the parents do!!

Wonder if or how things may have changed??

........"Today I introduced Otto Warmbier's mother Cindy to my mom, Judi. Cindy is focused on bringing some justice to her family - and we are ready to help," Grenell wrote in the caption for a photo he posted to Instagram.

Trump said earlier this year after a nuclear summit with North Korea he does not hold leader Kim Jong Un responsible for Warmbier’s death, a remark that sparked bipartisan outrage.

“We have been respectful during this summit process. Now we must speak out. Kim and his evil regime are responsible for the death of our son Otto. Kim and his evil regime are responsible for unimaginable cruelty and inhumanity. No excuses or lavish praise can change that. Thank you,” the Warmbiers said in a statement in response.
