'Getting along with Russia is good' - Trump --Engaging positively with such countries as Russia and North Korea is a "smart" thing to do, the former U.S. president says | 31 Aug 2024 | Engaging with Russia and North Korea, and "getting along" with them, would be a "good thing," former U.S. President Donald Trump has argued. Speaking at an election rally in Pennsylvania on Friday, the Republican nominee touted his diplomatic efforts to fix Washington's ties with Pyongyang, referring to his 2019 meeting with North Korean leader Kim Jong-un in the demilitarized zone separating the two Koreas."I got along with Kim Jong-un of North Korea. Remember I walked over...the first person to ever walk over from this country," Trump claimed. "We also looked at his nuclear capability. It's very substantial," he added. "You know, getting along is a good thing. It's not a bad thing." "Getting along" with Moscow is also not "a bad thing," Trump said. He went on to harshly criticize the incumbent administration, claiming Joe Biden has a very low IQ "and maybe now it's nonexistent," as he has "completely lost his mind." [If he had one to lose.]
