President Donald Trump urged then-White House press secretary Sarah Sanders to “go to North Korea and take one for the team” after the country’s brutal dictator, Kim Jong Un, winked at her in June 2018 during a summit in Singapore, according to a report Wednesday. “Kim Jong Un hit on you,” Trump told Sanders as they were riding in the presidential limousine on the way to the airport. “He did.
He f—ing hit on you.” The exchange is included in Sanders’ memoir, “Speaking for Myself,” the Guardian reported, citing a copy of the book.
According to the report, Sanders recounted how Kim and Trump met and talked about sports and the North Korean dictator accepted a Tic Tac from the president.
