So how does America's top diplomat criticize America's new most high-profile diplomat? Diplomatically, as it turns out:
- “Dennis Rodman was a great basketball player,” John Kerry tells Andrea Mitchell, reports NBC News. “And as a diplomat, he is a great basketball player. And that’s where we’ll leave it.”
For the most part, the secretary of state and the White House have avoided going after Rodman over his North Korea trip, notes the
Wall Street Journal. Instead, they've focused criticism on Kim Jong Un's regime for spending money on entertainment and nukes while its people suffer. (Rodman, meanwhile, is still
feeling the love for Kim.)
