Kristen Holmes: Question About North Korea Is ‘Real and Justifiable’ at a Time When Trump’s Foreign Policy Is ‘Completely Spiraling’
RUSH EXCERPT:
HOLMES: “And erin, there‘s precedent for this. That‘s why this question is so important. President Trump there saying that he had had some kind of communication or opened the door to communication with Kim Jong UN. And then shortly afterwards, this announcement that they were scaling back the military exercises with our ally, South Korea. I‘m going to bring you back several months to when Zelenskyy was coming to the White House. And the day before, we knew Zelenskyy was going to ask for patriot missiles. The day before, President Trump talked to president Putin. And because of that phone call the next day, he denied giving Zelenskyy patriot missiles, citing conversations that he had had with Vladimir Putin. So this is a real and justifiable question. There‘s also an issue about how this pertains overall to the other crisis that he is facing, which is this war in Iran. The idea that North Korea has been stockpiling illegal nuclear weapons. What message is that sending to Iran that he is willing to support North Korea in this, as they stockpile these illegal nuclear weapons, or at least look the other way? Now, all of this is coming at a point where President Trump seems to be at least foreign policy wise, completely spiraling. And that is likely due to what we are seeing here at home. There is no end in sight to this war in Iran.”
