Mulvaney Excuses Trump Professing His Love For Brutal Dictators: 'How Is That Ever A Bad Thing?'
Anyone think the propagandists over on Fox "News" would be this forgiving if it was a Democratic administration that did this?

Trump's acting chief of staff Mick Mulvaney was asked on this weekend's Fox News Sunday whether or not Trump is still "in love" with brutal North Korean dictator Kim Jong-un following the news this week that the dictator executed a senior envoy involved in nuclear negotiations with the U.S. as well as four other high-level officials.
Mulvaney refused to verify the reports, or directly answer whether Trump is still "in love" with Kim, but defended the rhetoric regardless of whether the reports are true or not:
