The rumor is that North Korean leader Kim Is Jong is dead or a vegetable, and this that his sister, Kim Yo Jong is taking over the country.
Back in 2018 during the Olympics, I covered the media’s fawning love affair with Kim Yo Jong.
Well, brave yourselves to see it again. We’re getting a preview from a few people on the Left, but the news of Kim Is Jong’s death isn’t official yet.
North Korea is going to have a Woman leader before the United States of America! Let that sink in!

Yo Jong wasn’t elected. She is the grand daughter of the man who appointed himself supreme leader, who gained and held power by killing between 1.6 and 3.5 million people and plunging a nation into totalitarian tyranny and grueling poverty.
Never mind that her father and older brother maintained the family’s power through persecution and mass murder. Never mind that she has been known to call for the execution of people by anti aircraft gun.
Nope. She’s a woman and is going to be a woman leader before America has a woman president and that’s ALL that matters.
America is worse than North Korea because we didn’t have the female progeny of genocidal dictators ascend to power without and election.
Of course I’m going to be reminded about the first axiom of politics.
If Obama killed all of his opponents and made Malia empress for life, CNN and MSNBC would have called it a wise move.
If Trump sommuch as endorsed Ivanka to run for Congress, we’d hear non stop about political dynasties as an existential threat to America.
Frankly I’m getting really fucking tired of that God damn axiom.
Every Lefty who praises North Korea for having a female leader before the US needs to be taken out into a field and shot with a fucking anti aircraft gun the way the Kim family loves to do. If North Korea is so great and Woke, they should experience the North Korean system first hand.
What if a “Lefty” bragged about the love letters he received from that new NoKo supreme leader? And tossed around how infamously well they were getting along…like the U.S. loved making friends with ruthless tyrants?
JFC, guys. Do you ever once consider how hypocritical your standards are and how duplicitous you come off?
There’s a big difference between the President who is being forced to interact with the leaders of other countries and a bunch of effete Leftists fawning over a despot.
I saw through that schtick when the media was hyping it like Trump was a traitor. Kim Il Jong was a spoiled, narcissistic, man-child.
Trump knew he could catch more flies with honey by buttering Kim up with praise than threatened him with sanctions. All the sanctions do is hurt the poor in NK. The Kim family doesn’t suffer from sanctions.
That strategy worked and major steps towards ending NK as a nuclear threat were made. It might have been distasteful but it was effective.
I severely doubt Trump had any genuine like for Kim or NK.
He sized up Kim Kim perfectly and manipulated him in negotiation with masterful skill.
If it was a Democrat, Karl would be praising him for his diplomacy.
But, if Trump had taken a hard line, Karl would be condemning him.
Kim Yo Jong is basically a younger, asian version of Hillary who doesn’t have to hide her sociopathy and bloodlust. It’s no wonder she’s the envy of the Left/Liberals.
“If Trump sommuch as endorsed Ivanka to run for
Congresscity council of Boise, Idaho, we’d hear non stop about political dynasties as an existential threat to America.”Fixed it for you.
They’d probably run unironically commercials for their next Kennedy Family hagiography in between segments of the talking heads denouncing Ivanka’s city council bid too.
“ they should experience the North Korean system first hand.”: Otto Warmbier…
I don’t remember any of this crap when Israel, the UK, Germany, the Phillipines, India, etc… all elected a woman to be their executive.
Wonder why?
(Just kidding, I know exactly why.)
Because these countries ( except for the Philippines, debateably ) had capable female heads of state ?
Hand to god, I’ve had lefty acquaintances tell me that Theresa May was the first real woman to be prime minister of the United Kingdom. Baroness Thatcher didn’t count because she was a conservative.
Poor little lefty nearly had a meltdown (like one of the androids in the old Star Trek episode) when I pointed out that May and Thatcher were members of the same party.
I was also going to explain the No True Scotsman fallacy to them, but my husband gave me The Look so I pivoted into a conversation about Marvel movies with someone else at the party.
The one good thing you can say about sister Kim is that she doesn’t need a paper bag.
“ they should experience the North Korean system first hand.”
So, you mean to tell us that, at least in Michigan, it hasn’t been a month of Venezuela (oops! I mean North Korea!) Lite?
Just another situation where the Left’s Leftist Dictator fetish outs itself.
Of course, we’re seeing a fair bit of it here, via various Democrat Petty Tyrants.
Go long on Leftist Wank Socks! I anticipate a bull market!
