Trump: I took Kim at his word over Otto Warmbier's torture
At times like this it is some consolation that it was the Electors who chose him; the voters chose Hillary.
Donald Trump has said he took Kim Jong-un “at his word” when he denied any responsibility in the imprisonment and torture of Otto Warmbier that led to the US student’s death in 2017.
“Some really bad things happened to Otto,” Trump said.
“But Kim tells me that he didn’t know about it and I will take him at his word.”
Although Kim wields tremendous power in one of the world’s last totalitarian regimes, Trump said he believed the North Korean leader was not aware of Warmbier’s imprisonment in January 2016 and torture in jail until it was too late.
“I don’t believe he knew about it. He felt very badly about it, I did speak to him. He knew about it, but he knew about it after,” Trump said.
North Korea, he went on, was a “big country” with “a lot of people in those prisons and the camps – there are some bad people”.
