    I’d be okay with him going into exile in North Korea.

    yeah. let him torture Kim for a while.

      The realistic conclusion to that would be Trump spilling Top Secret info to North Korea. If not willingly, then via torture. But let’s be honest: It would probably be willingly.

        Honestly, I don’t think he has the awareness or attention span to be an accurate mole if he’s limited to working from memory.

          Lol absolutely. Can you imagine Trump trying to recite government intel from memory?

          “So the document said bigly assets were all all over the country. My uncle, college professor in the nuclear — Hillary! Can you believe that, folks? Hillary. Johnathan Trump, went to MIT did the thing, this and that. Tremendous, it was tremendous this government secrets I am telling you now.”

            And as he’s saying it, his voice just keeps getting softer, like he’s telling you a bedtime story.

        This actually highlights one of the problems (as a strategy, ignoring humanitarian concerns) with torture- whether or not someone will break has nothing to do with whether they have real, useful information. Once they break, they will say whatever they think their captors want to hear.

        The primary (strategic) alternative is to befriend them; convince them you’re on their side. A tactic that has been shown to be extremely effective on Trump. He’ll gladly spill whatever he thinks he knows as soon as they say something nice about him.

        Good point. We should maybe abduct both of them, and turn it into a reality tv show. Like The Truman Show. but real.

          Nope, he would absolutely thrive on something like that; anything less than consignment to the dustbin of obscurity is too good for him.

        Probably. But, like. just hear me out. They’d hate each other’s guts. It’d be like Grumpy Old Men, except they’re not fighting over a woman, and they were never actually friends.

              “-4. Huh.” – North Korean caddy

              Yeah, good point. I’m guessing Trump would be the sober one so he’d probably be a little more subtle about… no, this is an unsolved problem. I think we need to get them together and see what happens.

              “Guys, what would really impress your long dead fathers and finally make them love you is if you both bare knuckle boxed, but in a bear pit. You can take the bear on together first or let the winner do it. That would be so cool.”
