Chris Wallace: Trump Giving Cover to Kim on Murder of Otto Warmbier Was a ‘Completely Unforced Error’

‘Why on Earth would you side with Kim Jong-Un over the Warmbier family?’

EXCERPT:

SMITH: "The White House sticking by the president words that he is taking Kim Jong-un at his word that he didn’t know at the time. But does indeed hold North Korea responsible for Otto Warmbier’s death."
WALLACE: "This strikes me as just a completely unforced error by the president and the White House. Why on an issue like this -- there is no question that Otto Warmbier was brutally tortured, basically killed by the North Koreans. Why on Earth would you side with Kim Jong-un over the Warmbier family and the sense of outrage? I mean, first of all, there is a real question whether the captivity and -- and -- and the incarceration of an American is something that the dictator of North Korea wouldn’t know about. But even if that’s true why would you want to get into this fight? The fact is that North Korean regime was responsible.”
