Too bad. Well, at least Howard X, who looks more like Trump than that jerk Smart-Alec Baldwin isn't being deported.
White said he would remain in Hanoi for the week, though his earlier plans of playing a round of golf and visiting a massage parlour with the lookalike Kim are no longer on the schedule.
That would have been glorious.

At least he is getting some press over it, though it is too bad. They both met up in Singapore and it was pretty cool.

Howard X was deported, White was not. And Howard X doesn't look like Trump, he looks like Kim. Get your story straight, serrano.
Anyways, Alec Baldwin plays a pretty good Trump. What's wrong with satire? How is he a jerk? And why start calling people names? That's pretty "jerky" don't you think?

Sounds like you don’t like people making fun of your dear leader.

Cripes, I meant to say at least Russel White, who looks more like Trump than that jerk Smart-Aleck Baldwin isn't being deported. My apologies. I stand by the rest of my comment though. Baldwin's impersonation of Trump is so over the top, he doesn't look or sound like Trump, he just looks and sounds like some kind of moron.

So, he’s nailed the Trump impersonation.

I can't tell them apart, so he's pretty bang on with his portrayal of the cult leader who inspires unquestioning loyalty and mindless applause.

No, he's nailed himself.

Those close to Trump have called him an idiot and a moron.
They know him better than you or I.

He's exaggerating Trump's mannerisms and tics and sending the mad aul' geezer up a treat. Satire and making fun of leaders has been around forever.
As have been cultists who see satire as an affront to their rulers.
Trump will be consigned to a dark period in America and the world's development. He'll be forgotten, eventually. Satire (whether it's about Kim or Trump) will be around always.

Howard X has a great sense of humor!
Quote: ‘Howard X said he thought he was being deported because the real Kim "has no sense of humor".
His plane ticket back to Hong Kong would also be cheaper for Vietnamese authorities than a flight for White back to his native Canada, he added.’
Excellent!

The reason one is being deported and the other is not is that Kim would have his impersonator kidnapped and killed while Trump would just call his 'sad'. As funny as these guys are, I'd say they're doing this Howard X guy a favor by getting him out of there.
