The U.S. president was gifted a crown just weeks after posting an AI-generated videos showing himself wearing a crown to mock nationwide ‘No Kings’ protests
FFS, “Silla was a Korean kingdom that existed between 57 BCE – 935 CE”, this is a priceless national treasure. And it’s been given to a toddler.
Yeah, people are focusing on in the symbolism of the crown as a gift and ignoring how insane it is to give a priceless historical artifact to an erratic foreign leader. How is that even something a Korean politician can give in the first place?
Edit: It’s a replica. Goddamnit Independent. That’s sort of an important distinction to note.
I’m so glad it’s a replica!!! Thanks for your investigating it. I’m sure dementia don is quite happy with it. smh.
Couldn’t they have made a new crown from scratch? God, really??? I hope they’ll at least place it in a museum
He should try it on. For the photos!
This has got to be South Korea trolling the US populace.
He can join Andrew Lee in the Clown Prince club.
Whoever tf is writing the future needs to stop being so heavy handed with the metaphors.
From the article:
I’d like to wear it right now. Thank you so much.
Stop capitulating to him ffs! There’s no point in giving gifts to a rancid narcissist that’s going to fuck you over anyway!
Trump has lot of bootlickers leaders

He’ll wear it while eating burger king
