizing how cynically that son of a bitch exploited them for the sotu speech.
Trump looked into Kim’s eyes and saw someone who could have people machine-gunned on a whim, and whose every word is reported as glowing gospel in the state media.
And he was filled with envy.
I guess they won’t get another invitation to the State of the Union.
O/T Puerto Ricans trying to get a driver’s license in GA are faced with Jim Crow era tests.
I can’t wait to hear what the lawyers find in discovery? Can elected officials be sued for issuing discriminatory directives? Can the penalty be financial. And I guess you can’t believe in the “New South”, because it’s looking like the old South.
Are you saying Toadglans’ BFF Erdoğan won’t buy it, either?
If the U.S. can help Cuban Americans sue the Cuban government for confiscated property, our Courts should be able to allow confiscation of a ship; no idea what it’s worth or how it would be turned into profit.
I hope Warmbier receives justice even if Trump won’t help.
The ship is in US possession in American Samoa.
Trump will go ape shit in five, four, three, two, one . . . .
trump loves him some pudgy autocrat who tortured an American. He figured… Hey, I can do that too…watch me beat up on defenseless children. That’ll impress Kim fer sure. Then I’ll go see him, shake his hand as an equal and let him off Scot free for killing an American kid who took a poster…a piece of paper.
Thanks trump
For trump, money is better than justice
And now for some good news …
I’m sure this will put a damper on the Toadglans.
“Thank you, God,” Melanoma whispered to herself.
Trump might dig into his reelection money, or the RNC’s money, to pay off the Warmbier family.
Remember he and Kim exchange love letters.
