It’s being reported that Donald Trump had Mike Pompeo give Kim Jong Un a copy of an Elton John CD with the “Rocket Man” song on it. Pompeo was in North Korea for further negotiations.
Secretary of State Mike Pompeo reportedly brought a CD with the Elton John song “Rocket Man” to give as a gift to North Korean leader Kim Jong Un during his visit to the country.
Pompeo arrived in North Korea on Friday amid talks between the two countries over denuclearizing North Korea.
Pompeo brought two gifts for Kim, including a letter from President Trump and the CD, according to The Chosun Ilbo, a top newspaper in South Korea.
Last year, amid escalating rhetoric between the two countries, Trump repeatedly referred to Kim as “Rocket Man” and “Little Rocket Man.”
There’s conflicting reports on this, but it would not surprise me if this were true. If it is in fact true, it is definitely a good gesture and tells Kim that all the trash talk is now water under the bridge.
Pompeo spoke with reporters and said that the talks are going fairly well but there are still some challenges that need to be overcome. There’s going to be additional talks next week regarding the logistics of having the remains of American soldiers returned. Overall, it sounds like things are going pretty well despite the negativity being spread in the Jew-run fake news media.
