Good news this week as North Korea freed three imprisoned Americans in anticipation of the Trump/Kim meeting scheduled for June. As usual, for our Pr*sident, it was all about him.
Because if he can't compare himself to Obama, then what's the point?
But here's the thing.
The "past" Administration couldn't have been asking for the return of the three hostages because two of them had been imprisoned since Trump became President. Yes, he couldn't even tell the truth about something that was positive without wrongly slamming President Obama.
What's more, during the Obama Administration, eleven Americans were released from North Korea. But President Obama didn't have TV events to publicize it. Why? Because past Presidents have felt that subjecting newly freed prisoners to public scrutiny could be traumatic.
But Trump doesn't care about them, it's all about him. He had a three AM tarmac meeting to greet them, of course with the cameras rolling. Because without the cameras, there's no point.
