Un is his name, so what if I didn't call him Kim.
I have a first middle and last name.
Un is the family name.
A bit pedantic considering that is petty considering the topic. Kim Jong "UN" deserves to be called a fucking dick.
The point of my post is to point out Trump's impetuous unpredictable bombastic behavior is hypocritical considering whom he is commenting on.
We call Trump by his last name too. Trump's first name is Donald.

Uh, no. Kim is his family name. His given name is Jong Un, often hyphenated as Jong-Un. It has become customary in English to render the names of East Asian peoples except Japanese living in their name lands in in their proper traditional order of family name first, followed by given name.
However, it remains customary to render East Asian names of people residing in the west in the traditional western order of given name first, followed by family name.

Ok, still, thank you for the correction. I guess that is simply a lifetime of media putting it that way. Lots of non English languages seem backwards to people in the west.
But none of that has anything to do with Trump being a bombastic unpredictable jackass.
Kim, Trump, both unpredictable assholes who vilify dissent and any media that doesn't kiss their ass.
The only think stopping Trump for now, from looking like the Kim family, is we still have a constitution in place. But he is doing everything he can to destroy it.

I just read that there will not be an autopsy.

ABC Evening News reports Ohio coroner is investigating the death?
The granting of a pardon is an imputation of guilt, and the acceptance a confession of it.

I guess the family has declined. From what I understand the investigation will be of the medical records et al collected prior to death.

Yeah, I don't think the Obama administration could've prevented him from being murdered by North Korea.
Getting a soon-to-be-corpse ain't a highmark for anyone, not even Trump.

My thoughts are with his family.
I'm honestly at a loss of what further action, short of war, can be taken against North Korea.
I still think that international pressure on China to do something about their unstable ally on the doorstep is the best move. But China will likely just ignore it anyway.
It really is too bad we don't have the technology to put a dome around the imperial residence as portrayed by Stephen King.
