The parents of Otto Warmbier issued a statement Friday calling Kim Jong Un responsible for the death of their son and implicitly criticizing President Donald Trump, who asserted the North Korean leader was unaware of the American student’s mistreatment while in captivity.
"Some really bad things happened to Otto — some really, really bad things. But he tells me he didn't know about it, and I will take him at his word," Trump, referring to Kim, told reporters at the end of the leaders’ two-day summit.
How 'bout we build a wall to keep Trump out on his next superfluous trip abroad?
Sad, such compassion to family. But WHY did parents let Trump use them at the State of Union? Why were they Trump's guests, symbolically supporting Trump then? Terrible what happened to Otto, but still don't be used by this maniac POTUS!
Otto Warmbier had a severe HEADACHE. It can be a clue to solve his death, but everybody ignored it, even his parents.
Otto’s parents are right. Kim & NK are to blamed for his death due to unfair jailing and mistreatment. Trump’s defense of Kim on this murder is shameful, to say the least
We all empathize with Ottos parents; but what do you want the President to do? He working on peace so this doesn’t happen again!
Are they getting calls for an interview from Fox News? Is a story about standing up for an American victim of any interest to them?
Waiting for the Trump attack on Otto Warmbier's parents to begin.....
Trump brought their son home ..they're grateful and your fake news.. so ..
Those poor parents, getting pulled into your guys smear agenda again. Trump is trying to create a trusting relationship with Kim, if it was easy to do, why didn't the other Presidents do it?
Dear Mr and Mrs Warmbier, I’m so sorry this has happened. That you are having your sons death once again discussed internationally is an embarrassment I can’t even imagine and it breaks my heart. I support your view of what occurred to Otto. Regrettably. SRM
I can't WAIT to hear Trump's walk-back on his disasterous handling of Otto Warmbier's murder at the hands of dictator Kim Jong Un. Trump continues to fail. Relying on his gut, he successfully displayed both his lack of loyalty to America while trashing Otto Warmbier's name.
My heart goes out to Otto’s parents.What was done to Otto is INEXCUSABLE.We must do all in our powers to keep Americans safe.Wish we could go back in time to save Otto.I do believe that if DJT had been President Otto would still be alive today.realDonaldTrump foxandfriends
Imagine: The only person on the face of the Earth will to accept the word of a viscous murderer is the President of the United States. Not even a bad novelist would make this up.
takes a certain kind a loser to hank out in NK anyway
Donald Trump is like the women who write to serial killers in prison. He admires in Kim Jong Un what they admirer in mass murderers, and he gets just as excited.
Trump cares about a foreign dictator’s feelings than he does about those of s grieving American family. Oh yeah, but maga, right? 🙄
Trump used them and then discarded them to pile on his love for Kim. Who doesn’t understand that he’s looking for the enrichment of the trump family. He figures he can build in N K along with Russia and wherever else he praises autocrats.
I am so sorry these parents have to relive this nightmare again at the hand of realDonaldTrump
What was he doing in North Korea?
They are very grateful to President Trump. It was Obama that sat on his thumb and did nothing.
Trumps loyalty extends about as far as his 2-inch mushroom penis.
Good -- This was forgotten about much too quickly
