Kim Jong Un Near Death?

[RavinDave]

What would the next steps be?

I think most leaders want to see NoKo explain his absence or death (as the case may be) before they make any public statements about it. I know I would.

 

[Volsfaninva917]

Why can't he say?

Maybe they're still verifying?

Just seems like there is something significant (positive) going on leading to a big announcement about NK and the US. Just a guess.

His death isn’t necessarily a good thing for us or the people of North Korea

I didn’t really get that sense, other than if he’s dead that could be viewed as a positive for the US.

Hasn’t his sister been reported to be more brutal than he is?

You think maybe she offed him to seize power?

Guess I'm cynical from three years of this, but when he says, "I know but I'm not saying" my BS meter goes off.

Agree, I think he is alive and well. Just a hunch. Trump knows also.

Understandably so, Trump operates in chaos, talks out of both sides of his face and is the least tactful president of all time.

Well my BS meter is usually pegged out before they get to the press’ question period anyways.

Andrew Johnson was supposedly fairly intolerable as well, but you might be right.

Damn I'm not that old lol

Wouldn’t doubt it. China could’ve told her to. I believe Kim had a brother that he had killed in Malaysia a couple of years ago.

That’s a bloodthirsty bunch in that particular Kim clan over there for sure.

Oh yeah. Was it a half brother? Idk.

Also an uncle IIRC.

Yep. Put him at point blank range in front of an artillery gun. Sick bastard.

Was he? Obviously people didn't like his policy, but was his personality grating?

 

[GordonC]

Yes, apparently. But he was a polarizing individual, and it's hard to know what is true and what's not.
Here's a decent (non-scholarly) read in the Atlantic

I thought I read he had some degree of homespun charisma, but maybe not.

 

[Mick]

Is it plausable they're afraid of a humanitarian crisis and are trying to keep this squashed?

I've always thought he was probably in a bunker somewhere trying to avoid the outbreak.

Trump all but said Kim Jong Un hasn't written anything the anybody for weeks! Basically presuming Kim Jong Un was in no conscious state to even perform such an act.
