"Kim Jong Un? I can't tell you exactly. Yes, I do have a very good idea, but I can't talk about it now... I do know how he's doing, relatively speaking... You'll probably be hearing it in the not too distant future."
"I do know how he's doing, relatively speaking" — I take that to mean Trump knows relatively more than the reporter. And he has "a very good idea," which suggests he knows quite a bit more than just relatively more than the rest of us. But he "can't talk about it," though to say that is to talk about it.
So what do you think Trump knows — that Kim Jong Un is dead (or in some near-death condition)?

Relative speaking, to me, means relative to life or death.
As a doornail.
I just hope we do not have to live through another episode where the left/dems/LLR-left explode with grief over Little Rocket man like they did with Soleimani all the while openly wishing for Trumps death.
At this point......he's baiting the press!!
How many times was it speculated that Bin Laden was dead? I'll take the "alive" bet here.
"Citing a Chinese medic who is understood to have been sent to Pyongyang to treat the ruler, the magazine suggests a delay to the procedure left him in a grave condition.
But according to other reports, attributed to senior Communist party sources in Beijing, the team was dispatched after the failed heart surgery but arrived too late to save him.
One version claims that a simple procedure to insert a stent went wrong because a North Korean doctor's hands were shaking.
It is reported that Kim was taken to hospital in early April, after he fell down and clutched his chest while on a visit to the countryside."
If Kim is a vegetable, probably it's a cabbage.

Don't worry.
The leftists love his sister.
She will be a hero again just like she was during the Olympics.
If a rocket fell on him, he might be a squash.
A carrot and a tomato were out for a drive and they were in a horrible crash. The carrot was killed instantly but the tomato is a vegetable for life.
Let the conspiracy theorizing begin!
My contribution: Kim Jong Un is in a U.S. hospital being treated for something. While here, he's also taking advantage of being away from his generals and party-loyalty monitors to conduct secret negotiations with the South Korean government, mediated by the U.S. The end of Communism in North Korea will be announced on May Day, 2020.
More likely, of course, we have good intelligence that he's dead, but we aren't saying so publicly either to protect sources and methods or to keep from throwing gasoline on the fire of a power struggle in North Korea. But that's not nearly as much fun.
He's flown the coop, defected and is in hiding practicing his K-Pop dance moves in Seoul.
He's going to let the North Koreans announce it.
Kim lost a bet when somebody guessed his weight.
Perfect answer.
He might be social distancing and cutting his own hair. Now it has to grow back.
What are the odds that the suburban couple from Toledo pushed that red button that stranger dropped off and it whacked Little Rocket Man?
Kim-Jong Uhn died of Coronavirus.
We can just assume it is so at this point.
We need to keep the 3rd derivative positive.
So it may have been a failed heart surgery. But that was a mere co-morbidity.
Its also possible that Little Kim is now in witness protection and living in a modest house on the outskirts of San Diego or Phoenix and having a difficult time with the TV remote.
After Ri Sol-ju's untimely death Kim secretly married one of Trump's relatives.
You are all incorrect. Clearly, the World Police, led by Gary, bumped him off on a dark and stormy night in a dramatic fashion

Nah, if he was dead we'd see a bunch of pictures of him performing feats of strength and press releases detailing how he sexually satisfied an entire battalion of North Korean Army babes over the weekend. He may be at death's door, but he's not dead yet.
"I do know how he's doing, relatively speaking"
Is it possible our intelligence agencies have gone back to spying on our adversaries rather than Republicans?

