A reader remarks on Kim Jong-un’s needs:
Interesting idea but I don’t think Kim will go for it. He obviously doesn’t care about his people or the country’s welfare. His ego requires constant stroking, not unlike 45’s. That, coupled with paranoia, is what drives him. Again, not unlike 45.
Yet his paranoia is not unjustified, given the belligerent tone of the United States and others over the decades. Add in the failure of the United States to continue agreements begun in the Clinton era, and to call him paranoid is to suggest his concerns are unjustified – an argument which I believe is unsustainable.
