Former President Donald Trump has “dictator FOMO” as Russia’s Vladimir Putin and North Korea’s Kim Jong Un are reportedly set to meet in person, MSNBC’s Nicolle Wallace said on Tuesday.

Trump has repeatedly “publicly gushed over these two autocrats, both of them credibly accused of heinous crimes, usually against their own people,” Wallace reminded viewers in a video shared by Real Clear Politics.

The summit will reportedly center on North Korea’s sale of arms to assist Russia’s invasion of Ukraine.

Kim and Putin’s relationship was one “to keep our eyes on, right?” said Wallace. “Especially as Trump seeks to reclaim the presidency and is currently the Republican front-runner.”

Trump has repeatedly called both men “smart,” even hailing Putin as a “genius” for Russia’s invasion of Ukraine — before later calling the war a “big mistake.”

The former president has also sided with Putin over U.S. intelligence agencies that found Russia interfered in the 2016 election, and boasted about receiving “love letters” from Kim after the initial frosty start to their relationship thawed.
