Trump Issues Statement on Joint Military Exercises with South Korea

Based on my very good relationship with Kim Jong Un, of North Korea, I am not happy with the fact that the United States has, long ago, agreed to participate in Joint Military Exercises with South Korea. These exercises are not only costly, with much of these costs paid for by the United States of America (as usual!), but send a signal that is totally inappropriate and hostile, to a Country that, as long as Donald J. Trump has been President, has been unthreatening and respectful. Therefore, and based on the fact that it is too late to cancel, I have instructed Secretary of War, Pete Hegseth, to substantially reduce the Joint Military Exercises! While somewhat unrelated (?), I recently asked the President of South Korea if they would like to join us in the Denuclearization of the Islamic Republic of Iran, and they said, “No thanks!” Thank you for your attention to this matter. President DONALD J. TRUMP

Pumping up North Korea/Kim and shitting on South Korea in the same post is not a good look. WTF Trump

Rather have Kim as prez than any Dem. If Trump says he’s okay then he is okay, SIMPLE AS THAT

Did he ask Kim Jong Un? Seems that "very good relationship" might have its limitations...

Trump is retarded, and so are his supporters on this board.
And so I can defeat the dumbass “what about” arguments that always get thrown around here, yes Kamala and Joe were retarded too. Surprisingly, two things can be true.

A+ satire, but probably too subtle for this site

SK has been our ally for 75 years and we’ve been doing these exercises in some form or another for 50.
At a time when Trump could really use a coalition of allys, it’s pretty on brand for him to continue burning bridges every chance he gets.

And there it is... Trump being the teenage girl he is.
Wait til he starts throwing his own team under the bus for the clusterfrick in Iran. Its the reason he kept emphasizing JD was leading the negotiations months ago, so he has plausible deniability when it doesn't work out.

No Presidents over 65.
This is becoming dangerous.

The end of his term can’t come quick enough. Total loser.

His statement would've been FAR more effective if he had just left out everything about KJU/North Korea. All he had to do was say that these military exercises are expensive and South Korea recently made it clear that they would not help us against Iran, but since it's too late to cancel we won't be spending our money to make this exercise anything but bare bones.
He had no reason to include any of the NK stuff or praising Kim there. It's just not a good look when you're actively at war to prevent Iran from becoming the next North Korea and the Ayatollah from becoming Kim Jong in importance and threat.
This is bad Trump. Social media/Truth has been the worst thing for his second term. It's where he's made all of his Iran blunders, threats, promises, and bluffs that have made the war a joke to the Iranian leaders. His presidency would be going 100x better if not for his social media

100%
Less money on military exercises? Most people would agree.

Voted for him 3x, but he needs to be removed. It gets worse every day. At some point we’ll have zero allies. Being a complete and open bully while espousing a communist dictator is a bad bad look.

I support this because South Korea didn’t support us. Every ally should take note.

Nobody believes you. Next time don’t even put this.

Please name the allies that have supported us in this conflict with Iran.

Removing training isn’t being a bully. You are a weak individual.

You literally cry everyday that we are running out of munitions now you are crying because we aren’t going to waste more for a country who doesn’t support us. Honk honk.

Wow.
He didn’t say that.
If he did…
He didn’t mean that.
And it’s great that he said that now that he did say that.
