Jim Acosta on Trump/Kim Jong Un Meeting: It Seemed Like Almost a Bromance to Me

‘They seemed to get along well’

EXCERPT:

ACOSTA: “Well, that was fascinating. That was another one of those opportunities that it was a host TV spray. Some people don’t understand what the difference is between us and host TV. This was the Singapore government camera people who were allowed to witness this moment, but obviously what we heard from talking to officials there is that Kim Jong-un was very curious about the presidential limousine, 'The Beast'. And so the President there taking him on a tour of it. It is interesting to hear some of the talk about how close Donald Trump and Kim Jong-un were during this entire experience. It seemed like almost a bromance to me, almost like he had with Emanuel Macron a few weeks ago during that state visit. They seemed to get along really well and it's no surprise to me that afterwards the President said that he feels that Kim Jong-un is a very talented man and he was talking about how they have this excellent relationship and I think that was on display.”
