In terms of the truth or morality of praising Kim, no. But it's not as if there is no logic: Venezuela has an active opposition, NK doesn't, so we are dealing w/the existing regime. I don't agree with the latter, but as a matter of realpolitik, it's a strategy. https://twitter.com/BenjySarlin/status/1109158308970139649 …

What I don't understand, why doesn't Maduro just talk about Trump's incredible victory or savvy business acumen or whatever. US troops would be fighting to put down the Venezuelan opposition in 2 weeks.

Um, Trump is the president and standard bearer of the GOP. And 99% of Republicans (both politicians and pundits) ignore his extravagant praise of Kim. So you are all implicated in it.

I, like a whole lot of people on my side, have been publicly appalled by his praise of Kim, and publicly disagreed with it as recently as...this thread. My point is just that there *is* a strategy, even if it's a terrible one repeating Obama/W/Clinton failures in Korea.