“The tomato is now a vegetable” works better.
It would be cool beyond measure if he had been killed by a falling meteor...We don't know precisely what happened, but we can be absolutely certain that something happened. It is a known unknown....I believe Indira Gandhi holds the distinction of being the world's first female dictator--not counting all those mad queens of course.
What are the experts telling him (Trump)?
"Hans Brix...is that you?"
CNN said he was near death, so he might be hale and hearty.
I draw no conclusion from Trump's words. He does not want to compromise any intel sources, so he says nothing (as he should).
If Kim is a vegetable, probably it's a cabbage.
And now he's kimchi -- fermented cabbage.
How do you say "pining for the fjords" in Korean?
Madame Mao?
If he only smoked...
South Korea seems eager to deny that he’s dead. Whether this is accurate, a conclusion from poor intelligence, or a deliberate lie is unknown. He is reportedly in Wŏnsan, an area on the east coast where he spent his childhood and has been developing since taking power. 38North reported that satellite imagery has shown a train there since the 21st. North Korea’s proof that he’s alive was a letter dated the 27th. Not exactly persuasive.
My bet: Died of corona plus co-morbidities but the Chinese are covering it up. Trump's saying nothing for some geopolitical reason. "Relatively" means Trump knows Kim is dead but not what happened next.
Relatively speaking might mean more of Kim's relatives are going to turn up dead.
A tomato is a fruit. Not a vegetable. Whether or not Kim is a fruit, I do not know. I'll bet Trump knows. But he ain't talkin'.
Remember the dead spy chief that wasnt.
Godfather
That's why my punchline is better than Hardin's.
No doubt Rocket Runt is taking the room temperature challenge right now.
But he won't be 'dead' till the Norks have their next 'dear leader' lined up.
And Trump knows this.
Well something will turnip and we will know how Rocket Man is doing--or maybe not so good and he'll be planted.
I can't help but read his quote with a smile on my face.
Well it will take nanoseconds for the left to determine this is a terrible thing if Rocket Man Kim dies and that Trump is just too plainly stupid to navigate the shifting player pieces. On that we can rest assured.
A tomato is a fruit. Not a vegetable.
Culinary vs botanical definitions are confusing. Bananas can technically be classified as an herb. And what is and is not a berry still confuses me. I say just stick with the culinary definition.
p.s. Also, all fruits are vegetables
On Saturday the pres was full of reports that he was not going to do any more of these.
I thought it was a wrong decision and am glad that they are continuing. For a number of reasons. Entertainment being one of them.
Now I am wondering about the reports. Were they fake news? Did PDJT actually say he was not going to do any more? Is there any video or tweets of him saying that?
Or is it "sources say" that he is not going to do any more?
Anyone know or am I going to have to do my own research?
John Henry
the tomato may be a vegetable now, after the crash. But it was a fruit and remains a fruit.
So what I want to know is what kind of shenanigans the carrot was up to riding around with this fruit?
John Henry
I thought
He wasn't having a press conference today and then I missed it
I have read that when Stalin had his fatal stroke but before he died, there was some fear by members of the politburo that it was faked.
Stalin was pretending to be in a coma but actually listening to hear what the politburo members were saying. It was a real stroke and he was unconscious, but the politburo didn't know that.
In the Death of Stalin they allude to this by the politburo members standing around the body going "Oh, my! What a catastrophe!" "Our dear leader lying in a puddle of piss. The horror" and so on.
In reality they were scared shitless that he would sit up and roar "Beria take these traitors out and shoot them!"
So if Kim is not really, really, dead, and he wakes up, some may be sorry what they said when they thought he was as good as dead.
If he is still, even just barely, alive, and PDJT starts talking about successors, he's dead and so on, it would screw things up if he wakes up and says "I'm really hungry. You know I had the weirdest dream about these dancing Ghanian men in tuxedos."

"...So what do you think Trump knows — that Kim Jong Un is dead (or in some near-death condition)?"
Since Trump at most times is given to blurting out whatever happens to be on his mind, the most plausible reason for declining to reveal what he knows is that (finally) he doesn't want to reveal classified information that may compromise useful intelligence "sources and methods".
Like the fable of King Midas' barber, the truth will come out sooner or later.

