Dennis Rodman gets emotional after Trump-Kim summit

Former NBA player Dennis Rodman gets emotional talking about the road to the summit between the United States and North Korea.

This is truly a very excellent interview. Maybe it's because I came to know Dennis decades ago and found him a very complex and very gentle guy, but I felt this interview was deep and meaningful. It's worth watching!

And Cuomo asking him ...."what's that on your head" was great (Dennis was wearing a 'Make America Great Again' hat).

I've been instructed on this by a number of good FReepers over the past months. I still don't understand.

Thanks in advance.

I always thought Rodman was more intelligent than his “clown” persona (sorry DR if you are lurking but you know it be True baby!)

Smart and talented and damn funny - who in the heck would reject that combo??

Liberal heads are exploding. CNN's Chris Cuomo is probably going to be nursing a hangover this morning after that interview.

Thank you for your awareness.

Check out the Cuomo/Dennis video. It's powerful.

(snip) --- Dec 18, 1988 - It was a promise Rodman kept despite the place it took him: Southeastern Oklahoma State, a small NAIA college in a farm town called Durant.

I hope you get to watch it. I ran into it last night as it happened. I was watching CNN to see how they would treat the great event, and then Dennis came on. Fantastic.

He was tearing up so much at times, and trying to wipe away his tears. I just was wishing he would take off his sunglasses to make it easier to wipe the tears. He never did.

Cool

"CNN's Chris Cuomo is probably going to be nursing a hangover this morning after that interview."

LOL ........ maybe he will.

But, for Cuomo, I thought he was pretty fair.

[a little elbow grease]

Thanks. I’ll work on that.

Coumo tried to belittle him in 2014 for political posturing but rodman fought back in the interview and now cuomo has to eat crow.

and just like that, nobody cares about the 3 idiots, President Trump left behind at the G7.

I wish to hell this part of the interview was played 24/7 on TV, non stop all year..

LOL

Also from the comments under the video:

idris elmi says:

"Dennis rodman has been trying to set this meeting up between north korea and united states for years. Obama brushed rodman off and trump listened to rodman. Congrats dennis."

[lump in the melting pot]

Cuomo looked like he was shitting a pineapple during the interview.

[Dixie Yooper]

The few times I've watched him interview, he always looks like he's about moved to tears. Once Rodman loses it, Cuomo maintains the same look. If he felt like his face looked, he would have been crying with Dennis, instead of trying to edge in his stupid question about Kim's English...

As far as interviews about anything to do with Trump, this was one of Cuomo's best behaved.

Rodman adds some emotion to the summit, you gotta love the guy.

and just like that, nobody cares about the 3 idiots, President Trump left behind at the G7.

I don't know how he does it. He made Merkel, Macron and the junior Castro look like aggressive panhandlers.
