Those on the Left afflicted with Trump Derangement Syndrome might not be fully satisfied by Elton John's response to a question from a Variety reporter at the Toronto Film Festival about the 45th U.S. president using one of his songs as the inspiration for a Kim Jong un nickname.

It's possible the Variety reporter was trying to set up an opportunity for Elton to light up Trump much to the delight of Trump-haters everywhere, but that didn't happen, and you can almost sense the disappointment emanating from the lib entertainment industry.
Watch:
Elton John on his reaction to Donald Trump calling Kim Jong Un “Little Rocket Man”: “I laughed, I thought that was brilliant... I’ve always been friendly toward him, and I thank him for his support. When he did that, I just thought it was hilarious.” https://t.co/QXV9VqAtuT pic.twitter.com/MNhsNzFwlR

This won't exactly end up in a Kamala Harris ad:

We're reminded of a time when politics wasn't always about somebody being "worse than Hitler" or other ridiculous comparisons. Sometimes things are just funny. Good for Elton.
I have a tiny feeling that Variety was a little surprised by Elton John's generosity of spirit. I'm sure they were counting on vitriol when they got generous humor. https://t.co/aGZRp9Lcqd

Oh they thought they had a sound bite for sure.

Many of you might remember that Elton John played at Rush Limbaugh's wedding reception and took a lot of crap for it from the Left. Elton's probably not a Republican, but he's willing to have civil discussions and isn't infected with hate like so many in his industry. This is refreshing.
“I know you’re not a supporter of Donald Trump”
The way these people have to start everything that way. Elton doesn’t seem to have a problem with him

It's really that simple. Too bad the current level of political hatred has to make everything "the end of democracy."
Was it a coincidence that Trump's rally in Wisconsin Saturday started with Elton John's "Funeral for a Friend"? (As heard in the 2nd clip below)