I think Trump has shown he has the discipline to keep his trap shut. It did not go unnoticed by me that Trump could have almost immediately blamed the Iranian's for shooting down the Ukrainian airliner. I'm sure our intel (or other friendly powers) recorded the whole exchange from the launching of russian made missiles to the plane hitting the ground. But Trump held his fire while other intelligence agencies one by one concurred until such time it became undeniable by the Mullahs. That was some fire control discipline I did not think he had in him. I think this will be very much the same. We know. The Chinese know we know. Now sit back and watch it unfold.

Are Biden's videos any more persuasive?
Did you see the latest one where the only Jill speaks and the Slow Joe animetronic figure glared until a bizarre crooked leer kicked in until the "Smile" program fully activated?
@Drago:

I wouldn't know. I avoid them like the plague. I find feeble-minded old men painful to watch. I'm still waiting for someone to put a cyanide tablet in his soft serve.
The roman a clef 'head of state' illustrated how far the british establishment would go on to hold on to power, ala weekend at bernies

In the not to distant future.
So the question remains, is he mostly dead or all dead?
You got it all wrong! He's the newest member of BTS (the world's most successful boy band) and he has no time for this supreme leader malarkey. I hear Dennis Rodman will be joining him on tour.

Fat people aren’t allowed in boy bands in South Korea. I actually briefly met those guys in their pre-debut days when they were doing a show in Thailand. Had I know they were going to take over the world, I would’ve asked for a picture.
Kim is still viable.
My guess is he's on life support and no one wants to pull the plug. The evil sister will pull it when she makes a deal with the high ups there to become the family successor ruler.
NMObjectivist "My guess is he's on life support and no one wants to pull the plug. The evil sister will pull it when she makes a deal with the high ups there to become the family successor ruler."
I didn't even know Biden had a sister.
Her hair smells great!
My sources in North Korea tell me that Little Rocket Man died because something was wrong with his little rocket. Syphilis? Gonorrhea, perhaps?
Is that a little rocket in your pocket, or are you just glad to, oh, forget it.
Kim's CIA code name is Norwegian Blue....
He was a wrong Un.

"My guess is he's on life support and no one wants to pull the plug. The evil sister will pull it when she makes a deal with the high ups there to become the family successor ruler."
Agree. The change in behavior is a clue to me that he is dead or near death. What does he gain from remaining out of sight and otherwise silent amid rumors and reports of his death? This is a guy that is leader for life and has never been shy about huffing and puffing about himself and NKorea.
Dead.
He's just havin' a kip.
From Insty: Kim is like Schrödinger's cat, neither alive nor dead until someone actually makes an observation.
Don't care.
I know. He is the Dems Presidential Candidate in waiting meant to replace Biden. The delay forging the Hawaiian Birth Certificate takes time to do right. For now he is living at Nancy Pelosi’s house eating ice cream.
A tomato is a fruit. Not a vegetable.
A tomato is the fruit of a vegetable.
fify!
if a tomato is not a vegetable, it must be either: an animal, or a mineral
All fruits ARE vegetables
We now know the world isn't just one of either animal, vegetable (plant), or mineral — there's also bacterial, archaeal, and even viral.
He’s hiding from some Korean Karen
- Krumhorn
They're just buying time for Dennis Rodman to take office. Obviously.
"Un Dead"
Kim Jong Uh-OH.
We do not know about Kim Jong Un, but we do know that Generalissimo Francisco Franco is still dead.
If he is dead, the big question I have is, how will the news media blame Trump?
Sure. He's had a mild to midrange heart attack with a side of Covid. But he's still alive.
All the intrigue, all the maneuvering is to keep the conspirators guessing and discourage a coup. The sister is loyal to him so she's playing along to create the illusion that she's preparing to ascend the throne, or has already. The internal opposition is probably more afraid of her than of the doughboy.
Or he's getting some work done, maybe on the chins. Or 28 days at the Pyongyang Hazelden.
