Maryland Governor Claims President Trump Does Not Like Dealing with President Moon

The fact that President Trump does not like dealing with President Moon should come as no surprise. The other claim from the governor is that Trump said Koreans were “terrible”:

U.S. President Donald Trump told governors in February that he doesn’t like dealing with South Korean President Moon Jae-in and thinks the South Korean people are “terrible,” Maryland Gov. Larry Hogan said Thursday.

Hogan, a Republican, wrote in The Washington Post that Trump had harsh words for South Korea, the birthplace of the governor’s wife, Yumi, during a private dinner sponsored by the Republican Governors Association.

“I don’t remember him mentioning the virus,” Hogan said, “but he talked about how much he respected President Xi Jinping of China; how much he liked playing golf with his buddy ‘Shinzo,’ Prime Minister Abe of Japan; how well he got along with North Korean dictator Kim Jong Un.

“Then, the jarring part,” he continued. “Trump said he really didn’t like dealing with President Moon from South Korea. The South Koreans were ‘terrible people,’ he said, and he didn’t know why the United States had been protecting them all these years. ‘They don’t pay us,’ Trump complained.”

Hogan is a pro-abortion, pro-illegal-immigrant dude who thought he could run against Trump and got his tail-feathers singed. He’s not a serious person. Both AoSHQ and Twitchy had write-ups about him this week.

” it sounds like Trump wasn’t saying Korean in general are “terrible”, but the Koreans in the government are terrible”

How do you know? Were you there?

“Hogan is a pro-abortion..”

What about Trump’s niece? Bolton? Gen James Mattis? Nikki Haley? Rex Tillerson? John F Kelly? HR MacMaster? The long list of those who fell out of favor is growing by the day. All these Republicans who were either fired or resigned due to conflict with their president.. are they all flawed as well? So it’s not Trump that has the flaws?

Beijing boy appears to have srial fantasies about successful men like real estate moguls with a successful TV careers and attractive families that he will never have. A very tragic case.

To properly analyze that, we will need to turn the case over to internationally-renowned Dr. Chickenhead.

We can only hope it’s not too late.

When non-Americans complain about Trump, it means he is doing a great job for America and Americans.

Conversely, they couldn’t get enough of that Obama shining the global knob.

Isn’t it amazing that every time Trump says something, his supporters have to try to translate to the rest of us what he really meant LOL
