@pbsnews: Why does President Donald Trump praise authoritarian leaders, like North Korea's Kim Jong Un, while showing contempt for traditional U.S. allies, like Canada? "Donald Trump values power," The Atlantic's Ashley Parker told Washington Week moderator Jeffrey Goldberg. "He is a bully on the world stage, and it's sort of a 'game respects game.' He likes these strong men. He likes the control that a dictator has over his or her country." Washington Week with The Atlantic is a partnership between PBS News, WETA and @theatlantic, airing every Friday on PBS stations nationwide.

He's such an embarrassment. How anyone can still support him is unbelievable.

The only two he doesn’t go after is Putin and Kim- (dictators) he is an unstable idiot that needs to be locked up. Putin and Kim think Trump is a joke. The rest of the world sees this and they think he’s a joke too. Impeach and imprison.

From what I understand, he always wanted to be part of the top echelon in NYC society and tried every embarrassing method to get there. Never worked for him.
