North Korean propaganda film exuberantly positive about future relations.

We now see the message that goes with the photography we saw being taken by all the propagandists that accompanied Kim's meeting with Trump at the DMZ. In the United States and elsewhere it was expected and reported that the usual message was produced, one of lauding the excellence of Kim and diminishment of Trump but that turned out to be 100% wrong. Instead the propaganda by North Korea is one of respect and admiration for Trump and positive expectation for both Koreas.

Ooooh, that's got to just kill the Washington establishment.

The video is so brutally propagandistic that it's hard to watch even though it is exuberantly positive. They completely overdo it. Way overboard. I made it halfway through before giving up. Maybe mute would be better.  Maybe you can do better. The point is, Trump in his way is achieving more than any previous United States president.


Kind of fun to see the photos by the photographers we saw there. We even see shots of the photographers then the photography they shot.

One thing is clear by the montage; the undeveloped beauty of North Korea is truly something to behold similar to Cuba. American naturalists that went to Cuba to study birds were astounded by the bounty that is available there because human economic development is stalled.  The same thing is true for North Korea. Naturalists become divided because they know the lack of development and the pathetic pay of Cuban experts with experience greater than themselves is due to horrible politics, the same thing that allows so many birds in raw nature that would be developed under a more humanistic political system so they end up seeing the positive within the absence of human economic development and appreciating that more than they appreciate good solid humanistic political system. They're genuinely torn because their own human condition is so great by comparison to Cuban experts while their own birds to study are lessened by development. They say all this in places like The Smithsonian magazine.

Previously.


American news either neglected or misreported this entire episode. It's impossible for them to give Trump credit where it is due. Trump credit simply does not compute.  If you are being informed by American news then you're doing poorly. It's propaganda such as seen in North Korea except a little bit more subtle. But not by much.

I love the NK newsbabe. There would be a feminist model if you really want to supress sexiness.

The point of the Trump visit was go give Kim exactly that cover with the generals who would be inclined to kill him if he made peace. To show them that their hand is not as strong as they might think.

Kim has to pay off lots of people with favors in proportion to how much trouble they could cause him. That's the real hangup. The new deal has to be better for all those people as well as Kim, lest they kill him.

Donald on Kim: "I'll make a capitalist of him yet!"

Looks like Trump has the Red Chinese really over a barrel if they're letting this out.

It's simply called winning. Next up, Trump needs to talk to Kim about that hair cut. Geez!
