Article said:
"Republican US presidential candidate Donald Trump has said Kim Jong-Un deserves "credit" for his style of command. The property magnate marvelled at how "incredible" it was that the North Korean leader had held on to his power in the communist regime.

At a meeting in Iowa on 9 January, Trump told crowds of Republican supporters: "If you look at North Korea, this guy, he's like a maniac. OK? You've got to give him credit. How many young guys – he was like 26 or 25 when his father died – take over these tough generals, and all of a sudden – you know, it's pretty amazing when you think of it.

"How does he do that? Even though it is a culture, and it's a cultural thing, he goes in, he takes over, he's the boss. It's incredible. He wiped out the uncle, he wiped out this one, that one."

Trump was referring to Jang Song-thaek, Kim's uncle, who was reportedly stripped naked, thrown into a cage and eaten alive by a pack of hungry dogs, according to an NBC report; however those claims were later dismissed with The Guardian reporting the man was likely killed by firing squad. The US presidential candidate added: "This guy doesn't play games and we can't play games with him. Because he really does have missiles and he really does have nukes."

Previously, Trump had called the North Korean leader a "total nut job". He told Fox News: "I think it's a serious problem because he is probably on the wacky side."

It's reported that the Communist leader is supporting the Republican in his bid to become US president, according to KB News Daily. The North Korean has apparently been "closely following" the debates.

"The Supreme Leader closely weighed and measured the talents all of the US candidates and gave them all careful consideration," says the alleged official statement from the DPRK government. "Supreme Leader has considered all of the choices and has named Donald Trump the official candidate of the DPRK."Republican US presidential candidate Donald Trump has said Kim Jong-Un deserves "credit" for his style of command.

I actually don't see it seems like he was trying or did come into the conclusion of this message "This guy doesn't play games and we can't play games with him. Because he really does have missiles and he really does have nukes."

so what do you think mal?

I think he was saying these things are the start to highlight how dangerous kim jung is.

In a way you could still consider this praise.

How does he do it? By killing his uncle and his family members to retain power.

But I understand what Trump is saying. Such clickbait title.

I think this election may be the one where everyone votes stupidly for the laughs but it actually happens and then the US collapses and will be taught in all history classes around the world of the dangers of universal voting rights.

I think he was praising him but at the same time he really wasn't. Just trying to bring attention to the fact that we can't take Kimmy lightly.

He was just doing one of his usual backhanded compliments. He does this to everyone he is up against.

If people don't want trump to be voted just pay not attention to him. Only reason anyone knows who he is, is cause the media keep putting him on the news.

Hehe yeah, that would be kinda hilarious. Not sure if it would show the dangers of universal voting rights, or uneducation and dumb TV shows.

1) It's fairly clear that Trump was indicating respect for the guy, but at the same time noting that he is an enemy, and that as an enemy worthy of some level of respect, he's not someone to be taken lightly. On this, he's absolutely right. Respect stems from understanding. And only an idiot thinks he has much chance of beating an adversary he don't even understand.
Vast swaths of both the right and left dismiss heads of rogue states as crazy or unhinged, when they're actually very rational, just following a different reasoning. If you don't understand and respect them, you get played by them. Obama is a case in point.

2) It's this kind of BS - the media intentionally misconstruing what was said for the purpose of making him look crazier - that gains him most of his support. If they were "merely" fair to him, his stock would drop precipitously. If he wasn't reported on at all, he'd be off the radar. If anything, the media wants Trump to be the nominee. More click bait for them.

He's a reality show star though. People already know who he is.

I wouldn't say he was praising him, but he does have the bad habit of saying nice things about dictators without first saying bad things about them. I'd be more concerned about what he said about Qaddafi and Putin. (Or the very different things he's said about his daughter, or all Mexican immigrants, but I digress.)

Doesn't even matter.

There's nothing wrong with praising Kim Jong Un. There's nothing wrong with praising Hitler.
It's stupid to think that someone can't do anything right just because 'my country doesn't think they're a good person!', and I'm sure you don't think that.

Trump was referring to Jang Song-thaek, Kim's uncle, who was reportedly stripped naked, thrown into a cage and eaten alive by a pack of hungry dogs, according to an NBC report; however those claims were later dismissed with The Guardian...


You can tell this is a really poor quality article because they go out of their way to mention an event that 100% never happened (was written by some Chinese guy as satire and believed by idiots) just because it makes Kim Jong Un a little bit more scawwy.
