ukkiwon, also known as World Taekwondo Headquarters, and home of the World Taekwondo Academy, has awarded former U.S. President Donald Trump a 9th Dan Black belt - the highest level attainable by professional martial artists.
The president of Kukkiwon, Lee Dong-seop, went to visit Trump at his home in Mar-a-lago in Palm Beach, Florida this weekend to give him a taekwondo and the coveted black belt.
'I heard that the Donald Trump is highly interested in taekwondo,' Lee said.

Balderdash
If Trump were a fighter, he would still be President
He isn’t because he feared hid enemies blood and wouldn’t fight
Don’t like the guy?? just say so...
Does it hurt to be tat stupid Bert?
I have to disagree with you on that assertion, bert.
He’s pain free. He fits the old saying perfectly…”Ignorance is Bliss!”
Pretty hard for 1 guy to fight the whole system
And the whole system was against him, let’s be honest
Without the blatant cheating in Pennsylvania and Georgia - accomplished only because a lot of people who saw something wrong did nothing - he WOULD still be President, and the Republicans WOULD still control the Senate
Bert knows Trump would kick his butt with kung fu 🤪
Pretty hard for 1 guy to fight the whole system“
It’s pretty damn hard to fight any fight that is worth fighting. History is crammed with leaders who would have, in Trumps position, sounded the tocsin and let loose the dogs etc etc. Trump had tens of millions of Patriots to call upon. He had Right on his side as well. In all likelihood every single person under him that he talked to told him they’d act against him in any fight prompted by the Democrats evil bold move. He should have called upon the American Militia and let them (us) punk out before he walked away. There is either a fight coming to this country or we get down on our knees now. There is no other choice. As boldly as they acted in November when they saw Trump crushing them the demons WILL act again when they have to. Period. Nothing was solved by abandoning the field to them, it was only put off and made a hell of a lot harder. It’s much easier to sound a charge against evil people when they still have the bloody weapon in their drenched hands and fresh evidence all around them of their crime than legitimize them with consent and give THEM the Law and put it all off…till… when?
That’s just nuts bert.
None of whom individually or collectively had the constitutional power or authority of Pelosi or Pence to take the only action, in the moment, that might have corrected the fraudulent presidential election.
That action, of course, was not to overturn anything but rather, in the face emerging post-election compelling evidence, simply to return the certificates to certain states for appropriate reconsideration.
While I disagree with your characterization of Trump I do think the next person we elect to hold the office will have to be fearless and relentless if they are to have any chance of changing things in the District of Corruption. The Swamp is a nasty place and it will take a tough street fighter to survive in it.
Reasserting ourselves and our principles in the face of the controlling liberal bastion in DC is not going to be easy. Its going to take extraordinary courage, dedication and sacrifice. The Left will not be displaced without a major fight. Not sure the average American is willing to support this kind of effort.
Being right is one thing. Having the will to defend it is another.
why is it nuts?
All of his enemies are still alive, out of jail, still on the attack and raring to defeat him again.
He does nothing. He can’t make a deal because they will not deal. He loses, he lost. His enemies are all thill there totally unscathed
Aside from being unwilling to fight, he was a fantastically great President
My son bestowed one of our former students with an honorary TKD Black Belt. He was in the final stages of his battle with cancer. He asked that the belt be buried with him.
To say that a General or Admiral faced with annihilation is not engaging in battle or is unwilling to engage in battle because of a variety of reason such as cost (in money or lives) or chance of success and label him as "not a fighter" is an unfair criticism.
Name me one other modern US President who was a "fighter".
Reagan does not count in this, as his "fight" to even be allowed to function was nowhere near the same thing.
Nothing personal here, burt, I simply see that characterization of Trump as "not a fighter" as a combination of unfair criticism and armchair quarterbacking.
Trump not a fighter?
You just took a one-question aptitude test, and flunked.
I think that's why so many of us like him after seeing Rs like Bush, McLame and Romney get beat up constantly.
Ping... I’m sure that Laz will eventually find this thread and chime in with how ‘adequate’ Donald Trump’s Taekwondo seems, and how superior his ‘Kung Fu’ is in comparison.
