Trump cracks ‘fat joke’, gets priceless response from Kim at Singapore summit
SINGAPORE, JUN 13 (DNA) – United States President Donald Trump left Kim Jong Un frowning after he apparently cracked a joke at the North Korean leader asking photographers to make the two leaders look ‘thin and handsome’ before their working lunch at the historic Singapore summit on Tuesday.
“Getting a good picture everybody? So we look nice and handsome and thin, and perfect,” said the US president to photographers and cameramen covering the event.
The camera then rolls back, in the video of the moment that has gone viral on social media, and shows Kim as he listens to the translation. Reacting to the remarks, Kim looked let’s just say not bursting with joy as camera zoomed in on his face.
The clip went viral with one Twitter commentator comparing the episode to an awkward scene from “The Office”, a hit British comedy series that was later reproduced in the US.
It doesn’t appear as if Kim missed the joke as Trump’s remarks can be seen being translated by an interpreter present on the occasion.
This is not the first time Trump aimed a joke at his North Korean counterpart as the US president also taunted Kim in November last year, saying he would never call him “short and fat”.
