Just what we needed. Dennis freaking Rodman.
According to this, Dennis Rodman (AKA Kim Jong-suck’s BFF) will be in Singapore during President Trump’s highly anticipated meeting with North Korea’s Kim Jong-un. Word has it he may “play some sort of role in the negotiations.”

DENNIS RODMAN MIGHT BE NEGOTIATING WITH KIM TO GIVE UP HIS NUKES. WHAT IS HAPPENING?
You can’t even make this stuff up.
“The Worm” will arrive in the country a day before the June 12 sitdown — and sources said he could even play some sort of role in the negotiations.
“No matter what you might think about his presence. One thing’s for sure the ratings will be huge,” a source said. “A lot of times in situations that involve complex diplomacy countries like to identify ambassadors of goodwill and whether you agree with it or not Dennis Rodman fits the bill.”
Question– who approved this? Do you think the Trump administration actually requested his presence? Or did Rodman ask and they approved? I mean, I could totally see Trump approving something like that. Couldn’t you?
It sounds like Rodman’s rep is playing it cool.
Darren Prince, Rodman’s rep, said no trip to Singapore had been confirmed but that The Worm would be willing to go if his expertise were needed.
“He’s talked about it, but no final trip or plans have been made,” he said. Prince marveled at the treatment Rodman got years ago when he first decided to visit the North at Kim’s invitation.
“It seemed like everyone [in the US] turned on him and now things seem to be happening, so he’s just happy it’s happening. He’s just hoping for a great historic outcome,” Prince said.
There’s a very good chance Rodman will be there.
