Some Twitter subscribers saw this staged event in a different light:

Democratic Congressman Don Beyer from Virginia called out what he saw as Republican hypocrisy on North Korea. "While GOP politicians scream 'socialist' at us for wanting workers to have a living wage and health care, Trump is befriending a real-life communist dictator whose regime tortured and murdered Otto Warmbier and stockpiles nuclear weapons," tweeted Beyer.

Others questioned Trump's priorities, when the president has been so eager to call out his critics, like U.S. Women's National Team co-captain Megan Rapinoe, but was willing to do a meet-and-greet with Kim. "Donald Trump came down harder on Megan Rapinoe for speaking than he did on Kim Jong-un for literally killing Otto Warmbier," wrote user Andrea Junker.

Joyce Alene, a former federal prosecutor, noted that Trump has repeatedly acted warmly and conferred legitimacy on Kim. "Trump endorsing American citizen Otto Warmbier's murderer. Again," tweeted Alene.

Donnie “The Appeaser” Trump.

If ANY Democratic president had even conceived of this, appeasing a nation that technically we are still engaged in an armed conflict with, Republican heads would explode at such a rate as to darken the skies over DC for years to come.
