“Trump is travelling to North Korea in May, and of course there are reasons, a hundred reasons, why this is dangerous. We’re talking about, after all, a family who have reneged every deal they’ve ever signed. And Kim Jun Un can’t be trusted either.”

They both love missile parades, and they both lie on their golf scores. One day, you see staff members working for them, and the next day – they disappear.”
