The love affair between these two unstable leaders has been the best episode of Catfish yet. First the president of the United States and the leader of North Korea played all volatile on social media; then Kim Jong Un had a change of heart and was finally ready to meet with his long-distance lover, but at the last minute Donald Trump got cold feet and sent a โDear Kim Jong Unโ letter. Now Kim has sent a message letting Trump know that heโs still there for him and can meet whenever he wants.

Early Friday morning, Trump sent out this tweet to his love:
โOnly time [...] will tell!โ [Insert vomit face.]ย Trump likely became nervous because he lied about his height, weight and hand size on his Match.com profile, and now he knows that an actual meeting with Kim means thatโs heโs going to be exposed. Something tells me this love affair is still miles apart, although all signs are pointing to Kim in Trumpโs separate bedroomโyou know, the one where his wife isnโt allowedโwatching Netflix.
I canโt with these two crazy kids. The last time I heard anyone speak of two obvious lovers who could never get on the same page was when my mother would listen to โAinโt No Mountain High Enoughโ and talk about the love that could have been between Marvin Gaye and Tammi Terrell.
These two men are infatuated with each other. They obsess over each other and how big the otherโs nuclear weapons are. They brag about it and taunt each other with it.
Just know this: Whether or not Trump is ever going to meet with the North Korean leader has already been decided. It was decided months ago, and all of this back-and-forth on the meeting and whether it will happen is just drama.
Trump loves drama. He thrives on it. In fact, itโs arguably the only thing he does well. Trump even admitted that both North Korea and the United States were playing games over whether theyโd meet.
โEverybody plays games. You know that,โ he told reporters when asked about the ongoing talks, CNN reports. โYou know that better than anybody.โ
So for now the talk about the talk is back on; the president even claimed that the June 12 date is still on the table.
โWeโre going to see what happens. Weโre talking to them now. It was a very nice statement they put out,โ Trump said on the South Lawn of the White House before leaving to give the commencement address at the U.S. Naval Academy in Maryland, according to CNN.
โWeโll see what happens. It could even be the 12th. Weโre talking to them now,โ he said. โThey very much want to do it. Weโd like to do it.โ
Something tells me that Trump already has a rolled-up Forbes magazine with Kimโs name on it.
