There is so much irony in this situation that I can't possibly take it seriously, but this is the same guy who, at a MAL banquet, bragged during dessert that each guest was served one scoop of ice cream, but "I get two scoops because I'm the president."  Do bear in mind that DT wants to build a seaside resort in NK, which was one of the motivations of that visit he paid to Kim during his previous term; I would suspect this gets a lot more coverage in South Korea than it does in the US, which is close to nil.  SK can mock him because they know he will not let the North conquer the whole peninsula.

Can we call him "The Burger King" now?

 

 

Gawd I wish he would build a seaside resort in n Korea lol with that freezing water and the tidal currents in that part of the world lmao yea Donnie great idea!!

  • They have a sense of humour, he doesn’t real realize they’re poking fun at him.

    In this case, the South Korean authorites were in a quandary... What to give the man who has everything? A crown was the obvious choice. A brilliant solution - both for those who love h

  • That's way better than the Burger King Crown he's used to...

Yes.  He has a very good mind, he said so himself.

 

Headline should read "Seoul Royally Roasts Trump"
A lot of hidden meaning in that crown.

The Silla Dynasty ended in 935 CE when its last king, Gyeongsun, peacefully surrendered to Wang Geon of the Goryeo kingdom. The dynasty's decline was caused by increasing corruption, heavy taxes, and a weakening of central control, which led to peasant revolts and the rise of rival states during the period known as the Later Three Kingdoms

 

Cause of decline: A period of increasing corruption and greed in the late Silla dynasty led to higher taxes, neglect of infrastructure, and a decline in the living standards for peasants.

Rise of rivals: The resulting unrest and weakening of central authority led to the creation of new, competing states, such as Later Baekje and Later Goguryeo (later renamed Goryeo), within Silla's former territory.

Sound familiar? 

The Koreans knew exactly what they were saying by presenting him with that particular crown

South Korea is trolling the Libs. 😄

 

They have a great sense of humour as anyone who has watched S.Korean TV will know. 

 

Do you watch "S.Korean TV" with the subtitles turned off?

 

Thought not.

That's awesome.

 

Are they available in Thai branches? Asking for a friend...

 

Yes they are and have been for quite a few years already.

 

Of course, if you lived in Thailand, you wouldn't have asked such a redundant question.

In other words, you don't really care about living in a deeply nationalistic and conservative society often ruled by a military Junta and with well documented human rights issues as long as the service is cheap. Got it.

 

Now, back to calling Trump a fascist from your favourite haunt. 😄

So, in your mind ... one or the other? trump policies/actions cannot be condemned because ... I can not afford to have a working middle class retirement in my own country?
