Trump approved payment of $2 million North Korea bill for care of Warmbier: report - Reuters

WASHINGTON (Reuters) - President Donald Trump approved payment of a $2 million bill presented by North Korea to cover its care of comatose American Otto Warmbier, a college student who died shortly after being returned home from 17 months in a North Korean prison, the Washington Post reported on Thursday.

The Post said an invoice was handed to State Department envoy Joseph Yun hours before Warmbier, 22, was flown out of Pyongyang in a coma on June 13, 2017. Warmbier died six days later.
==========================================
I thought it was stated U.S. policy not to give into demands by terrorists or kidnappers. Oh, but this was on Trump's watch, which might explain everything.

I'd could do it for a lot less.
 
So when was it paid? Where was the poutrage at O trading five high ranking Taliban for one worthless deserter who should rightly have been shot in his deserting back.

They don't care. Orange man bad and all that.

Remember these are the same people who fantasized about Trump's youngest son being thrown into a cage with a pedophile.

So don't act too surprised when something adverse to reality comes out of their mouths.
